today was certainly nice. i finally talked to sanjeev today, and he's indeed going to give me his twin size matress and boxspring. i'll have a real bed on tuesday! woohoo! the floor's starting to be uncomfortable. so that's nice.

this afternoon ryan (one of my new roommates) and i went to the hardware store and i bought an oil filter and some oil. we changed my oil right there in the parking lot, and ryan gave me lessons the whole time. now i can (hopefully) do it on my own from now on! $4 is a lot cheaper than $20 for an oil change...

once we got back, we played a game of pool (i have a pool table in my house -- ha, ha!) and ryan talked to heidi (the landlord's daughter) about riding the horses. about an hour later, we head on down there, and i get to ride a horse :) it was so great!! there's nothing like riding on a beautiful horse through tall grass and watching the sun set. i could literally feel my tension and stress and anxiety and all that shit just melt away. this is definitely going to become a habit :)

after that we came home, and kirk had made some kick ass chili. so we all ate some of that and watched tv for a little while. i can't believe how much i enjoy living here. i'm just so glad i had the balls to move out of that other place, yeck.
