Thanksgiving in Arizona

I flew down to Arizona for Thanksgiving. If you think I'm a lot of Feldman, think me times 1,000. We ate ourselves silly and listened to a friend of the family go on for literally hours about everything we could ever want to know including what happens if a fireball hits us. It was great to see the family and now I'm back in SF having dreams of cheesecake. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

.hi.

Hope everyone is doing well! I miss you guys!

I realize it's been a min. I don't want to say the novelty of moving has worn off, because it hasn't. It's just that all of a sudden real life set in. More and more I know the decision to move here was the right one. I needed something for myself, something that was mine. It feels like home. I've said before that it comes in waves, the feeling that I live here now. It didn't seem real for a long time. The other day I was one my way to work. I don't really know where it came from, or why, but it was the first time I missed Seattle. However, at the same time, it was the first time it fully felt like home here. Its hard to explain but I think I didn't miss Seattle because in the back of my mind, Seattle was still "home". Then it switched. San Francisco is now my home and I have a reason to miss Seattle because it is now a destination. Does that translate? I miss Seattle because it's time, because it is no longer me. For a second it made me really sad, but then extremely happy and excited. I've finally switched phases in my life. And who knows what will happen 2, 5, 10 years from now, but for the moment, I have a completely new phase to create. That's exciting!
