With geese in it...
Feb. 14th, 2005 08:24 amDialog while driving to work past the fields that are now a temporary swamp.
"Every time I come back from the Bay Area now, Santa Barbara seems like a dream."
"Kind of like a nightmare?"
(MLW looks out the window)
"But at least there's Canadian geese> It can't be all bad with Canadian geese, right?"
"...Canadian geese are good."
We went up to the bay area this last weekend, visited friends, saw a neat play, ate good food, and did some gardening. It was a wonderful time, and I really appreciated being up there. More and more I feel more connection to the bay area, where most of our friends are, where both of us belong.
Now though, I'm back in Santa Barbara, and feeling more than ever like I want to be out of here. Out of this place of no job prospects and limited horizons. All we have to do is save the money up for this- and this time it is NOT going to take as long as it did to prepare for our wedding. Waiting for the summer of 2006 is far too long.
Another note: I just found out that Sonicwall has been ramped up so that everything on the web except for about three sites are blocked- including the websites I need to go to as part of my job. *sigh* I have GOT to get out of this town.
