Leaping lizzards and holy socks! I'm gettin' outta Seattle!
Yes. I am moving, beau and all, to Kansas City in the fall. That's just for the winter. Come Spring, Zach and I wil make our exodus into Maine- a very secluded location.
What, you may ask, is the meaning of all this? The meaning, I cannot determine. The way it came about, however, I can explain. Zach and I have had a very long talk. He decided that he'll go back to school and become a teacher. I have been asked to accompany him, and gladly accepted. We concluded that , since neither of us particularly love Seattle, we will make Kansas City our home to save money and spend time with our families. Then we'll have a proper "nest egg" for our relocation to Maine.
UNREAL!!! I'm excited beyond words. I'm so ready to see all of my old friends and then to close myself off into a tiny little town with the boy I adore.
My mother is here with me. She and I have dined out and watched movies, so far. Tomorrow we'll make our way to Pike Market and Seattle Center. I'll show her Speakeasy, The Crocodile, and take her to meet Danielle in Queen Anne. Oh. What will I do with her til Tuesday???
I only hope she enjoys herself. I am still in my hermitude, and feeling a wee violated by so many visitors. But I'm taking it all in stride. I think I managed w/ Ingrid. I certainly didn't want her to feel like she was unwanted. I do so cherish her. I hope my mother doesn't feel unwelcome, as well. It's difficult to be the "entertainer" with no money.
