Sleep now and dream of who you'll be

Never go on a trip and think, "Oh, I'll keep up with online things, no problem at all!" because boy, will you fail. Or I will fail, anyway. Which is what happened. I've spent the past week trying to just re-adjust and let me tell you: it's not easy.
Anyway, so, the trip. This is totally long and I am absolutely unapologetic about it; I'm not going to cut.
On Los Angeles, the city itself: I really enjoyed what of it I got to see; it seems like a good combination between Atlanta and Boston. I do want to try a trip where I spend more time in the city (rather than at home watching anime and having sex) but that will have to wait until later this year or next year because I'm not going to be moving until March 2012 at the earliest. This is very saddening, but it's the best decision for my mental health to take things slow.
On my girlfriend: Both her and I were super nervous about meeting IRL. I think we knew we had no cause for the nerves, but they were there nonetheless and I think when I got off the plane I was practically buzzing I was so keyed up. And then I saw her and ffff. I don't even know, my first thought was: she's so lanky. Second thought: nipples. (Yep.)
Anyway, things went just fine in that regard. We have great chemistry, we get along great IRL too, she's a good kisser, and even if I can't manually get her off myself I know how to help her to get herself off which is nearly as good.
It's been a while since I've had a real girlfriend, and despite having sex with a female friend here in Georgia I was nervous about performance, but I don't think I had any cause for that in the end. I've always thought that if you approach something with enough enthusiasm, you can escape from being horrible at it, and if you and your partner communicate-- well, even better. And I had both things going for me, so yeah-- the sex was great.
I also got to, for the first time, do cosplay sex! We cosplayed Art and Havok from Quantum Fighters (my failed NaNo project) and oh my goodness it was awesome. We have to try this again, because I really enjoyed it; I wish we hadn't waited until my last day to do it, but whatever I've learned the lesson for next time.
I've got to say that I really enjoy kissing her. Like, I could probably kiss her for hours and not get tired of it, because I just... nngh, she's a good kisser, I loved the hell out of it.
On RAG Party (aka my birthday): SO MUCH FUN WAS HAD. Penis identification, panties, prompt game, drinking, reading snippets-- oh man, it was just... it was so awesome. I think next time Tens just needs to pace herself a little better and not get blackout-drunk before it's even midnight! I wish that I had gotten to see more of the party, but I was mostly interested in making sure that Tens was okay and after that I was interested in making sure I got to make out with
eeveil.
I got to have tea at themaid cafe Royal/T with Saji, too, and that was actually very enjoyable! Saji is a cool person, and I look forward to getting to know her better when I move to LA.
On Oregon/Visiting my dad: I had thought this lately when talking with him on the phone, but in person it was really obvious-- my dad has found his place. He's happy where he is; he's happy to just be there. He's finally acting more like an adult than a child, which is probably a fucking huge step for him.
I visited Crater Lake and the Southern Oregon coastline and Ashland while I was with him, and it was fun, but it all confirmed the fact that I really had no interest at all in actually living there. It's the very definition of bumfuck nowhere, and... yeah.
And now I'm back home and doing my best to deal with adjusting to life not-on-vacation. It's going kind of slowly, but I think I'll lick it in the end.
