Here is another first: housewarming party.

People brought me gifts that I didn't expect.

Groups formed around me that I didn't even have to wish for.

A hand caressed my waist that I didn't think I deserved.

It was all warm and easygoing and quite right enough; I'd call it homey if I didn't have an unromantic aversion to the word. But maybe that is the perfect word; a new home, a new couch, a new feeling - exciting and uncomfortable in all the good getting used to places.
