A New Chapter

It's been a number of years since I've blogged but I'm excited to start up again. My creative juices are flowing again and I'm excited to collect them in the form of writing.

I recently moved to a large city. I live in the middle of the city, which is a totally new experience for me. I'm in my bedroom typing but can most distinctly hear the roar of the traffic from the highway which is one and a half blocks from my house. At times it feels as if buildings and people are falling in on me. But really, it probably isn't that bad. Both my brothers live in much more crowded cities.

I've been here three weeks today. Each day this place feels more and more comfortable. City driving (which was a big deal when I first arrived) is getting more normal. I still haven't gone to the same grocery store twice. I get around less and less with the GPS and rely more and more on intuition and maps to get me places. Thrift stores here are AMAZING!!! All the varieties of ethnic foods make me hungry and anxious to get a job so I can go enjoy them.

Stay tuned for (hopefully) more adventures in the city.

Peace,
ME
