Trying to escape the Jersey City void to get to the airport and back home.

So after spending two weeks in Jersey City, the original plan was for me to spend 4 days and then wish Frank good luck at the airport on his departure, but somehow he convinced me to stay 7days, and then an additional weekend, and then I started to drive home, but found his phone in my car and I forgot two overdue library books at his house so turned around and drove back, I was halfway home when I realized all this, and somehow all that turned into 14 days. I don't know how I survived cause alternate day parking is one of my super-hero weaknesses, that and Frankie Sizzle, I drove just Frank to the airport. His mom and grandma and all the luggage was taken in another minivan driven by Frank's uncle, who I accendently called aunt in spanish. [Way to get on the good side, eh?] I'm proud of myself for not crying when we said goodbye, and I most certainly laughed as I watched Frank push a small cart with too many suitcases on it, and dragging a suitcase following two short Cuban ladies into the airport. I'm also proud of my car not over heating. And I'm also proud cause I don't miss him too much, but I think this is all because it hasn't set in that Frank just moved to Belgium and it hasn't set in that there is no offical date for my departure. All I have to comfort me is games from the 1980's which totally kick ass, such as Mrs. Pac-Man, Mappy, and Xevior. I'm tired and probably could fall asleep anywhere anytime after the hour of 5pm. I also started making a new sketchbook then proceeded to burn the edges, God I love book binding. After spending 2 weeks with Frank, and not really having a computer to waste my time on, and nothing to make anything artistic and only watching tv and playing videogames, an artist tends to get ant-sie and want to create. So I think that's why the book was started. I think I'm really tired cause my heads straight but feels slanted, also the keyboard feels like I'm resting my wrist on a half-pipe. I have no idea how I accomplished this. I hate alternate day parking!
