so my plans got a little derailed but it seems to be working out so much better than i could have hoped. friday my mom got an offer from her friend up in washington to have us stay in some extra rooms in his 6 bedroom house. saturday night she told me and basically asked when we were leaving. she said she wouldn't go unless i agreed to go with her and there is no way i'm going to deprive her of an opportunity to find work someplace where the job market is better. she's been out of work for the past 3 months and has had no luck finding another job. so sunday night we set dates. my last day at work is going to be june 11th then i'm going to have that whole next week to say my goodbyes and tie up any loose ends and try to have a good ol' southern california bonfire the friday before i leave. then we pack up sunday the 22nd and leave monday the 23rd. it's all happened so fast but it feels so right. everything seems to be falling into place.
the one person i've been stoked to see that i know up there i just found out lives in the same town i'll be living in (bothell) and we will be only a mile apart. go figure out of all the places my mom's friend could possibly live, he lives next to the one person i know up there. plus she works for comcast in their call center and she said she makes good money plus benefits and she get s free cable will all channels and free high speed internet. she's willing to help me get hired which is awesome because i would love to work in a call center again. if i have to work behind a register ever again i might hurt someone. but if comcast doesn't work she said she has a friend that is the manager for at&t so she can help me out there too.
another perk to the move is i will only be a couple hour drive away from the canadian boarder so that means i will get to see cole sooner than planned. plus i'll be able to go a few times over summer instead of just the one time. that is if he wants me too. i'm still a little worried that it was a coachella fling and he won't like me away from the festival. i'm sure it's just me being my usual paranoid self but things like this have never really ended in my favor before. but he said he can't wait to see me and he seemed excited that the drive to the boarder is about an hour. so maybe this will be included in the good luck i'm having?
amanda wants to road trip with me to washington. i really hope she does. it would make the journey so much more enjoyable. she says she hasn't seen much of the country, and even though we won't be able to make stops along the way, i'm happy that i get to show her more of it. i wish we could stop in san francisco for the day but we will have the cats with us so that's not possible. when we actually get to bothell i want to show her seattle and maybe go up in the space needle. plus i really want to make a trip out to kurt cobain's grave. it will just be nice to have her along for the rid. i'm going to miss her so much. it's not fair that our time together is getting cut so short. but i have to do this.
i think the thing i'm most excited for is getting to sleep in MY BED and a room i can call my own and have privacy again. i've only gotten to sleep in a bed alone 4 times since i moved to my grandma's and i haven't slept in my bed since i lived at mandy's. i can't wait t have it back. i'm also looking forward to getting to decorate a room the way i want to especially now that i have an idea. this is going to be so awesome. it's funny how a month and 11 days seems so far away and at the same time not enough time. i'm going to miss it here but i'm so ready for a new chapter of my life.
