4 months and counting til I'm home for good! Yay!

About Me

I grew up in sunny, beautiful California and 4 years ago moved to Boston. People in both locations ask me what in the world I was thinking. I ask myself this very question around the fourth month of winter. I knew not a soul in Massachusetts. I'd never even been there before.While there are 60 schools in the greater Boston area, I didn't come for school. I went to UC-Santa Barbara. In fact I liked it so much there, I stayed for 5 1/2 years. Ok, maybe there was another reason I stayed so long. Sorry mom and dad. Anyway, I moved to Boston because I always wanted to. End of story. It is a wonderful city. It is full of history. It has THE RED SOX whom you can't help but become a rabid fan of if you live here. And it has a very tall and equally wonderful man named Adam whom I have been lucky enough to call my boyfriend for the last 3 years. We moved to the Bay Area 6 months ago and are currently living in El Cerrito. To everyone back in Boston, I miss you and hope you visit if you are ever in the area. To those Californians I haven't been able to see in far too long, I'm back and can't wait to make up for lost time!
