06.29.09: Homeless

As the title reflects, I am in a way "homeless." The house where I currently live got all of its floors ripped up, replaced, and recarpeted this weekend. This in turn meant I had to pack up EVERYTHING from my room and move it from the house, only to have to bring it back as soon the work is finished. We'll see if I get to move back in tomorrow... Maybe...

However, I have had a fantastic time staying with Christine during this ordeal. I love her bunches and am so glad to have fantastic friends like her who are helping me! Adam and Conner both were generous enough to offer me space at their homes to store my belongings. Honestly, as I said, I feel so blessed that the Lord has granted me such wonderful people in my life that are willing to help me so greatly!

As per other doings, after a rather dull and stressful week, I have a rather sleepless but completely fantastic weekend! Friday night consisted of hanging out at Conner's place until the wee hours of the morning, mostly chatting with friends. A lot was talked about that night and I hope that things said were taken to heart. I really love my friends and PAC has become so close. Dynamics have changed recently, but as people are creatures that evolve as time goes on, there's no reason why this wouldn't happen. I have to say, I don't know if the things that have occurred are necessarily bad. Of course some actions have hurt, but others have brought to light true feelings. We'll see...

Saturday night proved to be such debauchery! Haha! (Just kidding...) Conner, Christine, and I went to Crickets to see some of the Buddy Holly Story cast and ended up being treated to a mini-concert of Dean and Matt! It was fantastic! After that little soiree, we headed over to join a little shindig with the people from Tech's Summer Rep. There was a rousing game of King's Cup (Which I love playing being I use Coke, which means I remain much more coherent than any others involved! Haha!) After there was just a lot of people standing around and chatting until we rounded up a crew to head out to Josie's for some EARLY morning breakfast! YUM! I had a great time getting to chat with Dean while there. I'm so sad he's leaving in less than a week! However, I'm quite excited for him as well. (He is getting married after all! YAY!)

Sunday was quite the day as well. It marks the ending of "Cheaper by the Dozen" at LCT. Miss Brill has been put to rest. Hurray! Anyway, we finished the show and strike followed. I completely forgot how much I enjoy tearing down sets! Haha! Seriously, though, I love getting a drill gun in hand and getting after it. Fantastic... After that, it was a rather relaxing day. There was a wonderful surprise, courtesy of Christine: a CAKE celebrating the closing of "Cheaper..."! Unfortunately, she tried to write "Congrats" on the cake, and instead ended up with "Con fail"! Hilarious! I added to it with a "Helen Keller Fail" on the side of the cake. We took it over to Conner's house that evening and they enjoyed some while we watched the 3rd Harry Potter movie. I enjoyed the cinematography for the film. The director and DP did a FANTASTIC job on the film. I digress...

Today (Monday), has been MUCH more mellow. Work was busy and then I headed over to check on a rent house that's opening up soon. To be honest, I'm not good with roommates. I don't share well. Growing up, I was the one that always got a room to myself, while my sister shared a room with my brothers. On top of that, I realize I'm not the tidiest of people. Clutter is a part of my life. Having to worry about cleaning up is not exactly the most thrilling of prospects for me. We'll see if I can manage finding a new place. Anyway, after meeting this rather befuddled woman, I headed back to Christine's and her lovely mother cooked dinner! Delicious! Later was workout time and boy did it feel good to get out and run again. I honestly don't understand why people don't love it? There's just something so free and primal about getting out and pushing your body physically. The sweat, pain, and breathing... Gorgeous.

Anyway, I sit here now, typing, off and on, chatting to friends. I've been doing a lot of thinking and contemplating lately. Mainly about the future and it's holdings. Secondly about myself and who I am. It's weird. I say a lot of things and at the time, I feel that I mean them. However, not 30 minutes later, I can see myself in a completely different light. It bothers me at times how fickle I am, but yet, I love that part of me. The chameleon. Unfortunately, this does not bode well for planning or committing... both to plans and to people. Granted, this is neither the time nor place to elaborate, but there's so much on my chest I want to get out. So much freedom I want to grasp hold of. Unfortunately, I don't have the wings yet to fly. So I wait. Sitting, pondering, growing, hoping that when they are ready, I can let go.
