So, I moved from Maine to Michigan in September. September was filled with hopeful Pollyanna-isms, each day a new beginning. In October, doubt about my choice to move began creeping in. November was marked by despair. In December, January, and February, I sunk into a black hole of depression. In March, I began seeking ways out of it. It is April now, and I am just beginning to see the absurdity and humor in the situation, and trying to enjoy the journey while seeking out the right destination. Who knows where I'll end up, but I am happy to say that I am laughing and smiling again.
We are soon moving out of the apartment which received us into the state. Goodbye, kitchen that is so small that I sweep the floor with a whiskbroom. I will not really miss you. But I will be grateful for you teaching me the lesson that I can live with very few physical possessions in a very small space. And for the laughter that you provided me and my girlfriend after arguments when we realized that there was no where to go in the place where we weren't in view of the other.
Goodbye, Conservative Christian City. I will not really miss you either. But I will always remember the way that you forced me to stand up for myself, and how I feel braver and stronger for having been in the shark tank. And at least I have found a target market if I ever decide to begin a Christian bumper sticker business.
And I have an interview this Friday for a new job which, if I do get, I think I will like a lot better than the job I'm in now. But even if I don't get this job, I know I will aggressively pursue another. So I will also bid adieu my current position. Goodbye, current job. There will be nothing about you that I will miss. Okay, maybe I will miss overhearing the gay guy and the straight guy that sit behind me and flirt with each other all day. That is pretty awkward and funny.
And so here I am in my new life, living in a place that I thought I knew, but now I'm trying to get to know all over again. I am trying to remember to look for the positive in the everyday and realize that I might just be here for a good reason (although I haven't quite figured out what that reason might be just yet). And I'm trying to remember to laugh as I move from one absurd situation to the next, viewing my life more as a comedy than a tragedy. Because you can't make this stuff up, folks - it's solid comedy gold.
