...on the up-side I'm posting more

Well. Day 1. Not the greatest day, but made it through.

Positives: some people clued in pretty quick and were supportive; I have some friends in the city after all. Also a few farther flung ones (thanks for the good thoughts).

Negatives: Incapable of doing work. One of my classmates has just become 'officially' a boyfriend and is feeling great, expects me to understand the greatness of being with someone you love. Had to hear my dad say 'I told you so' in not so many words.

Interesting things: Many people couldn't see anything was wrong. My teachers kept their distance today, I think their spider-sense was tingling.

Should get to bed, following wholly unproductive evening. Up at 5 to take picture of sunrise, fuckin' A. Before I do, I should say that I understand. It makes me sad and maybe a little frustrated, but I understand.

"Home - is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home - she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from another
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time, before we were born
If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be"

On to day 2...
