only a little longer now

Only a little longer now, in a few weeks I will be moving back to california.   You mean that sunny place for like 360 days of the year?  Well, yes.  But you know, they do rain in the winter, and people start screaming cold when the temperature drops below 60.

Why am I leaving? because I found a job.  I didn't just plan to go out there without being paid for.   I copied my resignation letter off of google as soon as I got my offer letter.  I couldn't even hide my glow.   My coworkers are happy for me too.  afterall, it's california, who wouldn't want to go there.  Of course, they couldn't understand why I would leave california in the first place and come here and even live here three years.   Michigan is only a short stop in my life, I think california is more like home, at least I call it home in this country when I can't even tell people where my hometown is.

Here is another crazy thing.   I am going to drive back to california, not by myself of course.  My friend is flying here and we will drive back together.  I couldn't possibly drive all this thousands of miles alone.  In any case it will be quite a roadtrip, just like I always wanted, my car swifting on the open road, stepping on the  gas, forgeting the high gasoline price, just drive.  styx will probably go with me, that is if he wants to go see the golden state.  He does not enjoy car ride however.  poor little thing.  now that he is with me, he will have to suffer quite a bit of traveling.  imagine, a rabbit's life on the road.

Keane - Can't stop now

I noticed tonight that the world has been turning
While I've been stuck here dithering around
Well I know I said I'd wait around till you need me
But I have to go, I hate to let you down
But I can't stop now
I've got troubles of my own
Cause I'm short on time
I'm lonely
And I'm too tired to talk

I noticed tonight that the world has been turning
While I've been stuck here withering away
Well I know I said I wouldn't leave you behind
But I have to go, it breaks my heart to say

That I can't stop now
I've got troubles of my own
Cause I'm short on time
I'm lonely
And I'm too tired to talk

No one back home
I've got troubles of my own
And I can't slow down
For no one in town
And I can't stop now

And I can't slow down
For no one in town
And I can't stop now
For no one

Emotion keeps my heart on me
Emotion keeps my heart on me
Emotion keeps my heart on me
Emotion keeps my heart on me
