I am amazingly free this summer.

I've got my own place, I've got my own car. I can drive it anywhere I want whenever I want. Absolutely nobody gives a crap when I get home. I can tell someone I’m going home, and if it takes ten minutes or three hours to get there, no big deal. Nobody expects me for lunch, nobody expects me for dinner, nobody tells me what I should eat or what I should buy or where I can and cannot go or when I have to get back. I have enough money to pay the rent and buy the groceries. Beyond those two my needs are few. Yes, I'm expected at work, but nobody really cares when exactly I come in or how I partition my day- all I have to do is get my work done. And even though nobody expects me to be anywhere, if I do show up then they are glad to have me. The other day I spent a ridiculous amount on fresh grapes. But nobody told me that it was too much and that I should spend my money more wisely. I bought some cookie dough, but nobody told me that I shouldn't because it's not healthy. I can decide whether I move or whether I stay put, whether I rent a moving truck or take it in my car, if I clean the bathroom or if I just let it stay dirty, anything. I can decide to take a trip to Utah. I can drink milk right out of the container. I can eat dinner at 10 o’clock. Or 3 o’clock. Or not at all. I can decide to drive to New York City at 4:30pm on a weekday. Or not. I can do anything I want! BWAHAHAHAHA!!

Lucky you..

So you feel trapped?

that's what I love about living on my own. Except for the car part, I can pretty much do what you do. . . obviously not having a car prohibits me from suddenly driving to Utah :P

I love that about being over twenty.

Although I don't get to enjoy it much. My brother gets all jealous and makes a big deal out of it. So, it's not all that much fun.

im so jealous.
ive never had that kind of freedom. oh the joys of being in highschool...



anyway, the song isnt either of those. if you look up bruce hornsby on myspace music, candy mountain run is one of those songs. of course, i dont know where you stand on myspace, but if you dont break out in hives when you use it, i would recommend listening to the song. :]
