So..yeah. I finally moved into my apartment yesterday. Not really my apartment...My room, I guess you could say.
Anyhow, things are going well.
I've decided to go vegetarian. For now I'm just avoiding meat, but after about a month I'm hoping to go vegan altogether. I've seen some fucked up shit.

Possibly the most disturbing thing ever. I couldn't even make it past the poultry segment.
Not only is there the political aspect of going vegan, but there's the health aspect, as well. Most people ASSUME that we need meat to maintain our health. I was one of those people.
The average cholesterol level of a meat-eater is about 210, whilst that of a vegan is about 133. Not only that, but vegans are about 60% less susceptible to cancer. There are a lot of other benefits to going vegan.
Granted, there are worries of protein and iron deficiency, but that can be helped with supplements...lots and lots of supplements.
I went to the doctor the other day. Seems I've got another tract infection. Last summer my infections led to a kidney infection. I was delirious. My fever was up to 104 at one point. I was crying for my mother, the last person on the planet I would usually want to see.
However, the wonderful solithan took care of me while I was sick in Philadelphia. He gave me plenty of fluids, refused to give me more blankets, and held me as I wept.
Ha...I remember at one point saying, "Come and give me a hug..."
To which he replied, "You only want me for my body warmth!"
It was true at that time...to a certain extent.
ANYHOW, I'm taking meds now, which sucks.
I love you fools.
(ps) I'm getting my straight-edge tattoo soon.
