Goodbye, California

Well I decided to get happy again.

So while I was shopping for a cute outfit in Target on the phone with my Mom I decided I didn't like my job anymore and it was time to go back home to northern Virginia.
Within about 25 minutes, I lined up my two old jobs at AAA and Lone Star and called Jeff (who's coming out to visit me from VA next week) that we're taking my truck back together--all of this while still aimlessly wandering around Target.

I lasted 6 months. I guess I'm pretty impulsive. But for those of you that have been reading me for a while know that whole nanny deal was absolute hell and I had two weeks to move from VA to CA so hell I might as well make it two weeks from CA to VA, that would be quite an accomplishment.
I told Bethany. She said I'm lucky that I'm never tied down to anything that I can just pick up and do this kind of stuff. I guess she's right. I'm not a millionaire but I'm not in any amount of debt--no college, no credit cards--and hopefully never will be.

So I get to go home now.
Mom's boss in D.C. has offered to pay for our hotel rooms and my mom insisted on paying for the gas.
So next Wednesday Jeff's flight comes into San Diego and I've decided to make that day my last one. I'll show him the beaches and downtown and all the beautiful things SD has to offer and then I'm throwing what little I have--because I threw everything away to come out here in March--in the back of my truck and we're off to the east coast.

I would have like to waited maybe another years but this oppurtunity would have never have come again and I had to take it. It's like a love story adventure! Jeff and I have known each other since I was 16 and he was 19. 5 years later he's flying across the country to drive me home! He was joking just last month about how he was going to kidnap me and take me back and now he gets to!!!

So anyway, my primary focus is to simply just get home.
I just now got a fax from AAA to fill out the application for rehire and I timed it so that it was while my boss was on her lunch break.
I'm not sure if I should tell them.
It's horribly unorthodox to just up and leave but I certainly don't want to be treated like shit for the next week either.

I better get back to work.

But the cool thing about Mindsay is I get to take you guys with me no matter where I go
