The Wee Democracy

It's raining today.

i read riqui's blog and he makes reference to days when its a bit overcast and it actually boosts his mood. i'm a bit the same way, and that's one of the things that i'm curious in an excited way about moving to iowa.

i'm really scared about moving, but at least i don't feel the same sense of unknowing as i did before. oh sure, i'm uncertain about my future in the midwest, but at least i have a skeletal plan right now. i also began looking into apartments, making phone calls and the like. one guy offered me a 700 sq. foot joint for a shade under 400 dollars. if you knew the shoebox i lived in in austin, you'd realize that this is unfuckingbelievable.

so, i'll have to go to cedar rapids for a few days again to pick out a place to live, then back to dallas, then back to austin to pick up various pieces of furniture, then back to cedar rapids....to live. and work. i haven't forgotten about that part.

i'm also thinking about how i want to decorate my little desk area, too. i figure i might put up a little cowboy jack antenna ball, to keep my dallas spirit going. i'm also, most definitely going to need to buy some sort of mavs merchandise to put on my desk, so i can shut all those iowa folks up when it comes to basketball. longhorns gear too. those foos don't know who they fuckin with...

i'm also very hungry and i can't help but feel that my mom is a bit on the ignorant side when it comes to my appetites. she suggests things like broccoli and spinach casserole. i wonder if i really sprung from her womb sometimes. we don't even like the same movies

i'm moving to iowa....weird.



feeling: calm and excited at the same time
thinking of: "once upon a time in mexico" -- it opens tomorrow
