One of the most challenging parts of dealing with my health situation is having to move in with my grandparents. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate them taking me in and taking care of me and feeding me and helping with me money when i needed it. I love them so much and they have gone above and beyond what anyone could to to take of me.. However, they live in a small apartment, are older, and have a their routines and their stuff and their things. I am 30, and even though I am in poor health and not really out doing all that much stuff, I can't really do what I want to do while living here. I can't have friends over, I could never bring a girl over here (which really hasn't been much of anything I've wanted to do all that bad, but still), and understandably, my grandparents get upset over things like coming home late, or basically doing whatever autonomous thing I choose to do as an adult.
Alas, on Monday, I will be moving into my new place with my good friends Sunshine and Greg. As sick as I was, I didn't participate at all in the house hunt, so tonight was the first time I saw the place. I have to say, it was the nicest house I ever saw in Oakland. My new room is cozy, and has the potential to be the perfect space that I have been lacking really since July because while I appreciated livning at the Hive, I never really made my room my own and I got so sick so fast that I was rarely there. I am really looking forward to moving in, having my own space, which I hope will ease my anxiety. Sunshine and Greg have already moved in, so I got to catch up with Sunshine for a minute. She got a new job at a bar not far from our house, which is leading to me getting a new dj gig over there, and allegedly I may have another new gig lined up at Pop's over in San Francisco. I am super excited about branching out into new places and, of course, stacking that paper.
On the health front, not much else has changed except my insomnia has gotten worse, and I'm pooing in a weird colors. I haven't gotten an MRI date, which means I haven't gotten a surgery either. So again, another stagnant holding pattern.
I will say, however, that over the past few days, I have seen some of the greatest sides of some of the greatest people, some of them new, some of them old. I have some incredible creative projects in the fire. I cant wait to get them going.
Each day the outlook gets better. I added another chapter of my book tonight. I can't wait to write about that.
I'd like to thank the following people for being fucking awesome to me this week: Koji, Mingo, Danielle, Carl, Chloe T, Beckah R, Sunshine, Paisley, Mary, Grace B, Grace A, Cang, Jack, Leanne, Carl at Action PR, and you the reader. See you tomorrow.
