These shoes are bananas! If 1. they were in my size and 2. I thought I might be able to walk in them without killing myself I’d probably be seriously tempted.

“I kept trying to freeze time and press each minute to my palms”

Rach.

This post points out to myself a large part of why I’m so terrified to move to Orange County, California. I’m not sure that I’m an Orange County girl. I’m not sure that I will have those sorts of moments there. I don’t think that I will fit in. But I know that I can’t shirk away from this opportunity because of that fear. I don’t -know- that these things are true, I just fear that they are.

The email I sent last night. This is really happening.

Hello my dearest dears,

FRP and a few others who might be interested, I am sad to inform you that I will be leaving this incredible place and program. I am not, however, sad about why I’m leaving. I have accepted a position as the Editor in Chief of a start up magazine in the OC. I am simultaneously thrilled and terrified about this, which makes me believe that it’s the right decision.

I cannot even begin to express to you all how amazing my experience here has been. I am so proud to have been a part of such an amazing program and working alongside some of the most talented, smart, and dedicated people I have ever met. Certainly the families that I have worked with have made my time here seem worthwhile, but it is my co-workers who have made my time here so enjoyable and at certain times, bearable. I could not have made it with out you all and I hope that you realize that.

But before you (and I) get all weepy, you aren’t rid of me just yet. My last day will be May 2 and I assure you that I will be in full force until my very last day.

Thank you for putting up with my loud mouth,

Elizabeth

3:42 am via text message. Change is in the air.

  • Adam: Sorry no progress on the mag. Had a huge issue both at [redacted] and with the apartment. All taken care of tomorrow hopefully and total attention on the mag from then on.
  • Me: That's cool. I'm giving my job a month notice this week so they have time to hire someone new and I've got some more ideas that we can talk about tomorrow.
  • Adam: Go to bed!
  • Me: That's where I am. My phone just wakes me up since I'm on call 24/7. I can't wait for that to change.

Katie’s scarf is finished. Too bad I forgot to bring it to work for her. I also wish I could have gotten a better picture of the stitch definition. Oh wells.
