"Because I've lived in one room my entire life, working at the same table that you use to pay bills at and eat at. It's going to be nice to have actual space"

Augusten Burroughs is expressing his excitement at the prospect of having more space in his life. He has been confined to a single space for his whole life, and has needed to use the very same table for both mundane tasks such as paying costs and for consuming. This quote conveys the sense of freedom that he feels at the thought of having more space to move around in and to do different activities. It also speaks to the importance of having a sense of freedom and autonomy in one's life, and how it can be removed when one is confined to a single room. The quote also speaks to the significance of having a sense of privacy and individual space, which is something that Burroughs has been denied of for so long.
