Two posts in one day?

This is excessive, but feels necessary. I'm pretty pumped about moving to St. Paul (see today's earlier post), even though I don't have a job yet. Finding the place today (which I hope will work out) kinda felt like karma. I found the place just by walking down the street and calling numbers on every for rent sign in all of the yards (and there were lots), and walking in to the placae, it just felt right. I hope everything works out in that regard.

I am really excited to move on. I really have no place else to go...I'm definitley ready to be done with Eau Claire, my time there is done. If I could move tomorrow, I would. On the other hand, my better half (Alison), is in a completely different boat. She is up at Sawbill for the fourth summer now, and it has been her only real constant over a very traveled college career. Now, she's leaving in her prime (since she's been there 4 summers, she knows how to do everything and is therefor held in very high regard), and it's tough to leave. Especially since she's moving to the Cities, where no job awaits, she's not in school yet, and generally doesn't have any idea of what will happen. So while I'm excited and giddy, she's not so much. Don't get me wrong, she is excited to live with me (I hope!), and to live in the Cities, but it's hard leaving something that has been a huge part of her life. I just hope that I can be supportive in this transition, and not push her unwillingly into the unknown.
