Who doesn't like bubblewrap? I do! Even though it scared the pajamas off of me when I first moved in to my apartment and stepped on some while unpacking and immediately went into a crouched position thinking it was gunshots - it's Michigan folks, they're notorious for crime aren't they?? (Wipe that smirk off your face).
True, I'm on the 7th floor, and there's no other building across from me, so it would be near impossible for anyone to shoot into the apartment from outside (but it could happen...you never know), but being alone for the first time and it being 1am threw my nerves into the orange zone. And I didn't over-react did I? I'm sure any of you would have done the same. I'm just the only one to admit it.
Back to my original reason for posting. VIRTUAL BUBBLEWRAP!!!!!!! The coolest thing since...well, actual bubblewrap. I know it's not as good as the reall stuff, but until my fear of plastic-air-filled-bubbles doesn't die down, this will have to do.
P.S. Try manic mode. And make sure to turn the volume up high, otherwise it doesn't work...

Hope you're doing well sweetcakes!
I love reading about your alone for the first time experiences. I could totally see myself having that same freak out.
