in brooklyn for spring break having major epiphanies. example: i love nyc more than any other place i have ever been, but i do not want to live here anymore. leaving brooklyn to move to be with todd in staunton always seemed like a slightly premature exodus from the city that never sleeps. pangs of city-sickness hit me over the last 2 1/2 years. but today walking around i suddenly realized that i don’t really want to pack up and move back, for all my love of this place and walking and stores and people and diversity that i wouldn’t trade my house and yard and job and friends to be back. it came as a quite relief to have this revelation, and to understand that i wasn’t being disloyal to new york in so much as loyal to my new home.
