so today i suppose it’s official.   i put in my notice at my job, i have two appointments to view my apartment tomorrow, a spending-freeze, box collecting, nostalgia, tears, tears, tears.   honest to god i feel like im going through a break-up.   and how i’m crying as i write this blog you’d think i was watching The Voice or The Biggest Loser or something…

starting tomorrow i have one month left in the city that will change my life forever, and so many fucking amazing people that will change my life forever.      in a month i leave my family in chicago to return to my family family….(until i most likely accumulate an suv, more studio junk and a dog, then head to the mountains)

words cannot express the gratitude i feel for my experience here.   i could just burst.   so chicago friends, you know i am annoyingly passionate.  if i hug you and tell you how much i love you, go with it. :)    lets drink some bourbon and be merry.    

but its not just sad, i am SO HAPPY, cause if you know me, you know my family is my favorite thing in the entire world.    and i cant wait to be around them on a regular basis.  they are my very very best friends, and i just long to be near them again on a regular basis.     

so, chicago, its been a whirlwind.  it’s not goodbye, but see ya later.    let’s make some more memories i wont be able to tell my kids in the next 4 weeks.  muah!

the service industry really really makes you appreciate a friday night at home. drinking wine, listening to music (maybe smoking a cigarette, sorry, mom) on my back “porch”. I’ve grown a bit tired of the city recently, but tonight I’ve appreciated it again. in the building in my view I see a couple having dinner, I can hear her laughing, it’s not creepy, it’s the city. I feel like my foot is maybe out the door here, but I’ll appreciate every minute till my new adventure.

I just set my coffee timer to have the coffee made when I wake up, set my alarm to let me know “coffee is ready” when I wake up my coffee has been made, I’m confused.

it is seriously a shame I work nights so im never home to see the natural light in my apartment as the sun goes down. it’s perfect
