Healing.

Last week I felt great.  Like really great.  I wasn't sick, I had some energy, and I slept plenty.  But yesterday, everything went back to mono grossness.  Well, it was actually the night before.  I started getting a cough, and then boom.  Feel like death. 
I'm already feeling better, a whole day of sleep seems to do that for me.  But I just can't help being annoyed that I am still dealing with this.  I know mono takes a long time to get over, but I don't have time to give up.  I have three bags of pasta to last me to the end of the month.  Oh, and a bag of oranges. 
Don't worry, though, my bear friend matty likes to try and fatten me up :) And since I'm not doing anything physical, I really don't need as much food. 

I was hoping that my poor college student days were over, but the poor seems to continue.  Oh well. 

Even with being sick almost constantly, I seems to have an overall better feeling about life.  At least better than I did a few months ago.  I'm not saying that I am over everything, in fact I'm still dealing with a lot of it.

I was looking at apartments the other day, and realized that I am actually scared to live alone.  To be honest, if Jonathan hadn't been there when the crackheads showed up I wouldn't have known what to do.  I was terrified even living with a guy.  Obviously I'm not moving to that particular neighborhood, and I would move to a building with secure entry, but I know first hand that drug addicts don't only live in certain neighborhoods.  Friends of mine were chased by a methhead with a fourteen inch knife in shoreview... a nice suburb.  It can happen anywhere, and I seem to be having a bit of bad luck lately... so the idea of a roomate is sounding a little better.  The problem with that is that 1) I don't know anyone that I would want to live with, and 2) I don't want to be financially tied to anyone for a very very very very long time.  I want to be independent.  In fact, I don't want to rely on a man in any way.  I am okay with relying on my friends and my family, and having them rely on me... but relationshipwise, that may take a little longer,
Well, just thought I would give a bit of an update...
oh, and I am going to be doing part time temporary PR for a really small company!  Exciting!  More experience :)
