starting to think about writing about the transition

i really am at a loss for words... i feel like i should be overflowing with them, but i am empty... tons of emotions, but few descriptors for them... i left the northwest a little over a week ago... i've cried a little, but not near the tears i thought i would have cried... just one or two, here and there... i guess it's surreal... i still have a ton of questions... i don't know why i'm here a lot of the time... i still have everything in boxes stacked in my room... but i don't have furniture, so nothing is going anywhere... i just haven't gotten anything done... we've done something every night, and night time would be the best time to get stuff done...

i hate when i ramble...

the road trip was different than i expected - and different than erin expected, too... for me, it was a means to an end... i didn't feel the need to dilly-dally in places for longer than we needed to... i was ready to get on the road and get it over with... so we made it in 3 days, which was awesome... alyssa made us a journal to write stuff down in - and erin did most of the writing (because i did most of the driving)... so i don't have a lot of my thoughts written down, but at the same time, i've let my mind kind of block some of the things i should be thinking...

i'm still kind of in vacation-mode... it hasn't really sunk in that i live here now... i am loving not having anything to do, but i know i need to find a job very soon... i love sleeping in and not really having any responsibility besides checking the mail and maybe making dinner...

i picked up an application for starbucks today...

i'm going to stop now and try to journal the thoughts i wish i could describe on a different day...
