surprisingly not on parents or a maid. it’s the internet. so far, living without mommy and daddy around has been okay. they call/skype often enough that it feels just like i’m back in school slogging 16 hour days. and not having a maid around has taught me to be less disgusted by my own filth.

Fantastic Fourth Day of Work! (NOT) Today was, in one word, dull. ‘Twas back to the daily grind (ZOMG.
