my anxiety for all things planned in advance has been rearing it's ugly head lately. soon I'll be faced with the decision of moving to a new apartment or renewing my current apartment's lease for another year. sigh. every spring I go through this...and every spring, out of laziness and indecisiveness, I decide to resign the lease for my current apartment at a grossly inflated price.

but I say NO MORE! three years is long enough!

tomorrow morning I have my first appointment viewing a possible new abode. I'm done with the studio! on to bigger and possibly cheaper(?) things...like a 1 bedroom. alas, the 'cheaper' aspect means staying in my current neighborhood is an unlikely thing. I'm movin' north baby! so friends, family, the next time you come visit me you may have to travel farther to get to downtown, but at least you'll have a couch to sleep on instead of a crummy 10 year old air mattress!

Unknown Legend

She used to work in a diner
Never saw a woman look finer
I used to order just to watch
her float across the floor
She grew up in a small town
Never put her roots down
Daddy always kept movin',
so she did too.

Somewhere on a desert highway
She rides a Harley-Davidson
Her long blonde hair
flyin' in the wind
She's been runnin' half her life
The chrome and steel she rides
Collidin' with
the very air she breathes
The air she breathes.

You know it ain't easy
You got to hold on
She was an unknown legend
in her time
Now she's dressin' two kids
Lookin' for a magic kiss
She gets the far-away look
in her eyes.

After watching the movie Rachel Getting Married Neil Young's song is so much sweeter.

When I was little I paid no attention to St Patrick's Day. None. The only time I remember thinking about it was when I arrived to school on patty's day not wearing any green, which as you know, constitutes a pinch. Now that I'm older, I can't help but notice St Patrick's Day because it's celebrated for 2 weeks straight here in Chicago. Also, my birthday is on the 9th so for the last few years, green hats and green beer have adorned my birthday celebrations.
No, I'm not complaining :) I have amazing friends who help me celebrate in a non-Irish way....bowling!!
