"Just this human heart, filled with this human flaw"

On the iPod "Red Elephant" - Sunny Day Real Estate

It's strange how life starts to shift on you. I've finally started to get some fulfillment on the work front and everything else starts slipping. I'm tired. I know that I always say that I'm tired, but in all honesty, I'm really, really tired. I can't sleep and just can't seem to find a routine that works that will get me out to Warren from Westland in one piece. I feel sleepy on the drive to work. I love my job, but I miss being in the city. I like the bustle. I like seeing the black men with storied wrinkles, their weathered shopping baskets and smelling the market.

The finance is back in Kirksville for another month and it's just me and the dog. I went to bed cold, only to not be able to stand the cold. The dog and I slept together the rest of the night.

I'm adjusting to a lot of things. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, but so far, it has been very, very interesting. Now, if only I could fill this human heart with a little less of the human flaws.
