If summer has to end, then I wanted to be sure to go out with a bang. One of my favorite things about moving is not only the exploring of the infinite abyss but also, the seemingly endless amount of visitors. The past two weeks have definitely had me exploring the PNW, West Coast and…
Seattle. Traffic. Is. The. Worst. One hour, I repeat, one hour, to make it down 3 blocks in the city last Friday afternoon. What. The. Hell. It was a rough day and we were ready for this much needed weekend away from the city. However, with traffic like this- it wasn’t looking like that was…
Thursday. Oh, what a happy day Thursday was. My favorite of all the days. This particular Thursday was extra special and seemingly perfect. The weather was again, oh so perfect, too perfect. C and I headed down to the waterfront for some casual midday dog walking. I had the pleasure of slowly wandering along with an…
What a crazy, busy, beautiful week it has been! My first week in Seattle is almost complete and I couldn’t be happier. I meant to be better about posting more, but life it seems has gotten in the way. Not quite into the ‘settling’ in routine, too much life to accomplish before I do that!…
After a night spent in the WalMart parking lot, I was definitely ready to get on with the journey. It was 5am and just the beginning lights of dawn could be seen in the distance. My neck was cramped, my legs sore and my eyes just couldn’t seem to moisten but I wanted nothing more…
Thursday night before my departure I didn’t sleep very well. I tossed and turned all night long wondering if I was making the right decision. As part of my personality, I’m constantly worrying about taking the ‘right’ path and making the decisions that will make me the happiest in the long run. My students kept…
How many chapters are in a lifetime? The phrase always makes me laugh yet, in a few short weeks; I’ll be once again turning over a page in this life and beginning a new chapter. I am so very extremely excited yet sad; bittersweet is the perfect word to describe it. In Minneapolis I have…
Why is everyone always hatin’ on twenty-three? I for one thought it was a fabulous year. Old enough to be considered an “adult” yet still in the early twenties category so you can get away with things. Literally caught somewhere in the middle of your early twenties, twenty three is freakin’ awesome. I can’t even…
I spent this past weekend in Saratoga Springs, New York for a little Dave Matthews Band weekend. I’ve only been to New York one other time and the East Coast only a handful so I’m not the most familiar with the area. Ignorantly in my mind, everything on the East Coast is within like, 3…
Late last night as I was clearing off unnecessary photos from Facebook (why did we ever think it was cool to post EVERY drunk photo online for the world to see?) I started to reflect on love and friends and how they make up the person we are. Okay, honestly, I was mostly concentrating on…
