greetings, from a former cave dweller

what a great day! After an entire year of fuming with jealousy over this incredible blog, I am officially a contributor. You are probably racking your brain wondering why I have not joined sooner. Well, you see, I didn't live in the house last year. Therefore, my skills were not desired. But no need to dwell in the past..my dream has been fulfilled, and now I get to share my random thoughts with blogger world.

Last year I lived in an apartment or a cave (depends on who you talk to). It was a spacious home with a den, kitchen, private bathroom, private bedroom, and a bed that allowed me to roll over. Obviously, times have changed. Goodbye personal space, hello shoebox! Before you sink into a depression out of pity, let me share with you a few reasons why this shoebox definitely trumps my once beloved cave..

Only in the house can you...

• Find squirrels in your bed and respond with laughter instead of horror
• Experience someone who compulsively fluffs her pillow
• Return home at night to discover half of the Publix bakery in your living room
• Stare out your bedroom window for hours
• Watch Lifetime movies in a dark place that reminds me of the cave..the Vortex
• Hear people singing or yelling at all hours
• Find at least one person to accompany you to the rec
• Gaze at a large poster of boys in red track suits
• Get banned from adjusting the thermostat
• Send out a search party for a friend who likes to drunk creep into rando beds
• Consider it a victory when you make it to your bunk without demolishing a fan
• Live within twenty feet of all your best friends..cheesy but true!
