I got back from Roanoke around 11:30 or so, and there was a post it note on my desk, saying that Alan had called around 5:30. There was a brief message, saying that Alan got an apartment at Hunter's Ridge! 
A week from tomorrow (or today?) he'll be moving in there.. Goodness... It's so soon. So odd. I don't really feel anything about it yet. Next Friday night it's quite possible I'll be on the edge of my seat in anticipation, but for right now, I am calm as I lounge here, rereading the note over and over while listening to Alanis Morrisette. He was able to get a 6 month lease, that ends in August 2002, which is really, really good. Michelle had been talking about getting an apartment together with Alan and I and maybe one or two other people. As of right now, I would prefer that situation than what it will be at Hunter's Ridge, since at least the apartment would be full of people I know. Not strange college guys that I don't really want Alan exposed to, anyway. I don't trust them very much... But in Hunter's Ridge, Alan has some control over who moves into the little apartment thing with him, as long as there are other rooms available. So it might not be so bad. Hopefully.
Never know, he might hate Hunter's Ridge, even though they are supposed to be very nice places. I could hate them, too, though. A whole list of things could be wrong with the situation by the time August comes around... But, if he decides he loves it there, he can sign a year long lease in August.. At least then he'll be in sink with the school year, since if I do decide to transfer to Tech in a couple of years, he'll be able to move with me when I go to Blacksburg... Otherwise, I would have had to find somewhere else to live from August until February, until Alan's old lease went out and could move down there with me. Tech doesn't accept many Spring transfers, either, so my best bet would be to try for the fall. But, anyway. Everything is going good... everything is fitting into place. So odd. The idea of him coming down and to not have to worry about spending our time on something amazing in order to make up for all the time we have been and will be apart. There won't be the usual, "I am sorry you did not have a good trip," speech on the last day of seeing each other for a month or so. It's so very unreal.
This move could not have come at a better time... I am utterly sick of talking over the internet. He's a different person in my head than who he is in real life, and it's about time that I sort the two of them out. See if I can merge the two of them in my perspective. The idea of calling him local, and just falling asleep next to him watching TV. Odd thoughts. I've never really had the full experience of having a boyfriend... I've never had a boyfriend that I was with for more than a month at one time. Physically here, that is. Odd to think, when I think of how long I've been with Alan and how long we have been "dating."
Me and Michelle saw two movies. Orange County and The Royal Tenenbaums. A movie day. Neither of us had ever seen two movies in a row, so we decided we would try for it.. She got first pick, I got second. Orange County was hers, and I think it played from 5 until 6:30... Surprisingly short. We went to the mall after that, and looked around through the regular girly stores. 7:30 was my choice, for The Royal Tenenbaums. VERY GOOD MOVIE. I like all of these new movies, like that one, and Vanilla Sky... So original ways of telling a story. Good camera angles, and choices of color... Beautiful. I never paid such attention to those qualities in movies as I do now... They attract me like a moth.
Afterwords, we had dinner at IHOP, which Michelle paid for. It was alright, since I am a cheap date, with my $3.99 buttermilk pancakes and $3 worth of side dishes (biscuits and eggs, of course.) We had a waiter named Gary... Who seemed to be interested in everything but taking our order. It seemed to me like he was new, or was constantly checking out the hotties in the restaurant. He shook both of our hands when he introduced himself as our waiter... And everytime he came to ask us if we needed anything, he would touch Michelle on the shoulder. Hmm. Very odd guy. He got a $3. tip.
I need to get some sleep... Need to read some, if I can make myself. I am already a good 4 chapters of reading behind in my Anthropology class, and I'm getting behind in World History. Bummer. Being a slacker is not as good as it used to be.

Me and Michelle are about to head over to Roanoke. We're going to try to catch two movies in a row. A Walk to Remember (becasue it has Mandy Moore) and I Am Sam. I'm not sure if that one is out yet, but it sounds like it would be good. Yeah. I really do want to get off campus... And I want to take more pictures with my camera 
See if I can get them any better in the day light, since my last pictures of Roanoke did not turn out well at all.

Saw Ocean's 11 Yesterday. From when the theater a couple blocks from here lets Radford Students get in free, and they just have to show their ID's. The movie was alright.
I don't really want to write anything. But then I do. Internal conflict. Eep. I'm going to go harass Michelle...

Ahhhh... I'm hurting! 
I've never had cramps like this since I was a sophomore in high school... When my father had to pick me up from school and would yell at me in public about how we needed to get me some better pads or something so he wouldn't have to always come and pick me up. Ugh. Bad memories. Bad pain. And I've got to talk all the way to cook, and sit through a very hectic world history class... A class I like, but it almost more trouble than it's worth to keep track with the teacher.
At least then I'll have the rest of the day to do work. And seriously, do work. I was supposed to do it yesterday, but I just hung out all day. Ehh. Gotta get my shit together.
