TCB at 601 mph

I'm headed back east for a brief visit. The time has gone quickly, but I can't say that I'm surprised. I've enjoyed myself. To tell the truth, I'm a bit burnt out. My usual diet is a bit out of wack. Looking forwa   I've stayed with family & friends the whole trip. The accommodations have been great everywhere I've gone. Some a bit cramped, but no love was spared in preparation for my visits. It's been moving—very moving.  


What I return home to is my apartment. I've been in my apartment for over seven years. I don't like the place. I have a roommate who, though easy going in most ways, is very particular about certain aspects of the place. Cleanliness is not one of those aspects. He's a bit of a hoarder when it comes to paperwork. It's good to keep records, but I don't really have a kitchen table, it's so covered in old bills. It's time to admit that it doesn't work for me. I have made the declaration to myself that I was going to move out. Because I never said it out loud, I took no action. I have several opportunities for new places. I have been considering the options. Staying in Boston seems easy. Having grown up around Portland Maine, that's also close to my heart. I'm also drawn to Santa Rosa, CA. Anyone who knows me knows I have a niece and nephew there that I adore.   When the JetBlue "All You Can Jet" opportunity first presented itself to me, I was at home. I have JetBlue's Cheeps (Low fares they announce on Twitter) set to arrive as SMS messages.   


The moment the message arrived, I knew I was going to do it. I didn't purchase it right away. I weighed the option. I registered this blog domain. A few hours later I purchased my ticket and my adventure began.   So before I head back out on my journey Friday morning, I will book my last tickets and I will inform my roommate that I am moving out. You have my word.
