Back to the East Coast- ironing away!

I'm alone in the hotel room Eric and I are assigned for the 6 months we are in Virginia. I didn't realize how long 8 hours is and now I'm going to be alone, cooped up in this room for 8 hours every day for 6 months. I am bored silly. We got in on the 27th and he started classes on the 28. I had no coffee, no food, no nothing. It is a very small, or at least a very spread out city. There is nothing in walking distance and if there was it is very unsafe to walk around here. I'm not entirely sure on that, it's just a hunch I'd rather not try and prove either way. Eric is looking for a cheap beater car for me to wall around in while he's at work. I set up an appointment for a obgyn check up so I can get back on birth control. I ran out last month and want to get an IUD with no hormones so I need to have my check up get prescribed expensive as hell bc, then get a referral to a doc that will give me an IUD. Its a long process I think but at least its one foot in the right direction making this appointment. And its on Friday! I was so shocked they could get me in so soon. Great! Its about 3 miles away, so i will take a taxi I guess, have my appointment at 11, and cross another thing off of my list of things to do to act like a responsible adult. The next one after this appointment is get bc, get a doc for an IUD and get new contacts! My glasses script is right, but my contact prescript is wrong, I don't know how that is possible,but I will get new contacts and a new script for them, then I can set out to find a job. I just can't work with out contacts. And a car. Cant work with out a ride there every day, or a taxi cab would cost all the money I would be making. Not to mention there isn't much of opportunities out here for me. Eric recommended K mart, but i refuse. Call me stuck up, but I just won't put that as experience on an application in the future. I'm not that desperate to be rid of this boredom. After work yesterday Eric and the two guys we are sharing the company car with finally found a walmart after driving in circles and loops and this way and that way, (tomtom really let us down there). Now at least we have milk and coffee, cereal and brownies. There are no gyms any where around here. And like I said it isn't really safe enough to just throw on the old tennis shoes and run a couple laps around the block. So at this rate I may plumpen up quite a bit while we're here. Not what I had planned, actually I had promised Eric to start getting in shape as soon as we got outhere, with all my free time and what not. Looks like that plan is going to need some ironing out. Anyways, I've been writing a little bit with my free time. I pumped out a difficult one page today on a plot I came up with about 6 months ago. Its going to be a slow one. And it always is a shitty first draft so I won't waste mine oryour time posting that today. That too, needs some ironing. And that is all for right now.
