Oh yeah! My blog-thingy.

Hello loveys! I had/am having an excellent time reading all your vengeful comments. Good to know that I’m not the only revenge-obsessed bitch out there. In the end, I chose not to burn her house down, or to (thanks Cate) take a crap on the kitchen floor on my way out.

I always agreed that living well is the best revenge, so I followed up with my plan. While she was gone over the weekend, I got my shit together, put most of it in a storage space so that my old room wouldn’t be too cluttered, cleaned my room and bathroom, and split. She returned home to my key and a note:

“Dear Roommate,

Here’s your key. Thanks for everything.

–Me”

Short and sweet, with the added benefit of being able to be interpreted literally or supremely sarcastically. I like that. Three guesses as to which way I actually meant it?

Soooo, I moved back to the little house I shared with two dating roommates, over in East Ghetto, Savannah. Except that they’re no longer dating – to the point where the boy is actually dating other girls already. Guess I wasn’t the only one who had a tumultuous month.

Also…news! The night ex-roommate gave me the news that I would be vacating the premesis, I went out to dinner with my friend Mary. Dinner turned into a bitch session turned into drinks at my favorite bar. Where I ran into a guy I’ve run into a few times around town over the last few months. He’s always been friendly but awkward and nervous - I could tell he liked me. Of course I’ve always been more attracted to his roommate/constant wingman. Of course I am - the roommate is a handsome-jerk-type-guy. JUST what I go for.

But anyway, that night I was pretty maudlin (read: drunk), and I guess I gave off enough friendly signals to give the Awkward Nice Guy enough guts to ask for my number. He did, and he called the next day, and we saw a movie in the park during their outdoor film festival, and we’ve been seeing each other since.

Which is almost two weeks now, and it’s going fantastically. He’s very sweet and considerate and dorky and cute. And we both like each other, which so rarely happens to me. So I have a nice thing going on right now.

Also, I found a great one-bedroom apartment, not much more than what I’m paying here, and in a much better part of town. So there will be one final move at the end of May, but I’m about to sign a year-long lease, so it’ll be the last one for a while.

Finally, things are not sucking.
