Lonliness is a road that must be traversed... alone?

Ok so this is the second post, and nothing interesting has come up yet. Deepest apologies. Tonight has the flavour of new posts stemming from the deep ruminations of the past couple days, tinged with a hint of Mountain Dew.

Truth be told, it's extremely disconcerting when someone exits your life, and you suddenly find a vacancy where they once stood. Today death is not the culprit, as often alluded to.

I woke up this morning alone, again, as my roommate slept at a friend's house. The day proceeded normally as I showered and left to pursue my various tasks, and returned at lunchtime. When my boyfriend got off work, we relaxed on his sofa, until I returned here, to my room, around 11pm.

My roommate moved out.

All of her belonging are gone, as are the decorations on our door.

The space is empty, and I am alone. And it's definately weird, for lack of a better word. To live with somebody for a month, and suddenly find them moved out of your life in a span of a few hours... how much do we actually take for grantid?

And now that the inital shock has passed, I may return to my thoughts of a higher existance and the interconnectedness of all things.

Next week I'll begin the search for a new roommate.
