short but obligated update

I guess it has been a while since I updated. To be honest, a lot of things in my life have improved. I feel really good because I managed to make a life here when I thought that was never going to happen. I made some friends I like to hang out with, I go to shows sometimes and sometimes I meet strange 35-year-old men that text me for weeks after at those shows, I've learned how to bake a lot of things, survived cleaning checks, I'm doing alright in school as far as I know, and I held a job for three days. (I guess the money situation isn't going to be getting any better for a while)

Elizabeth and I were saying the other day, "you know, for how much of this has sucked, it's gone by pretty fast." I'm coming home for Thanksgiving in about a week and I can't wait to eat real food that I don't have to pay for or cook.
