So we have a new member of our household. His name is Dave. for simplicity, my David will remain David. It's not very remarkable having another person in the house. he doesn't cramp my style in any way, and is pretty quiet. I'm still not finished doing work in the basement, like the bathroom isn't even started yet, but he has a place to live and doesn't seem to mind that the hallway outside his apartment is still unfinished. there are some positives with him moving in: he talks, (anyone who knows David, knows that i don't get much in the way of conversation,) and he knows many instruments, and is willing to teach me how to play guitar. this is pretty cool. I've signed up to play volleyball on Thursdays as well so hopefully i'll be busier and happier through the coming winter than i was during the past one, which was horrible. my classes are going well, and i'm looking fwd to seeing some friends at Blake's wedding this upcoming weekend.
