On a Whim
So I moved! It was worth it. I may not be here long, but this was one of those whim things that I did and boy I am glad I did.
I was in Utah a couple of weeks ago and when I landed back in San Francisco, it just felt like I had come back home. Home is an almost alien concept to me. I grew up pretty much like a nomad. Through the years of 0-18, I never lived in a place for more than 3 years. College was probably the only place I was at for 4 years. People ask me all the time "was it weird moving every 2-3 years?" I tell them, "Thats all I know, it would be weird staying at the same place for more than 3 years!"
Now that I know that I am leaving San Francisco/Bay Area, I feel sad. I feel like I found a place that was as close to home as I would get (or maybe I am just getting older and sentimental!). Every time I drive down 101, I look at the bay and think about how I wont be seeing it on a regular basis. I look out of the window and see the ocean and think the same thing. I look at friends and think about how it will be different. I am no stranger to moving, but this one seems the hardest one yet.
Ugh I am rambling...
Here is the view from my window...
