I found an apartment. Yay! It’s smaller and more expensive (bonus) than the other place I applied for, but they accepted my credit and the location is really good. I move in on April 19, and I’ve already started planning a party.

After several “where am I going in life?” conversations with Rania, Christy, and Katherine, I’ve officially decided to go back to school. I’ll apply to a few PhD programs, all to schools within 3 hours of home—Kentucky, Louisville, Vanderbilt, Purdue, IU, and Cincinnati. I’m celebrating my new found purpose in life by continuing to temp at UofL.

Seeing old friends has definitely been one of the best parts about being back in Louisville. The facts may change (Rania’s married, Jeremy soon will be) but everyone is mostly the same. Minus the high school-ness. So all in all, I’m feeling good about my decision to move south. The weather’s better, the people are nicer, the friends are in abundance. Fuck you, Wisconsin.
