Everything is in boxes, my car half full of them. Tomorrow my father will help me strap an armchair to the roof. Tomorrow I'll have my white walls and plastic bed. We cooked dinner together, drank white wine ( Read more... )

My cousin is writing a blog for some queer journal and she gets paid extra if enough people read it. So please do so! At least the first paragraph....

Johnny Depp won a golden globe for Sweeney Todd and Sweeney Todd won best film! There is justice in the world!!!

I did laundry last night, but somehow missed that the dryer was broken. I spent the morning trying to dry my clothes with a hair dryer and am now left with very damp, very stiff clothes. Except for my sweater and jeans which are very stiff and very wet. I had to put everything in my suitcase just the same and am hoping that it won't be disgusting ( Read more... )

Everyone I know needs to get skype. It only takes a second to download and then we can talk as much as we want for FREE! Please? Do it for me!

It's strange to think that it wasn't long ago that I was home. Now I live with a new family who seem to like me well enough, but who haven't given me a key. The house is beautiful although I sometimes have the feeling that I am in a museum. There is a garden in back with a fountain, 4 cats and the most beautiful dog.

I'm in a sort of non-place now. Although my evening has been wonderful, I ended up with much less time to pack than I had been expecting. Even though I've been getting ready all week, it didn't seem to make much of a difference. I was running around the house ealier, shoving pens I won't need into my suitcase, and everything else of mine in the ( Read more... )

So, I've spent most of my time home dicking around, seeing friends, watching TV, and doing, well not much. Today it struck me that they're might not actually be time to do all that I need to get done. I uh, also still don't have a visa. It should be coming in the mail any day, but not having it is terrifying. This time next week I'll be on a plane ( Read more... )

I have to walk over the suitcases in my room. I try to pack a few things a day. I try to stare at the suitcases themselves so the sight of them isn't shocking. In a week, I am leaving for France. All my family friends treat me like some kind of jetsetter-New York, New Orleans, Oregon, New Hampshire, Vermont. France. I'm not sure if I like to travel ( Read more... )

I've been in New Orleans for six weeks now. I spent most of that time without internet and when you come right down to it, without electricity or running water too. I kept thinking that when I had a computer I would say everything that has happened so far, but I just can't bring myself to do so. I'm going home a week early because I'm tired of the ( Read more... )
