DAY TWENTY-FOUR

Today, RS and I signed a twelve month lease on a one bedroom apartment a few blocks from my current dwelling. I’m excited about this, but also pensive. What, can’t I be both? It’s just that I had made plans earlier in the year to move to the west coast this summer. And although I have been cognizant of the fact that I will most likely not be moving west for another two years (because RS just started trade school) it really hit me when Bjorn, the guy who was showing the space, said the words "one" and "year" and "lease."
