5 Days Away...

Jonathan 'j Ro' Rosales has arrived as our final roommate here in the apartment in Glendale. We have to come up with a suitable moniker for our place of residence stat. My brother unscrupulously took 'Fuck Mountain' a couple years ago, referencing this Achewood strip. This will have to be something that appeals to the entire household, all people in the entertainment industry. 2 Screenwriters, a Production Designer, an actor, a dancer and a DP. Together, we form... *insert moniker here*! So we have a full house and it's good to be complete. As soon as my girlfriend starts talking to me again, all will be well. :P

That being said, I am FUCKING pumped to be heading home for work and catching up with all my people for 3 weeks. It is going to go by way too fast as I have been here 3 months and it feels like a couple weeks, but I will make the best of it. Some doc work the first week followed by plenty of Little Caesar's, B-Dub's, Old Style @ the Corner, gaming and a lot of 'being at home.' Hopefully I can get some work in at the White Eagle to scrape up cash for this month's bills and such. I am not worried (despite the fact I probably should be) because I am coming home... In 5 days I will see my parents and best friends, my bed and my ailing cat who I have known for 14 years. The basement where I spent both my childhood playing NES with my brother and the summer of '04 avoiding construction and depression. Having a dishwasher that actually washes dishes instead of just being a huge drying rack. The neighborhood I grew up in will be in the infancy of it's most glorious season and I will be there to enjoy it's beautiful descent into hibernation. I am hopelessly attached to home because I am one of the lucky few that have one to be hopelessly attached to. Home is the imaginary friend I go to when I am in need of one. I may be sitting on an old, uncomfortable couch in my Glendale apartment, but all I feel right now is that I'm currently going for a quiet walk around the circle on a perfect late summer day.

The Cubs. I am going to watch some Cubs games for the first time since June. Seriously. Big deal.
