Excitement

21Jan12

I’m excited!

I’ve wanted to move for a looooonnng time.

Except for three pieces of furniture, 85 percent of my belongings are boxed up in the living room. (When did Elliott Smith CDs, love letters and exercise accessories get so bulky?)

For a couple of weeks now, I’ve been trying to remind myself that moving won’t fix everything. It won’t make my life perfect. I’ll still have my holiday-treats spare tire, my student loan bills, my super annoying cat.

But it’s a step. A brave effort to make every day a little better.

I’ll have to find a new gym, yet another library, my way around a new town, a new commute.

I’m sure there will be creepy neighbors, unforeseen traffic concerns, blah blah blah.

I’m doing this for myself. I hope it pays off.

If nothing else, it’s the next landing pad, the next stage of Single 20-Something Adventure America Fun Time Now.

I get the keys and sign the lease tomorrow, plan to start living there next weekend.

Ladies, bust out the cheap wine and Destiny’s Child.
