Nights alone are weird. Especially exceptionally nice ones like tonite.

I'm such a baby.

Mmm... best dinner I've made myself in ages. Instant mushroom broth with fresh shitakes, cellophane noodles, bean sprouts, and lots of chili oil. Its pretty base stuff, I know, but I'm one of those girls that avoids the kitchen like the plague. I didn't used to be that way - my mom is German, so I was all but raised in the kitchen. I wonder...

I saw strange roadkill on my way to work today. Not garden variety possums and raccoons, like all of us from the South Bay are used to, but a deer, a barn owl, a duck, a jackrabbit, and a store-bought chicken. (Well, that wasn't really roadkill, but worth mention) It must be the moon, something. So thoughtless.... I've managed to never murder anything with my...

I feel so uninteresting lately.

I think I used to have intelligent- sometimes even witty - things to contribute to conversation. Maybe its due to the fact that I'm not in school anymore, nor do I work with people that are particularly politcal, or artsy or intelligent, or of any interest at all, really.

Figment will be here at some unspecified time tomorrow. I'm completely stoked about seeing her. Its been almost a year..
Thanks to Neko for being totally...

I need to get on with my packing, but Anais has made such a cozy little spot on my lap, that I don't have the heart to move her. I only meant to take a five minute break, honest. (Fig!)

So I took a short drive this evening... I enjoyed the nice, balmy sunset. I realized that this may very well be my last springtime...

So we're waiting to hear back about our apartment application. Its a little stressful, like a job interview. Fig leaves Texas on Friday, and should hit California by Sunday. If all goes well, thats our move-in date. Wish us luck... if we don't get this one, I'm afraid it means a couple nites on the floor of my studio apartment for Fig! (and she broke...
