Look at me now.

It’s been three months since I moved to San Francisco, and with the ink drying on my freshly signed, exorbitantly priced lease for my very own apartment I guess I finally live here.

Or, at the very least have a permanent address for the next 12 months.

Living without a nest is begrudgingly difficult for a Cancer. I don’t follow astrology very closely, but the one trait that always sticks with me is the need for Cancers to have a strong connection to their home.

Since May, I’ve lived in three different apartments that weren’t my own - which is a bit nerve wracking when you lived in the same place for a year and a half prior to packing up and high-tailing it cross country with one week’s notice.

So, now I have a home. 

Hurrrrfuckingrah!

An update (or something)

So, let’s have real talk for just a moment. Mmkay, Tumblr?

In two weeks:

I went to New York.

Realized I was complacent.

Shook it up.

Made a decision.

Made a change.

Kicked off the dust.

Ended a two year relationship.

But myself in a tailspin.

Put all my cards on the table.

Used too many cliches.

Laughed at how totally crazy this is.

Questioned just about everything I thought was okay.

And am completely excited for what happens next.

Let’s do this.
