Official Announcement - "I'm Sorry"

Today is probably the best day here so far. Not a cloud in the sky, and it's in the upper 60s. Good enough for me. Today starts the weekend for me so nothing much on my schedule. Today is going to be a laundry day which I'm DREADING. Mom I need help. KIDDING! But only one dryer works, and my clothes never seem to dry so it's a long, painstaking process. Today I'm probably going to go to the gym and then a bunch of the boys are going to get their haircuts at some place up the road. Hopefully it isn't too expensive. I've got some essays to do too before I leave tomorrow.
I talked to my Aunt Ann last night for the first time, she was great. Warned me of every dangerous creature to ever exist in Australia. Thanks Aunt Ann!
I also tried to teach my grandma how to use skype. Interesting to say the least. I could see them and hear them, but they could only see me, not hear me. So I tried writing things on paper and putting them up to the camera. Never quite worked out though.

I just wanted to officially announce that I've ended my relationship with the meatball sub from Subway. It was tough, neither of us wanted to see the other go, but by spending so much time together, we found out who we really were. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't all her. But towards the end she put in a few lackluster performances (ex. she started to wear less and less cheese, and I just can't do that to myself). I felt I was putting in more effort for this relationship than I was getting out, so I had to call it off. But I'm going to be real with you - there were some other factors involved, and I blame myself completely. I said to her, "I love you, I really do. We've spent some of the best and worst days of our lives together. Like that one morning when I felt really sick, you were there for me. And that other time when I had you, a large bowl of french fries and a full bottle of ketchup, that was one of the happiest days of my life. But I can't do this any longer. I can't even look in the mirror at the person I've become. I've cheated on you with Chicken, Bacon, BBQ." We haven't talked since.
