A slightly more detailed account...
I moved to Eugene Oregon in early 2000 with the intention of staying there. I loved it there, I was close to my family and I was happier with my environment than I have been since. Unfortunately six months in to living there my ex who was still my wife at the time had a pretty rough breakdown and wanted to move back to michigan to be close to her family and home. We came back and it was extremely difficult for me. I have thought about getting back out there almost everyday since, I talk about it alot, and now I am really doing it.
I discussed it with my daughter's mother and my work, I have arranged my job and a place to stay and started repairing a fairly unhealthy relationship with my father. I have not yet told my mother that I am leaving and I do not look forward to it, she and I are not close but the realization that not only am I far away but that it will severely limit how often she sees her first grandchild is not going to be easy. I thought about it though, and unfortunately someone is going to suffer, but it is not going to be me.
So now I have forty six days til I leave, and I am going through a mix of feelings and fears. I am excited to be leaving but I am stressed out because it is so far off. It will get easier for me as it gets closer, and harder for those that are close to me. I am leaving alot of friends behind, and when I arrive I will not know many people. Still its going to be amazing for me, and as you all know I do quite well with meeting new people.
My daughter will be in town for the first week of april, so none of my celebrating will take place until after the 8th. I am hoping to have a casual night at the bar on the ninth to herald in the abuse that is to come, when I have details I will post them but it will likely just be Necto in Ann Arbor. After that if anyone wants to plan anything specific let me know so I can work around it. I am going to see Goatwhore on Saturday the 21st and I VNV nation the following night I think. Everything else is fair game.
Enough for now, I will speak with you all soon.
