I am having a problem. A pretty big one. I live in a small town. I live alone. And by alone, I mean ALONE. I don’t know anyone in town that I am not related to. Also, the people I am related to are old. I don’t know anyone my age. The people I go to school with are mostly a LOT younger than me or a lot older. They don’t live here.
My problem is that I don’t have any friends anywhere near me. It’s very tiring. That’s probably a weird way to describe it, but I need to see people, and I don’t really get to. I don’t really know how to resolve this, either. It’s not like it was in college with interesting people around everywhere. I met people at Wal-Mart, for goodness sake! I went to Wal-Mart last night, not only did I not see anyone my age, I also could not find the Exacto-Knife I went for. My Wal-Mart is SO crappy, they don’t even carry Exacto-Knives.
I know I’m better off here than I was in Fayetteville. I at least have my family nearby, but that’s just not enough.
Sorry about the whiny post. I’m just really unhappy about this and needed to share.

Nothing's Up
I wanted to write today, but I have nothing to say. I don't have a test tomorrow, which is weird because we have had a test almost every Monday this semester. I normally study on Sunday, so I'm kind of at a loss today. My parents were here this weekend, and they just left to go camping. I'm going to take Mamaw to them on Tuesday. That's boring.
I'm finally watching the last ERs. I'm about five away from the finale right now.
I have to draw some kidneys.
I bought a crossword puzzles book, but they are too easy.
Isn't there some kind of gambling that is lawful for 18 year-olds?
My TiVo is recording a movie on HBO right now. I don't get HBO.
Maybe something will come up that I feel like writing about soon.

Once Again Into the Breach
She's back for another try. Blogging from the couch and a heated blanket. Watching Chuck, the best new show around. Eating chili because it's delicious. Wearing a watch.
Well, that's a pretty good update, don't you think?
JUST KIDDIN'!!!
For reals though, I'm living in the Taylor and going to Nursing School. I have a lot of spare time these days because school only takes up a few hours a week, but those hours are so scattered that I can't have a real job. Maybe next semester the hours will be more consolidated. So, for work, I clean Mamaw's house and do odd jobs for people. I'll mow, fix a computer, call the phone company, or whatever needs to be done that my old relatives can't do. Works out well.
I'm bored a lot. I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in my age range in a 10 mile radius, and I don't know anyone outside of that radius. I still read a lot, just not as much as before because I have to read school books now. School books are boring. I think if authors of novels were hired to write school books, students would be more successful.
Roxie is great. She stays at Mamaw's house while I'm in school and plays with her dog Tommy. Tommy is 9 years old, so he can't really keep up, but they still have lots of fun. She goes on walks with me some, but she can't handle more than a mile. She gets really thirsty and has to stop every five minutes to tinkle. Just like my mom, come to think of it.
I'll try to remember that I have a blog and post again.
