Meant to be

Actually about my last post, I kind of let it get away from me. The first few sentences were meant to be about moving to Austin. But...

I don't know why I was so surprised about this. Coming from KCC...it's not shocking at all. There was a girl who didn't know about the Haiti Earthquake 5 days after it, 'oh yeah wasn't there a hurricane down there or something?". This is the same girl who kept saying immaculate consumption, and really thought that was the right terminology. Her dad gives her $1000 a month just for clothes. Then there are the germophobes who freaked out after I announced all paper plates, plastic cups and knives in the kitchen would be removed, and we would add to the reusable collection we already have. "I don't trust the dishwasher, people are nasty here". Then there's the chick who short circuited the entire room plugging in a space heater when our part of the office is already 80 degrees everyday. There's the guy who thinks global warming is a hoax. Another one who has no conception of volume control and insists on shouting about everything. There are the supervisors who do all but a few hours of work a day, and yell at us for socializing, while they hold up in the back room making jokes about sex. Or the guy who set the kitchen on fire because he put paper in the toaster over. Or the peopel who are engaged after 4 months of dating.

Yes Yes.
It's getting away from me again. Can you blame me though...really? But I suppose it's all related to the samething in a way.

The Austin move is on the brink of happening. Jordan put in for interest to xfer and apply for a position that was opened there. Not the one he wants there, but another very similar opportunity. I could be a Texan within the next two months. I don't feel weird or nervous about saying that. I think that shows how much I've given up on California, or maybe that this year discussion about moving was meant to be.
