It’s late. I’m tired and I want to go to bed.

I hung out with M and A all night. We are definitely no longer party animals. Tonight we went to a mediocre sushi place for dinner and afterwards stopped by the grocery store (for candy, or course!). Once we got home we sat around for a while and then went up to the attic to steam clean the carpeting which I promised M I would do before leaving. It was a super fun night. Getting old is awesome!

M(e) isn’t home yet. She’s supposed to be giving me a ride to the airport in a few hours. I wish I’d gone to bed earlier, but the time got away from me and I put off packing until it was late. I offered to go pick her up from the train station, but then she texted something about missing her train and that she’d take another and we should wait to hear from her. We still haven’t heard from her. I’d like to pick her up and help out since she offered to drive me to the airport tomorrow, but I also really want to go to bed.

I met a guy I’ve known for a while in Newark today. I went to his house and we made out for a while and then we got something dinner. I enjoyed making out. I didn’t want it to go any further than that today because I’ve known him a couple years and, although we’re not good friends, I’d like to wait to fool around until I’m more comfortable with my body and being around him. He’s super sweet. I’m not sure if there’s really much potential for that to go anywhere, but I’m willing to explore things and find out.

Ok, time to wake up M(a) and tell her I’m going to bed. I’m excited to go to Minnesota tomorrow, but also sad to be leaving NJ.

M(e) just texted. I’m going to pick her up.
