Into the woods...
I end every entry title with an ellipsis or an exclamation point, don't I? Seems to indicate a manic personality or something. Oh well..!
I've moved! Last night, Jamie handed me off to Jeremy, and after a brief stint at the supermarket we headed back to his place, which is in a fairly remote location. Trees and birds and spiders and all sorts of wildlife surround his home. I was looking forward to going back outside to check out the stars, but I never got around to it since I was busy unloading my stuff and watching Jeremy spill pet feed all over his basement.
This is a great place, but with a decidedly different vibe than Jamie and Andrea's place. It's much quieter, and there are no crazy cats running around (though I do miss the kitties a lot). I think I'll have a lot more time to work on drawing and writing and stuff. Not that I didn't have time to do it at the other house; I was just being lazy there. And chances are I will be just as lazy here, but I at least have to pretend I'm trying, right?
Anyway, yeah, I like it here. This will be the first place where I really have a time crunch, so I'll have to get used to taking in more details on the fly, I guess. Like, for instance, I noticed that birds make a lot of noise. I know, you probably don't believe me. But when you're observant as I am, you notice the little things like that.
I also noticed that the woods are fucking scary as shit at night! Around 11pm, I decided I'd head out to the back deck to have a smoke. Now, Jeremy and Crista don't leave the back lights on at night, but I figured I'd get around okay in the dark. I was monumentally incorrect. See, the woods get DARK. Really dark. Like "can't see an inch in front of your face" dark. But that's not the scary part. I can handle the darkness just fine, and I even managed to not walk into the pool.
It's all the growling and hooting and horrible noises that the dark brings with it. I swear the christ I was surrounded by werewolves. That cigarette didn't last very long at all. Tonight, I'm gonna bring a flashlight and my knife when I got for a smoke. And some silver bullets and holy water and rocket launchers, if I can find any in the basement.
Well, that's it for now.Oh, don't forget to vote for your favorite potato! Polls close at midnight on some day in the future at some point!
