Jennifer let me take a shower at her new house and took me to the airport ever so early. I had debated who should take me to the airport because I knew some people would make me cry! So as the fates would have it Jennifer is borrowing my car while I am gone so she was voted the one, and she was the perfect person to take me because she made it fun, not sad, of course she did! She took this picture of me at MSP--see not crying! And so I left one roomie to the next. My new room mate, which out here we call each other "house mate" was waiting to pick me up, soy latte, in hand, excitement on face, and I was great-full. We drove to our new house in Berkeley, she has been there for 2 days unpacking. It is very California, that means, just different from Mpls, more raw I guess, they don't need the same climate related things we do in the midwest, so things are just different. The house is clean and open and light, I wasn't really when I got into it though, this sort of big change is such a huge adjustment. It was all I could do to not cry every time a Mpls friend called to ask how my first day was!...the answer is "too much" ! So it's getting better and I miss everyone and everything, but I am adjusting and it doesn't feel real yet, it will.
