Leaving south Everett
It’s hard not to get sentimental about leaving.
I’ve lived in this house longer than any place since high school, and even then, not by much. I was a tween the last time I lived anywhere more than a year or two.
We had good times, regardless.
It’s sort of staggering how many of those good times I had by myself. I watched The Wire, all of Desperate Housewives, 30 Rock.
Guests, friends, adventures.
I’ll miss the easy drive to south county and Seattle, the weird, random fun of moving in with strangers.
It’s another step away from college … adulthood, or something.
I’m making this out to be more monumental than it is, but it feels that way.
The mornings, the days, the nights.
A chapter closing.
Reminding myself that endings are beginnings.
And at this stage, I have a lot more beginnings than endings ahead.
Previously in leaving: Pullman, Wenatchee.

I like newspapers and cardio.
If any part of our life isn’t monumental, then we probably shouldn’t be experiencing it in the first place
But maybe that’s just me because I just humor myself with the thought that everything I do is monumental, and cite Back to the Future as evidence.
