It took two months. But I'm finally homesick. I want to be back where beer is 15 dollars a case and you can get a decent burger for under 20 dollars, and people are fat and lazy and I can drive wherever I want whenever I want and I can lift weights and play footie and tennis and just generally do something besides sit on my ass.

Sit on my ass on my morning bus ride. Sit on my ass for 4 hours in class. Listen to how the world is fucked. Sit on my ass in the library for another 2-3 hours using the internet. Sit on my ass on the bus ride home. Go home and sit on my ass for another few hours to write my paper. Go to bed with a sore tailbone.

It's also rained for about 5 days straight. You have to wear flip-flops, not because its warm, but because you're shoes with soak within 45 seconds when you step outside. There are puddles that are a foot deep on the city streets.

And I think I have a sinus infection. I can't tell. I've never had one before. But I got sick in November and I haven't really ever cleared up fullly since then. I've gone fore a couple weeks without being sniffly, but it always comes back. And I have tons of sinus pressure that randomly stuffs up a nostril when its least convincing. My back molars are in pain frequently, but I got them checked out before I left and the dentist said that everything looked perfect.

I just want to dry off.
