this was a text message that started the day....the day after a crazy wild night of drinking and excessiveness. two nights in a row now of 5 or 6 hours of sleep. i am zombie and brain does not function at the high level i need it to. car broke on sunday night. no car. hard to do stuff when no car. lucky enough to be able to carpool w/ coworkers but it takes additional time for the added coordination and then no time to fix car.
i only have 3 days left at my job. i haven't started to pack my office yet. my goodbye lunch is on wednesday with some close work friends and i'm looking forward to it very much. all of my projects are pretty much handed over. i have a list of stuff to get completed, expense reports, etc and will hopefully accomplish it all tomorrow.
This is a picture of me and Tasha, my first family pet and loyal wonderful german shepard. This picture was taken outside of the house my family and I lived in when I was a teenager growing up in the bay area subburbs. This is after I'd graduated from high school and moved away to Washington State 2 weeks later to be with my boyfriend/fiance. My mom likely snapped this picture when I was down visiting from WA. looks like it was likely about a year after I moved, so likely 1993 as I'd put on weight from living on top ramen and mac n cheese constantly. what is up with my clothes too? i look like i borrowed them from my boyfriend.....Washington changes you..and not always in the good way :)
After 11 years at my current northwest nasdaq software giant, I have decided that I am not moving up to Washington State and that I really don't want to travel anymore either. Subsequently and coincidently, I wonderful exciting opportunity came along by the way of bay area networking device company and I decided to jump off of the Cliffs of Change! I gave my notice and July 3rd is my last day in the office. Technically and ironically if i might add- July 4th, independence day is my last day but they are most graciously giving me that day off. New company swooned me and I am very pleased I have made this decision. It feels like the best thing in the world right now. I can't wait for this new chapter in my life to begin. right now, i am saying goodbye, wrapping up and winding down my career at company X......
A long lost friend found some old pictures of me and zoe's dad, Chris, from high school recently. She scanned them and sent them over to me in email the other day. Here I am from back in the day...
i've been super busy with work lately. i just looked at my last post and thought, 'wow, thats depressing.' but couldn't even remember the feeling cause it seems like so long ago.
the air is heavy tonight.
each breathe betrays my burden
tears streaming down my cheeks.
a torrential rain of honesty pours from my big green eyes. alone, i weep loudly. life is too hard today.
the watery song gives way for silence, stillness
i am quieted by the nothingness.

just home from Ireland yesterday...10 days with Zoe that were so magical! Here's a few pictures from the trip- I'll try to post more once I have them more sorted and organized..
La Fondue was fucking awesome. 4 hour dinner, a million kinds of fun fondue; it totally exceeded my expectations after waiting like 20 years to go there.
