The Rubberband Theory
A little over 8 months ago, Toby was offered a job in San Francisco. We turned them down because the money wasn’t good enough and we didn’t know if we actually could move all the way across the country in the time allotted. They came back to us with a new offer. We turned it…

Updates on Random
I’m back in San Francisco. Today, consists of cleaning (I’m still in shock as to how Toby lived here for a month and managed NOT to drown beneath a ton of cat hair and vomit. I will teach him about the word “vacuum” tonight.) The flight back was wonderful. Again. Jetblue puts me at ease.…

Explosion Strikes North East D.C.
Last night something exploded behind Soung and David’s house at around 12:45 a.m. I heard the sound through my toothbrushing and thought that it was a door slamming and someone had just entered through the back door. I knew Soung was out of town. And David was working for another hour. The dogs were barking,…

Life Speed
Toby and I got up at 4:30 this morning so I might drop him off for a 6:45 a.m. flight back to San Francisco. It’s now 8:30 a.m. and I am dead-tired. Already. And the work-day has only just begun. Overall, it was a great weekend. It was nice to spend some time with Toby…

Fluff
Ever wake up feeling totally inspired? Today, I woke up feeling rejuvenated – it’s a good thing, too. Today is our busiest day yet. Nuts. I’d like to begin by setting a few things straight, however. Toby and I are not separated. I am here making money. That is all. I miss him dearly. I…

Longing
So I was just looking through one of Soung’s Dwell magazines and there was this picture of San Francisco. And I sort of missed it all of a sudden. Kind of interesting. Sort of. Maybe not really. I find myself missing Glennwood Springs, Colorado every now and again and we were only there for 14…

Cross Your Fingers For Bruno.
Something totally not so cool has happened. And I worried about it all night while I tried to sleep. It’s a long story, but I’ll get into it anyway. Nearly three weeks ago (a week before I headed east, and two before Toby had) our neighbors, Bob and Cass wen overseas for a long vacation.…

Friends
I think the most helpful thing I have realized while visiting and working in D.C. over the past week is how important it is to be near friends and family. I guess something has changed in me over the past several years. Perhaps it was right around having met Toby, I’m not sure. But either…

…and I will eat yellow.
What a wonderful weekend! Friday night, Soung and I didn’t leave work until after 10 so we decided to relax again on her front porch and not venture out on the town. On Saturday, I worked for a while and finally found a T-Mobile store where I found a new recharger as I left mine…

Relaxation Without Reprobation
I arrived to D.C. yesterday at around 6 p.m. The flight was actually (dare I say) enjoyable? It was perfect – so smooth. Which is a surprise given the number of hurricanes and storms bashing the hell out of the south, or maybe introducing hell to the south. Soung’s house is astounding. It’s truly beautiful.…
