homeless

the last few days have been quite the experience. i moved out of my campus apartment on monday and have been couch hopping for the last two nights. i put most of my stuff in storage and have only what i need, some clothes, two books, and some bathroom stuff, in the back of my car. all of my housing stuff for the fall, all of my options, have fallen through, leaving me homeless the last few nights, and also when i return in the fall unless i work something out asap. nothing seems to be working in my favor though. one night i was able to stay in my friend shannas guest bedroom. that was nice, they served me dinner and were very hospitable. in return i clean more than i left, leave a nice note, and maybe even some flowers, then disappearing before they arrive home from work. it happened today again when i stayed on my friend nicoles futon. they were very nice and even let me go out and use the apartment complex pool. it was very refreshing. the next morning i cleaned and left before they came home. during the day well yesterday i went to school and used the computers in the student union so that i could play spider solitaire. and today i am at the press because they have free wireless which i have not had access to because in the homes i stayed at they didnt have it. so now im just relaxing eating my blueberry bagel and drinking my large iced soy yerba mate and writing about my boring life of couch surfing. one thing im really interested in trying out, just for one night, is the Boulder International Hostel (http://www.boulderhostel.com) ive never stayed in a hostel but after reading about it, it sounds great and a fun community for a night or two. the only thing is that you must be an out of colorado resident which works perfect for me. maybe someday when i have someone who will go with me i will stay there for a night and make up an amazing story of my travels. but as for now im in the coffee shop for the next few hours until aaron will take me to the airport to fly home where i will be homeless no longer!!!!!!!!!!!!
