  Today has been the greatest day. I put a deposit on a new apartment. A new, nice apartment with no snakes or bugs or leaks. And I can paint. I cleaned out some drawers in the name of moving. I talked to my parents and Abby. I had bratwurst and mac and cheese for dinner. It doesn't get much better. Everything seems worlds better now that I know for sure I'm going to be here for awhile and that I'll be living in a place I like. That's one thing taken care of. Hoo-ray.
