Excessive

I said that I wanted to write... yesterday... and due to a spur of the moment change of plans, I didn't, but tonight I have no excuse and no reason not too.

Things have been busy lately, as I'm sure you can tell, but things are good at the same time. There are aspects about living in this place, this three floored townhouse, that I didn't even consider, that I didn't even think about that just continue to impress me, and make me feel so comfortable and safe and relaxed. Random things pop in my head when I consider writing about it... the quiet... the complete quiet. The storage space, the cats having room to be apart and be comfortable. The new coffee maker, the curtains, the laundry, the new bed, the bigger bathroom, the second bathroom, the shelves and organization that we have. So many things to enjoy, and while things have been busy so it's been difficult to relax, I know that if given the chance, I could feel very comfortable, very at rest here, and I'm excited for the chance.

That's not to say that I haven't had any chances to sit down and relax, between puppy play, around the house home improvements (shelves, curtains, and even continuing to unpack and organize) and then the day to day stuff (cooking, cleaning, going to work, going shopping), there isn't much time to do much of anything. I think in the last two days I've sat down and played a game three times, one of those days was one of the three days off I had to take care of the puppy (the first three days of having her) and another was tonight (and only for about thirty minutes). I played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 single player and a minute or two of Disgaea 4 (before shutting it off without saving) and the other day I played some God of War, and all in all it's been very nice to sit and play, as it's felt like it's been forever. I can't wait for some time in the future where I can spend a whole afternoon playing some games, or just a day of complete relaxation... not sure when that will be, but right now I can keep it in my mind as something to look forward to.

Things have been going well with Ashe, and she's learning quickly, and only goes pee and poo outside now (only took two days), she's starting to walk on a leash, and she barely whines at night in her crate (seems to be only when she needs to go outside). I'm a little worried about her food situation, as we've recently switched to a high quality food, as well as canned food once daily, and now her poo is super runny, and that worries me, but I know that her body needs time to get used to all the new stuff, so I can't let it make me do anything too quickly, I just have to see it through for a while and hope it works out.

All in all I've been pretty happy with the situation of things lately, and while things are busy, I have faith that things will calm down soon and we will both get a chance to really enjoy all the new place has to offer. I can't wait to play some games without having a list of things I need to do hanging over my head, and maybe watch a movie with my girlfriend without knowing that I should be hanging a shelf or shopping for curtains.
