lately i have been feeling the absence of a lot of things: namely Jim (who is in Seattle for work 4 days out of the week), but there are many people/feelings/places that I have been missing since we've moved.
My mom is a big one: she's my rock, the person who I turn to when I need to talk, to listen, to walk and to remember who I am. It is weird getting used to a new relationship with her. I'm so accustomed to calling her up randomly and walking around greenlake for an hour, just chatting about our daily lives, reciting stories that need input and qualms about work or life. We are such kindred spirits, which must sound odd, considering we are mother & daughter, but we feel so much more like sisters than most parent/child relationships tend to be. It is definitely strange to be /without/ my mom.
Work is another...I'm fueled by work. It's so odd for me to be unemployed. Even for the 17 days. Holy shit...seventeen days!!! I can't stand it! I'm going to put in more resumes on Wednesday, but hopefully I will get the job that I already interviewed for: Wasteland. A great, established, beautiful vintage store right in the center of Haight. I honestly think that it would be a great fit for me, after meeting the manager and staff (seem to know their shit: I spotted an adorable 1940s peter pan collared dress on the floor for $26 and purchased. The girl seemed upset that it was priced so low, but I was excited!!). I just want to be back working with clothes and pretty people.
I miss seattle too, but not really the city. My friends I miss....Hopefully more of them will come visit!
I am happy to be with the boy and the girl. I am about to mingle them so hopefully the meeting will go well. I am with a beautiful city that is welcoming and abounding with adventures! I am with some lovely strangers who I am yet to meet but I am sure we will become good friends eventually.

goodnight
