The Best Laid Plans...

Don't always work out. So that is why I try not to make them. A thought for the moment.

Finally moved. It is strange. Kind of lonely. I haven't a day to myself really yet cause of work, going on a basically free date, and subsequent food poisoning. But now sitting here, I get this feeling of being the only person in the building. I only run in to a few other tenants on rare occasions. I might see some more tonight if I decide to do some laundry tonight like I ought to do. I miss my cat. I miss having people around that I know well even if we didn't talk all the time. It hasn't even been a week yet. I am not feeling homesick, I know what that feels like.

I meant to go to my parents' church one last time before I vamoosed off to the Emerald City like Dorothy. Maybe attempt to yank a few old walls down before tipping my hat good-bye. That sort of thing. Not to start anything. Only to leave something of a subtle reminder. Maybe I will drop by before classes start in the the fall. In that down time between when work ends and they start. I dunno. I still have that temptation to just send a hey or hi to the Chorus Girl. But I am not sure what would come of it nor am I sure that I want to know. The previous olive branch was taken, inspected then tossed over the trench-coated shoulder of the German with a guarded, defensive manner. More than I was expecting from it, but not what I had entirely wished for. Like I said before, if they don't want to talk, you can't really make them.

I started writing this with something else in mind, but now I have completely forgotten what it had been. Hmmm. Oh. In other, much less serious, news! I have rediscovered my love for fanfiction as nerdy as that sounds. I might even pick up working on my own original work that I started in like ninth grade, which was originally based on a sort of weird paranormal thing or at least that was the intention in my mind. After reading it again a few weeks ago, it is more Alice in Wonderland than anything. So I am going to go down that path with it and see what happens. Pretty sure I am going to make Wonderland something different than the Carroll version or the versions that I have seen of it. Might even pull in some Labyrinth influences if I can manage it.

I need to stop procrastinating and go start in on some laundry. I am so good at being distracted.
