...of my parents home. Finally. I got an apartment about 15 minutes away (yeah yeah, baby steps) with my boyfriend. We are still living in a maze of boxes, but I really like it there. We got a new kitty a few weeks ago also, his name is Ramses.

So, uh....I feel kinda weird about moving out. I'm an only child so I feel like I've abandoned my parents and dog and cat. Is that normal? Also - YAY for coming home, taking off your clothes, and eating Reese's Pieces on the couch while naked. I will post pics soon. Of the apartment, not naked candy eating.

It's pretty normal to feel wierd when you first move out. You are only 15 minutes away, so it's really not that bad.

When I first moved out, I moved 900 miles away. Then after a few years, 3000 miles away! Never looked back. Heh. No baby steps for me I guess. I've always been a pretty independent person though.

All in all, I think moving out of ones' parents house is a good thing. You become more independent, grow as a person, and you can't beat the freedom, etc, etc.

It's probably a good thing to live fairly close to your parents though. You get all the benefits of being near your parents, being able to see them regularly, etc, but if/when they start to annoy you, you can just leave and go home.
