| | Nathan moving away from home... take 3! (Maybe I'll get it right this time)
Well... it looks like I'm not going to be online very often for the forseeable future... So this will be a long one.
People actually hearing my thoughts on life has caused so many arguments, yelling fits, and general bitching... So noone's going to hear shit. Hell, I wish there was a way to block individual people from reading it. Anyways, I will say that Tanya and I were never more unhappy than when we were at Dad's. Countless nights I'd come home from work to Tanya sobbing in bed, and the only consolation I could give her was a shrug, sorry, and "We'll leave soon, I promise." I'll say that people's feelings don't really seem to matter very much at my former house. It was a house where a grudge could be held for EIGHT DAYS over a nickel sized BBQ sauce stain on a kitchen counter. And by grudge I mean grudge holder not saying a single vaguely friendly thing those entire eight days because of said mess. We were so stressed, so unhappy. It ended when I was told Professor Brain was either staying outdoors all day, every day (where he would die), or kept in a crate the majority of the day. Fuck that, I'd sooner be homeless. You can do whatever you want to me, degrade me in whatever manner possible... but you don't fuck with the Professor, damn it! 
We decided to leave, found a place, and started moving in before 24 hours had passed. Emily's one of the sweetest people I know. I used to see her so rarely, and no I remember why I liked her so much. :) She didn't bat an eye when I asked if we could move in. She didn't ask what we'd pay in rent, or how much stuff we had... "Sure, come on over whenever!" She's so benevolent.
And things are SO much better there! I've had more energy, I mowed their lawn, we did major cleaning in several rooms, bought utensils and a telephone and cleaning supplies... I'm just, I dunno... enthusiastic again. I'm enjoying life. There have been wild parties, long, meandering philosophical debates... I've made new friends and reaquainted with old ones... Amy's opened up a lot to me lately, and that's been great. I like it there.
I miss Barton and his bad movie and geek jokes (That day he came home in a Storm Trooper suit was priceless ), I miss my sister, who has to be the biggest Beast Brigade fan ever. It was really fun sharing a room with you, Rachel. I think this time around we actually became real friends; close ones at that. We WILL keep in touch. Evey and Sammy were great, when they didn't seem to dislike us... I loved their ferrets and their drawings and their downright giddy attitudes that they had at times. :) Kimmie I'll miss hanging out with as much... I'm just glad we left after she got healthy again. If I'd moved while she was still in the hospital I'd be so worried... I hope she knows I love her. And Dad. I want to thank you for being so infinitely patient with me. Do you have my current phone number? I'll call soon. You've inspired so much in me... I may not be rich or successful in any career, but you made me want to reach my goals. I'm married to a girl I've chased for eight years, and I finally accomplished my lifelong goal of becoming a professional wrestler. All in the same year, to boot! I'm very happy with life, and I know I owe a lot of it to you. If you ever want to drop everything and move to Panama, I'll help you in any way I can. I know I may not have been the most pride inspiring child on earth, but you've raised a happy one. There is very very little missing in life. I'll miss seeing you so often... come over if you ever want to have that drinking party you suggested. Love you.
Let's see... 17 minutes on the Library's computer left... let me see what I can cover. I wrestled last Saturday, hurt my finger pretty badly, but I had a lot of fun. Nate Static the drug fiend was a fun character. I can't wait for the next UHPW show, if indeed I'm allowed to continue wrestling there...
In general... things are looking up. Very much so. :) |
