Update

So, work has been pretty up and down, but seems to be getting better. I got put on the day shift, and so far its a lot less stress than nights. Typically I have been talking to M once a day or more, but the past two days this has not been true. Had some friends over last night and we hung out and drank all night, so was pretty hungover today. Glad to be feeling better now, though, and ready to go back to work lol. I need to have something to structure my days around. Have signed Tiko up for training and am excited to begin lessons in a few weeks.

Watched Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead and Lizz and I bought a juicer as a result! I recommend the movie to all! If you have Netflix you can stream it. I will be doing a three-day fast eating only raw fruits and vegetables, replacing one meal with juice, daily.

Watched Into the Wild tonight and liked it. Was intruiged by the young man's story. Talked in therapy about how I only feel truly peaceful when I'm completely surrounded by nature. Realizing now, though, that that was not strictly true. M has given me a lot of peace, often. I do know, though, that I want to live in a small town. I want to live in an area like the Highlands, where I grew up. I miss knowing the country like I do there, and being able to escape when I need to.

Perhaps I should try church for some peace in the meantime...
