Dear Internet Giga-Diary,
moving, packing, thinking, fearing, and diving in
Tue, July 15, 2008 - 6:16 PMMoving in 2 weeks. Wow... a shocking thought. It still hasn't hit me yet. Survival instincts kicking in. My body/mind knows that I shouldn't think about it till later... else I'll be freakin.
Last night was fun, danced a LOTTT. I came to a realization though, I've been drinking way too much the past few weeks at the club, and otherwise. I'm going to cut back. I think it's due to stress and the desire to just have a good time, but I have been using so many "numbing" things such as drinking alcohol and coffee, eating unhealthful foods, and numbing my brain with non-creative non-stimulating activities like watching television.
Today however was a great start to a new way of being. Made sure to drink water, worked out at the gym, didn't drink or watch tv. I am going to try to keep this up...
I got a storage unit yesterday in Campbell. Chase, his sister and I went in together on it so that it was affordable for all of us.(that is why it's so far away from me, because they will be accessing it more than me since I'll be out of the area). The storage place itself is pretty cool, it's very Road Warrior-esque... it's like old semi truck trailers stacked together on a dusty gravel lot... haha, perfect...
My kitties are adorable and growing already. Cecil (the boy) is really growing fast... he is such a sweetie. Lucca (the girl) is soooo cute and sweet too! Getting to know them is so much fun. The only problem is at night, Lucca will snuggle up right next to my face with her face and paw my cheeks and stuff and it seriously wakes me up. LOL! Then, to make matters worse, Cecil still has the instinct to nurse, so he nurses on Lucca. It is sooo funny, he follows her everywhere on the bed when it's sleepytime. She'll paw my face and he's like suckling on her. I have had to close the door at night to get some sleep! They are very active and careen around the house, up the bed, wrestling each other, two little balls of fur and claws.
I don't know yet where I'll be living, exactly... I think I'll be able to stay with my dad in a loft in the back of his shop, for a while until I find an apartment.
My knees are shaky with uncertainty, I feel as if my spirit is leading me somewhere and I'm not sure where yet, or why or how! I have to just trust it.
I'll be starting a new life, a new beginning... with the ultimate goal of finding true happiness, satisfaction and love and life and truth.
I am no longer the 'coastal creature' I once was... I am transforming... I will be more nomadic now...
Life is endlessly amazing, is it not??
I want to hike and see new places and meet people from small towns and breathe in different sights and smells and sounds....
My dear friends Miiica, Shadow, and Deveni are hosting a going-away party for me, I think it will be on the 25th of July, over in the East Bay. There will be a tasty dinner, and I'm told it's a beautiful home... please come if you feel inclined to! I will give you more info later...

good luck
moving is a lot of work and a place to get to in your head first how will you be in your new life? |

transformation
I hope it brings you new joy! I was pretty freaked when I moved out to CA from IN, but it seems to have worked out pretty well :) Best of luck in this new stage of your life - I hope the kitties won't be screamers during the move, but they'll probably be a good constant for you after the move.
*hugs!* |

how will I be? I will be an observant, blissful nomad... at least that is my desire!
Cinder, the kitties are pretty good in the car so far! I've been taking them on little trips so they become used to it. They actually sleep in their little cat carrier sometimes, so they should be comfy there... Thank you.. |
