as some of you may know, i have lived virtually my entire life, with the exception of about 6-8 months i spent in kentucky when i was 16, in the state of alabama; not only that, but within an approximately 20 mile radius the whole time
now i live just outside of seattle, washington, with my gay boyfriends
it was a long ass drive to get here! about 2600 miles, 40ish hours, over five loving days, approximately. departed on july 8th and arrived on the 12th, with my car, and a uhaul truck driven by my mother, my only unemployed friend who would go for it. the two of us struggle to get along over an extended period of time, so it was rather testing for both of us. but we got here, had dinner with my partners, then I drove her to the airport to catch her flight back home
since then it's been pretty busy around the house between unpacking all my stuff, them unpacking all their stuff, and trying to get the place into a nice and usable state. still not quite there yet, but most of the urgent stuff is taken care of. the living room is still a bit of a wreck though. hoping to get that sorted over the next week or so, so we can start thinking about having friends over and stuff like that. fun
that's about it I figure. just a little update. this is one of the biggest life changes I've ever made and so far it's going pretty well. hope it pays off long term
if any of you people live within driving distance (according to a particular definition of "driving distance") of seattle, and would like to meet a cat in real life, it's possible that I would be game. I'm always looking to add more BLF users to my list of successful irl meetups. unless you're a stuffhead
ok bye
