I love California. Why I spent most of my life in the south(New Orleans,LA) is beyond me. What took me almost a year to accomplish in Texas I have done in a week in California. I have a non-temp job(the 1st I've had since post Katrina), I am enrolled in school, my daughter is in school, and I have a truck(which I've never had). This place is awesome. The fresh air and mountain are great and their no tourists passed out drunk on my lawn. Ooo! and I just got a puppy. His name is Blaze and he is 8weeks old and so damn cute. AAAH! Life is lovely right now.
