I have news.

So remember that recent post about being at home in Austin? Almost immediately after I wrote and posted it, something happened to change everything. Andrew got a job offer, which he's accepted, that will take us both to Seattle. The move comes soon--he's going in a few weeks and I'll go up after graduation (oh yes, I am planning to finish, finally).

Not sure what this will mean. We're looking forward to it, but we also have massive anxiety about the logisitics of the move (at least we're not doing the physical moving, thank goodness). And of course we're sad to be leaving here, where we've both lived for more than 10 years.

On the other hand, it's been almost 90 the last couple of days, and while the evenings have been picture-perfect, the daytime heat reminds us both of something we've never totally gotten used to here. Although I never felt like I let the heat get in my way, the prospect of living in a more temperate climate is very appealing. Plus there are mountains and sea up there.

There are lots of other things I'm thinking about all of this, but I expect I'll let them out in bits and pieces over time so that this doesn't become my Moving Anxiety Blog. On the other hand: does anyone have any advice for flying with a cat?
