I haven’t had the chance to see it, but the people I work with have. Jim said to Ben the other day, “In a few weeks, we’re going to be seeing a new John.” This totally confused me. Apparently, everyone has noticed that as this summer has progressed, I’ve been coming in looking a bit more on the rough side. Slightly, but just barely, if even, offended, everyone has it put together but me. It’s hot and humid these days, and I have no air conditioning, point number one. Two, I sleep on a futon mattress that sits on the floor. Lastly, I simply hate my apartment. If I weren’t doing this whole being grown up, radio, working my ass off thing, it’d be great.
So, I bought a bed today. It’s not officially mine yet, but my money is down. It’s not moving until I do. Which is another process in of itself that’s wearing me thin these days. I’ve started thinning out even more of what little stuff I do own in my tiny apartment. Truly, there is yet some odds and ends I just do not need, never did, and never will. Also looking to toss my hat into selling stuff on eBay again. Other stuff will go to Goodwill. After that, it’s just straight up packing. The plan is coming together. However, when I tested out the bed today, I almost passed out right there. It’s very much a John bed; orthopedic, no-flip, firm mattress with a slight pillow top. Joy…
I’ve also joined the ranks of the three razor blade shaving community, up one from my usual two. Interesting, indeed.
