hi.

I can't walk away from my blog...I tried, I paused, I even bought a new journal. I haven't written a single word in my journal. I probably will, personal thoughts jotted down throughout the next year, but for now. I'm back.

So much has occurred since I last wrote in this blog. Getting closer to the wedding, got a job teaching, and I will be moving in less then a month.

I have been struggling to find a job since I graduated with my Masters over a year ago. Finally, I can say I have a job teaching! I won't be a history teacher, not yet. This next year I will be teaching children of military personnel English. yay! I always said I wanted to work for the DOD, and now I have my chance. Except, it doesn't come with out stress. Unfortunately, I will be living almost 500 miles away from my love. At least, for the first year we will be separated. Sucks, majorly. One shitty year for a lifetime of happiness.

I have never lived outside of Georgia. Okay, let me reiterate, I have no memory of living outside of Georgia. I moved to the Peach State at the age of three from the Tar Heel State, and now at 31 I'm moving back to the Tar Heel State. At least I will still be in the South. I do, however, get to live on the coast. After this weekend, we will find out exactly how on the coast I will be living. There is a possibility I will be living the beach bum life, but with a job.

I will not...will not, be cheering for them Tar Heel Boys, however.
