I'm home, sitting in my own basement, on my own couch, my own bed and patiently awaiting me.
Getting home was a little interesting, though. It always is.
My roommate was driving me home because she had a job interview this weekend and needed to go home. She was done with class at 11:30 this morning, but I didn't get out until 2. Thankfully, she decided to wait for me.
Right when I got out of class, I sprinted across campus (because, of course, my class was on the opposite end of campus from my dorm) in order to get my stuff packed up so we could leave and, hopefully, beat Friday night traffic.
Things were looking good until about halfway through our drive.
We were about twenty minutes outside of downtown Seattle when traffic came to a complete stop. We then proceeded to creep down the highway for the next forty-five minutes, only going about ten miles the entire time. We finally made it past Seattle at about 4:15 (after leaving school at 2). Things were going smoothly again for the next half hour. Then traffic got sucky again. My roommate didn't drop me off until about 5:30, about an hour later than we thought.
But that's okay. We got home safely. It was a nice day out...though my roommate's car doesn't have the best air conditioning system, and it did get a bit hot in the car when we were sitting on the highway..but that's pretty much the only thing I have to complain about.
I'm happy to be home, even if it is only for two days. I miss my mom. And my dog, who's sitting with me right now. This might be the only time I get to come home this quarter, before the end of the school year. I might try to squeeze in one more visit sometime in May, but I really don't think that's going to happen...Does that mean I'm becoming more okay with not being home? Maybe...
I'm gonna head off to bed soon. Might watch a T.V. for a little while longer (I don't watch any T.V. at school...I need to catch up).
Hope you all have a good weekend.
