Tropical Storm...

[eruthros]

... It just started raining here. They're predicting winds up to 30 mph. I may be on crack, but that doesn't seem bad at all. I mean, I've surveyed on sand dunes with a nice 300 foot drop off to the Pacific in 30 mph winds.

Still, it's really weird to see rain, gray skies, and wind rustling the trees, and instead of thinking "mmm, hot chocolate and fireplace" thinking "do we have any more mango sorbet?"

The apartment's still a mess; I've been putting furniture together. Today I went by the Laurel Hill Cemetery, walked around, got hit on by a guy with a gold front tooth (who was very blunt, and after I said no asked if I had any sisters or girlfriends), looked at old memorials, and left before I got rained on.

OK, so you bought the ticket on the 8th, mentioned being in Berkeley on the 10th, and now are officially *in* Philly without posting or making a pit stop in S.C.? Harumph!

But seriously, good luck out there!

Yah, I got kinda ... busy. And crazy. And my parents-finally-realizing-I-was-really-leavingy. And then I couldn't get in touch with anyone quickly enough to make plans, so... no Santa Cruz for me. You should come out and visit! ::g:: Once I finish putting together the furniture, that is.

Wow... big change, man. Though Philly and I have had some rough times (it's the New York City to my Homer Simpson, if you can catch that reference), I'm convinced you'll like here on the east coast. It's drearier, but dark tones are more flattering!
