Brian is on the ferry on his way to Seattle, where he will catch a bus to the airport and fly to San Francisco.
I am sitting here in the quiet house, looking at the dapples of sunlight blinking on the walls and floors, and thinking about what to do with myself for the next six days.
I suppose there is a bright side: one of the main characters in my book finds herself in this situation, sort of. Being alone and without a job in a small town where she doesn’t know anyone. Now I get to experience what that’s actually like! Except I have two awesome cat buddies to hang out with.
So it’s Monday, which is clean the house day. Then, since the sky is clear, I will take a 3-mile walk. Also I should go get a library card.
I miss having friends around. I feel isolated, and sometimes I feel like no one misses me.
I wish we could have come to see you two week before last, but I promised my stepdad when I missed that funeral that I would go and see them…I MISS YA!!!
I hope you can come up here soon! Did you get the postcard I sent? Also I’m sorry to hear about your car, I suppose the bright side is that you were planning to replace it anyway. Did your insurance cover theft in any way?
Nope, I had bare-bones coverage, as that car was pretty crappy. I was thinking of donating it, actually. If/when I get it back, I will sell it for parts.
I am actually getting new ins. quotes today, as I have narrowed down my car choices. I am changing my insurance address to Jesse’s, as his ‘hood makes it cheaper. I’m also getting quotes for both of our cars to see if that saves any cash, but so far it isn’t amounting to much.
I am totally going to get comp and collision for my new(er) car for the duration of the time that I live in Riverwest. Once I am garaging it in bayview, I may cancel the comp.
I am sure your friends miss you. I also think it was really brave of you to up and move so far from your friends, most people, (myself included) play it safe and you haven’t.
Anyway, I hope you have a good week, go get your library card! (I’m a librarian and those things are important.)
thank you, that means a lot 🙂 the hardest thing about leaving was definitely saying goodbye to my close friends in the Bay Area.
