Telepathically shaping my future.

Last night my Dad told me to try using telepathy on my boss to get him to agree to letting me work in Victoria. Telepathy! My family cracks me up sometimes. He also told me that they would lend me a downpayment for a new place – which I know my Mom will hit the roof when she hears (for the record, they have never leant me money – these things are a big headache in my family) – but I guess he thinks that would be some added incentive to move back. It’s not really, I don’t care if I have to rent for the rest of my life (or at least until I sell my place on the Sunshine Coast) – it’s not what this move is about. But it’s nice that they want me back there – I have heard from two other friends in Victoria as well who have said nice things about having me there as well.

I’m feeling a bit crazy, melancholy, and anxious – but not nearly as tragic. I swam in the ocean on Sunday and Monday, hung out with David in Roberts Creek, and got chores around the house done – and all of those things helped to ease me out of the end of the world state I was in on Saturday morning. Fortunately. All the emails and comments also helped me a lot – so thanks people – I really needed that.

I’ve decided that I’m not going anywhere this month owing to all plans seeming too complex at the moment. I’ve got friends and family visiting through until the end of August at this point, and a few extra days off that I intend to use for relaxing, swimming and visiting (oh yeah, and decluttering my house, I need to pare down my belongings significantly before I move).

Now, if I could just figure out how I’m going to pull off this move to Victoria (aside from the telepathy I’m practicing on my boss) – I can start actualizing the details… If not Victoria, it will be Vancouver for a few months. In any case, I’m renting out my place for November 1st. If there are any interested folks out there, please let me know. I’ll be announcing that more formally in short order.
