It wasn’t until we got to Myrtle Beach today and walked out on the beach and hit the water before I realized something. I realized that I really, really miss the ocean. It was a place I got to as a kid every summer, living in NYC, but I haven’t been to an ocean beach in years and years. How could I have forgotten? There’s something sort of sad about that..
For those of you who haven’t seen the news on my other blog I’m going to be switching jobs at the end of next week. I’m going to be leaving the first job I had after being in the hospital, getting divorced, and finally getting healthy through therapy and off anti-depressants. The job I’ve had,…

No, I’m not all that upset about it. Frankly,…
