We Will Become Silhouettes

As fiction becomes reality, we become the objects in our dreams.

a new routine

I'm getting settled into a new place. A lot has been going on recently, and for the time being, my husband and I are separated. I'm hopeful that this is just a temporary break for both of us to get things together and learn to be a little more mature. If anyone feels like ranting about and listening to me rant about separation issues, feel free to email me.

So, I'm in Oregon, at my parent's house, and I'm going to be looking for work. First things first though, I need a comfortable place to sleep, leave my things, and conduct personal time wasting activities. Fortunately, I can have a room to myself. Unfortunately, it's not very big and it has a lot of stuff already in it. Fortunately, my parents are pretty flexible, and didn't mind me moving some things out so that I could have some space for my stuff. Unfortunately, we couldn't completely clean out the closet because they just don't have anywhere else to put this stuff.

My new room makes me feel a little strange. It's weird being back at my parent's house after so long. It's also a little weird because they've moved since the last time I lived with them. Even though I've visited them and seen this house since then, it's not the same place I grew up. Not even in the same town. Of course, right now, I'm feeling like that's a good thing, since I don't have to worry about running into people from high school. I've got enough room for a bed, a dresser, a table, and I'll probably bring a comfortable chair in here. It's homey, and livable. The only thing missing is my husband.

In any case, I'm lucky to have a fairly comfortable room, a place to store my stuff, and not too many bills to worry about for the time being. As long as I get a job soon, I'll be fine with money. I'm just a little reluctant to look for work, I hate the whole job search process. But it must be done.
