you know how sometimes, after a big change/transition, things will go well for a while and then all of a sudden you get hit by this big wave of emotion?
well, i graduated and started work. i've been living in this house for about a week now, and i just now got hit by a wave of nostalgia. of longing to be in a dorm full of people, with all of my friends within walking distance.
i'm lonely, and at this very minute, there's absolutely nothing i can do about it but go to bed and hope to find my cell phone in the morning.
damnit.

My consolation is that I get a hell of a lot more done living away from the bustle. A little bit at a time I'm reading books that used to terrify me. I can spend a day gardening, at first out of boredom but at the end full of inspiration.
But you can see that this might be how wars start ("lets all go blow shit up") and why barflies/alcoholism are so established (at the bar there's always at least a bartender for company).
If I do enough in the day to be tired by the end then the nights aren't bad. Friends within biking distance still never hurts...
Good luck.
P.S. Are heritage flakes anything like grapenut flakes? I'd kill for some grapenut flakes just now. With ricemilk, of course
