my god, I'm so fucking happy in life lately!!
so, first things, I GOT A JOB TEACHING!  it is up north from where i lived and grew up, so i also moved, and i now live alone in the big city of my state.  it is exciting, a little scary, but so far so good!
my school that I'm working at is also just the best! i can have tattoos, dyed hair, and wear jeans every day.  my principal also had a pride flag during june that he displayed at his house and told us about during the first staff meeting of the year.  like...i might be able to tell people about my gf without getting fired?? wild! 
about my gf, we've been together for almost a year and a half now, and it is just so good.  we are planning to move in together when she graduates this December.  it hasn't really hit me that I'm in such a healthy relationship.  like even now i just can't believe someone like her is with me, I'm such a mess in comparison.  i also told her about the guy and what he did to me....like...more detail than anyone else.  and she was so good about it, and still is.  like, every touch is asked for and she just makes me so comfy. 
a little sad note, but good still.  my sister is officially at basic training for the army.  she seems to kinda like it, but defs misses home.  i miss her lots, but i know I'll get to see her in a few months! 
happier note, I'm 1 year and 11 months clean from self harm, only one more month till I've made it 2 years!  i was gonna wait till then to update, but getting a job and moving seemed like big news to write about, and i didn't want to forget.  until the next random happy news update!
