On Everything Changing Soon

Well, I am just over 2 weeks away from starting school and of course now is the time that everything changes.

My roommate of 2 1/2 months moved out this week after being the worst roommate in history. So now I am left with a filthy apartment and tons of dishes that he was hoarding in his room and no way to do them since I have a cast-thing on my right wrist from my surgery last week (that went well, btw, more later). I am definitely moving out of my apartment and into a studio or a roomshare by the end of April and therefore must pack, clean, repaint and sell all my stuff in the next month (ZOMG!).

Actually, I came up with a solution for most of the major stuff. This Tuesday I will be meeting with a girl who will probably be moving into my spare room for the month of April and she will be helping with all the dishes/cleaning/painting in exchange for rent. That will take a lot of the pressure off, I think. My mom has also offered to come for a few days the week I start school and help me pack, ship and sell stuff. While I am sure I'll probably regret it by the end of her stay, I am actually ok with accepting her help at this point. I'm feeling quite overwhelmed and in need of familial support.

The surgery on my wrist went well last week. It was very quick and except for some swelling, I haven't had a lot of problem with it. My friend Heath came and rescued me from the hospital and very nicely sat on the couch and watched movies with me all day in my semi-drugged state. On Saturday I flew to San Francisco and visited my wonderful best friend and her family. They were great to me and let me get away with not doing anything and Onyia even washed my hair for me (<3!). I get my cast thing off on the 13th and then I'll be back in my regular brace after that, but everything should be functional. The cast is annoying and it makes it look like I've broken my arm; the thing is HUGE!

I have really been loving going to Rockband Tuesdays at the bar downtown. It's a lot of fun and besides me and Doc, a whole new group of our friends show up every week. I will miss it for the 2 months that I won't be able to go after school starts!

It's going to be a crazy month...or 6...but it should be fun!
