Okay, so I haven't really started yet, but I thought this journal should start where I start, and that is Acton, MA. Unfortunatly, there is no stock picture of it on this site, so that is why DC is displayed. That is okay, I feel just as connected to DC as I am to Acton. I had hoped to work at my usual post of waitress (sorry--the politically correct term is server but who are we kidding here?) but my manager forgot to put me on the schedule this week. I have been sitting around my house and reading books, taking my dog for walks, sitting in my hammock and while that all sounds well and good, I am kind of bored. There is a sick part of my brain that likes sleep deprivation and endless piles of work and papers that need to be done yesterday.

So far I have not unpacked from moving myself out of my sophomore year of college. The boxes lay untouched in my room, and my suitcases are only disturbed by my need to find a shirt to wear. My mom has been a little annoyed at the fact that I have not been unpacking...Now that I have missed out on the second week of not being on the schedule, I am going to get going on my own personal projects I guess.

I guess I shouldn't be complaining, this is going to be the most rest I get for a long time. I have sunrises and airport layovers to look forward to.
