on a more serious note

I must say, today is a loaded today.
You see, today is Linda's 24th birthday.
And today is the last day of having Linda Lee as my roommate.

The triniti is finally breaking up. Last night we drew names out of a hat to determine who gets what art pieces off our living room walls. We've been socialists for so long, its hard to divvy up the goods after 3 years. Maybe if Solomon were here, he'd threaten to saw our coffee table in half so that Linda and I could each have half of it. That's what I think he'd do.

when you live together for 3 years and share EVERYTHING (you people know our clothes sharing craziness. if you ever compliment one of us on an outfit, you can guarantee we will say "Thanks, it's Becca's" or Thanks, its Linda's". I rarely wear all of my own clothes) it feels like a divorce when you split up. Not in the emotional sense, just in the sense of personal belongings. Like who gets the fridge that we all pitched in on? or the infamous vintage table?

To tell you the truth, I do like change. I like moving, I like getting rid of things. I look forward to where I will be living come January. But just for today, I feel wistful. To sound perfectly dramatic, I am closing a chapter of my life (did I just say that? yeah, I did. and its true).

So, here's the the triniti. Its been a good stint.
I bet you'll miss my amazing toaster.
