Fly Little Wing

So I've been in Chicago for a week now, but things have been odd for the last three weeks or so. I had my wisdom teeth out and then fell terribly ill with some derivation of strep throat/tonsillitis. It should say something that I spent two weeks on the couch without even thinking about updating. But now I am back to the real world and moving in to my new apartment. It's crazy to think about all the things that must be done in the course of moving! I just keep buying things, and I don't even know if they're the right things. I also want to make sure this place feels like home, and I want to find the random things that are somewhere in the chaos. But as out of control as it can sometimes feel, this place is beginning to feel homey. As I continue to meet nice people and be productive, I realize how out of it I have been and how nice it is to be in the world again.

Hello

Hello from Chicagoland. I've been out in my new apartment for nearly a week. And it's beginning to come together.
