So it’s been a while since I blogged. But for most of that time, nothing exciting really happened. That changed a lot within the last week or so. Last Saturday I moved into my apartment. It’s a big 1 bedroom in Bloomington. It has a nice little patio out the back door with about 20 feet of grass and then a small wooded area. When I got home tonight and was walking in there were 2 deer in my back yard. It will be perfect to just go out the back door and walk the dogs (which I get back on Sunday). On site it has a 24 hour fitness center, which includes a racquetball court (no need for a membership to the Y anymore), and an indoor heated pool and hot tub.
When I moved in I adopted one of the cats back. I had stopped into the shelter a couple of weeks earlier and asked them if they still had any of them, they still had all 3. I asked them which was the least likely to be adopted and they told me Spazz. Apparently he was very stand offish and wouldn’t let people pet him. So he’s my new roommate. I was worried about how he would adapt, because I was never his favorite, but he has adjusted quite well. He always wants to be in my lap and sleeps in the bed right next to me at night. I suppose it’s possible that between me being the only person here and it being much better here than the shelter that he has no choice but to like me. Here he is wanting to take a nap on me during a lunch.
I kinda figured that when I moved into my apartment and was living by myself I would feel sad or lonely, but it hasn’t been that way. Granted I haven’t even been here a week yet, but it feels pretty natural, for the time being. To be honest this is really the first time I’ve been out on my own, all by myself. Even in college I was in the dorms. I really am quite surprise how well I’m adapting and how natural it feels. I’ve had little opportunity to entertain yet, so if anybody is ever in Bloomington and wants to come chill with me at my apartment give me a shout.
