you suck. i officially forbid you to move to ohio. we all know that oregon is much better than ohio. oregon loves you. ohio just wants to convert you to its evil red-state ways. i think the mid-western cold has frozen your brain cells. you owe us a visit when you get here…or at least some souvenirs from your vacation “i’m secretly moving to ohio” trip. amy and alex, your job is to stop her in colorado. colorado is way closer better than ohio.
kthxbye

I just wrote a long, eloquent response and your stupid question thingy made it go away. Argh. Anyway, I also wish Christine would live in the same state as me; I don’t like anyone here as much as I like her. That said, I do understand the purpose and importance of her being with her family in Ohio for a while. Also, don’t forget, with Christine, the more you tell her to do something, the more she will do the opposite (I love you, Christine, but we both know it is true). That is why she is forbidden from moving to Denver for school. Forbidden!

i too understand the reasons for living in ohio. i am just sad that my friend is going to be more permanently out of eugene. i actually support whatever her choice is, but in the meantime, my “official” stance is that she sucks because now i will have to miss her in a she’s-not-coming-back kind of way.

HA! i was wondering if people would get confused about that. the thing is “christine” is too many letters for the caller id on my cell phone, so it just shows up as “christ…”. ellipses and everything.

If you would like to forbid me from going to graduate school, I would welcome the attempt, cause right now I can’t think of a good reason why I want to go. I have 21 hours to figure it out. I also plan to sleep, eat, and perhaps workout in that small interval, so the clock is ticking. My head hurts A LOT becasue of it. Boo me and my procrastination but I’m hoping any moment now, for a stroke of genius.
As far as banning me from Ohio, well…that’s a little trickier. Oregon may love me and I sure as hell appreciate the state, but there’s not a whole lot left to do here that doesn’t involve some sort of backward movement in time (read: having my old job back, going to the UO, driving aimlessly around Corvallis) so I am hard pressed to find a reason to stay.
In limbo and waiting for that stroke of genius to determine whether or not I can actually apply and maybe even go to grad school, leaves a hole in my calendar where there’s not a whole lot to do. Conveniently, another hole exists in my life in the way of family, and mine being so damn far away. Adding these things up, Ohio is not an evil red state (1st dem gov in 16 years just inducted btw, exciting) but rather the place I come from. It may be red, yes, but somehow in places that aren’t Eugene people don’t focus so much on such issues (overtly) and it’s easier to ignore. For what that might be worth.
Yes, sad for many reasons but holds so much promise and if nothing else, a change. Amen! Back to waiting for genius.
