Leaving tomorrow to drive down to the new apartment in Virginia (metro-DC). I'm excited to start my next adventure, but it's never easy to say goodbyes. And it was definitely sad to conclude the previous adventure. I loved being a part of a community, living in a gorgeous place, and never being short of things to do. And it doesn't help that I was/am pretty infatuated with my boss. It would be harder for me not to fall for a brilliant, fascinating man who lives an extremely sustainable lifestyle (he's completely off the grid, his house is powered by solar energy and he doesn't have indoor plumbing) and he spends his life promoting the wellfare of children. I'm not gonna lie, he made it much harder for me to leave. But nothing ever happened between us, aside from a few mildly flirtatious conversations, which is probably all for the best.
The theme of the last few months has unfortunately been me falling fairly hard for guys I can't have. Bah. But I have a good feeling that this next chapter of my life will be a lot better for my love-life. When it comes to picking up men, Johanna and I are an unstoppable duo. And in general, I'll be in a place where I can meet people and I will actually have the time to date them. I already have the phone number of a former model who works in Alexandria, where I'm moving to. I met his mom in the Somerset Collection and she gave me his number. And called him up while I was standing there and had me say hello. It was quite amusing.
Better get to bed. Lot's of driving to do tomorrow. I've never been so scared and so excited in my life.
