It's time to start thinking about a job. I love the job I have now (the writing part anyway) but its not looking like I will be taking it with me when I move. So...what can I do for money in NY? I'm thinking maybe something at Conde Nast--nobody wants to work there, right? (hahaha). Seriously though, I believe it is totally possible for me to find something that I don't absolutely hate.
I fly to NY tomorrow with my work and I will try to look at some apartments the roommates have already located while I'm there. It will be my first time in Brooklyn. That will be interesting. I have nothing at all against Brooklyn, but I am very nervous about finding the right train, getting off at the right spot, not looking like a complete moron as I wander the streets in a disoriented panic. Okay I am spiralling. I will try to stop doing that. Thursday is going to be about fun so I am going to try not to worry about a thing until after that point. I am also excited to see one of my roommates from college who lives in..Bay Ridge, I believe. We are going to have a bite and take a walk around. I haven't seen her in four years! Wow, that feels unbelievable. Four years since graduation. Why didn't I move up sooner? I feel in my bones that I had to learn lots of lessons first. I was basically a child when I graduated. I am still so naive in many ways, but I have grown up a lot since then. I am ready to give it a go so I really can't regret waiting for the right time. And now I do believe it is here.

Tell Kim I said Hey! I'm starting to save up some money for a vacation up there.
I visited your blog from a link Peggy Payne had. Just some encouragement about your move. I have a daughter living in Brooklyn (did have two daughters living there). She moved from NC and loves Brooklyn (she lives in Park Slope), teaches high school, gets around just fine. So will you, I'm sure. It's an adventure. And good luck with that book.
