I Think a Change..... Will Do Me Good
I'm leaving...
on a jet plane...
That's right. I'm packing my bag and heading up to the great northwest territory to visit a good friend of mine who moved there last summer. J followed the winds of change and took a leap of faith in moving up to Seattle...a place she had longed to go to. We keep in contact, and from my perspective, it's been a joy to 'watch' her evolve into a softer and more open spirit as she follows her new path ... as Sheryl Crow so famously crooned...
I think a change.....will do you good!
The other day, a commercial caught my eye - $99 fares/one way to Seattle. I just had to think about it. Dear J was all over it...yes, YES! You need to come up! So I am. I leave in early July for 4 days of green,cool, hairy-armpit hippyville, good coffee Washington state. I’m nervous about this. Really. To the point of dread. Stupid, I know. I can think of 17 reasons why I shouldn’t do this. But for some reason, they are all overshawdowed by one simple one:
I need to do this...
for so many reasons...
at least 17 of them...
so I am.

Oh you DO need to do this...I'm telling you, there's nothing like a single gorgous gal going on a fun trip (you will feel so cosmopolitan...believe me, I've done it) buy yourself a new comfy plane outfit, splurge on good fashion magazines and smile smile smile...I am so very excited to hear all about it, say with all the other girls under the stars (and the candles of one pink chandelier...or however you spell that) drinking lemon merangue...or however you SPELL that...sheesh! Martinis!!!
Buon Voyage...have a fabulous time, for all 17 reasons!!!
