    Navigating Uncharted Waters…

    September 8, 2013 /No Comments

    My new apartment is a brave new world. It dawned on me, as I sat in my most recent Craigslist acquisition, that I am really doing it! I am making my apartment my home.  It helps that my belongings, which until recently had been in storage in New Jersey, are inbound, thereby bringing closure to my move West.

    I know he won’t read this, ever. But I feel like if I don’t rant on this somehow, it is going to fester and rot inside of me.
