FACT: Life is still really fucking awesome.



The best thing about being constantly awed by the mundane is that my amazement at the fact that I made it up here and have been successful thus far has not yet waned.

Life is god damn awesome, all the dang time. Even when it's weird and hard, it retains its awesome.

I ate with Gabe at the restaurant she works at. Do you understand how lucky I am to not only have so awesome a person as a friend but also as a housemate? She is not only great to spend time with and talk to and have fun with, but my god is she a wonderful cook, both savory and sweet.

A long time ago I thought I would at some point be moving in with Angela, and I was all "oh man, livin' with a chef! Life will be awesome!" Even my okcupid profile still says it, though it's gone from "I'm going to be moving in with a chef" to "My hope is to move in with one". MISSION A-FUCKING-CCOMPLISHED. But the best part is that it isn't all that is awesome about her, not near it in the least.

It just feels like "count your blessings" time, so I guess I will. Dude you guys I have the awesomest house in the world. It's big and it's got a fucking fireplace and skylights everywhere and at night you all get up to go to the bathroom and you walk through the giant walk-in closet with wood floorboards and while you're peeing can hear the rain tapping at the skylight and you feel all happy that the heater works as well as it does. And the kitchen is yours and the living room is yours and everything else in the world seems like it's yours. But it's not just yours, it's your close friend Gabe's as well, and the two of you use it all for cooking adventures and movie-watching adventures and really late nights sitting on floors and chairs talking for a long time.

And then sometimes you get calls from other people wanting to hang out and that is damn well awesome as well. What's fun is hanging out with Ryan and listening to his ideas trying to help play a part in the execution of them. And I guess his friend Jack will be in by next month and I have heard that they together will be unstoppable and Ryan is sure that I would have my place. I may very well not and I am okay with that, but it sounds at the very least interesting and enriching. And then before his phone broke texts and calls from Omar, with whom I could have some of the more wonderful experiences around town, with him as a guide for my entirely unexperienced eyes. He's helping so much to make me feel like this is my city. It's not completely like that yet, but soon we'll see. I'm wrapping my head around it slowly, but my head is ever-malleable and stretchy. Just takes some time!

And god damn Jon for lending me the Fables books, since they are what have me up at 4am typing on here. Every social circle should dream of having him as a pillar! Ahh, the generosity! Ahh the... oh man I was just looking for a better word than "evenhandedness" so I peruse the good ol' thesaurus.com and basically, take a look at this: http://thesaurus.reference.com/browse/evenhandedness Every single one of those is ridiculously applicable to Jon, basically. Ridiculously so.

And Sham! I haven't had much of a chance to spend time with her, and that I feel so crap about! She had one of the biggest hands in getting me up here in the first place! It's amazing how much one little show of generosity and one initial set of open arms can help so much in my achieving something so huge to me. She's wonderful and I am ever-so-glad that she is finally essentially at my fingertips, I just need to utilize this fact much more often!

And god damn, The Definite Articles are MOST DEFINITELY a great reason why life is so awesome. What the fuck guys, DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW GOOD THE MUSIC YOU MAKE IS?! SERIOUSLY, DO YOU? BECAUSE I AM WILLING TO LET YOU KNOW: IT IS REALLY REALLY FUCKING GOOD. I MEAN, REALLY.

God damn. That is not even ALL, you guys. There is so much more to every day life that makes living here so fucking wonderful. It all even makes up for creepy gangsters following me around on my lunchbreaks! AND I SAY THIS WITHOUT SARCASM, OF COURSE!!! Life is awesome and I have never been as justified in saying this as I am at this moment, and I highly doubt that the justification will do anything but grow exponentially.

Life is god damn awesome.
