are we hanging out ever?

Jun 26, 2005

just had a mini panic attack (not in the actual medical sense) about moving. what the hell am i thinking?

hrmm...when i talked to my dad today, he basically said the same thing. which, of course, pissed me off. but it reminded me where that fear and anxiety comes from.

so fuck you dad! i'm gonna do something that is risky, irrational and maybe even...

So when r u moving here to Seattle geckogirl?

Moving to Seattle might be "risky" or "irrational" but it certainly isn't "not smart". It is a very cool place and lots of cool people live here. I know becaue I grew up here (did not fuly appreciate the coolness factor then), lived in Cali for a while (for the work thing) and just moved back a couple years ago (new perspective on Seattle). And besides all that summers here are totally awesome! TOTALLY!

One word of caution is that Seattle people can sometimes be hard to get to know at first--a friend refers to it as a "Scando-Japanese" phenomenon. That said, once you get to know people you find they are totally real and committed to making the world a better place--evidenced by the fact Washington is a blue state.

There is an amazing new Rem Koolhaus library here, a new sculpture park is being built on the waterfront and the art museum is expanding--so the city is on the move culturaly and creatively!

Anyway, hope your move goes well. Do you know what part of the city you want to live in? I recommend checking out Fremont--a groovy, fun, ecclectic, interesting neighborhood and a nexus for creative people.

Drop me a line if I can be of any help.

Sorry about your Dad; I have had my share of differences of opinion with mine (to put it nicely.)

(Great profile pic btw.)

OK, Ciao for now . . . and good luck with your move . . .

i was so spoiled this week! 2 great concerts on 2 beautiful summer nights. those may end up something i miss about atlanta. thinking about how dramatically my life is about to change is exciting, terrifying and overwhelming. this should be interesting.

LOL! itunes shuffle says "Hope" by bauhaus. thanks for the vote of confidence, steve!

right now i am enjoying 5 carrots, 4 celery...

And you have not seen a beautiful night for an outdoor concert yet. You will soon, though. Prettier surroundings, less sweat. First one's my treat.

i am not made of stone. rufus wainwright singing leonard cohen made me cry.

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, the baffled king composing Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof,...

goodnight my wonderfully beautiful redheaded friend.

okay dammit. tomorrow we start the detox. no foolin' this time. i went shopping with hypermediocrity today (i know, that was my first mistake. going shopping with a tiny girl) and one of the stores had evil lighting in the dressing room where i could see the ripple of blubber under every surface. the faster i lose some lbs, the sooner you see a geckogirl...
