I'm bone tired from doing more packing, but believe it or not, I packed all my clothes except what I'll need for the next 9 days, cleaned out my entire closet. I'm very proud of myself.
I'll muster up enough strength to share today's dopey #CountdownToCanada gif. (click on the hashtag to see them all. Hammy's in one!)
I’m getting sad about you leaving … and I don’t know why, since we’ve never met in person and I’m on the other side of the US! Is anyone else feeling this?
PS — I’m really happy for you that you’re getting to fulfill a hard-won dream for you & your family. Best wishes!
@bronakins I know exactly what you mean. When Emptywheel moved to Ireland, it hit me hard, the exact same way. We’d worked together on a show or 2, and have followed each other for years, but never met, btw. I had no idea she was moving (not for the same reasons we are), but still… I felt sad. And jealous.
@GottaLaff
I'm happy for you but at the same time sad for the country I grew up proud of and hoped for 50 years we could put reagan behind us and resume the optimism that died 11/22/63. My best wishes for a comfortable new life up there. I still retain a faint hope for us.
@dbc3 Thanks. I retain a faint hope too, but in the meantime, I need some peace. Even in little gulps, because there’s no way to escape the horrors, but respites are welcome.
Thanks for understanding my dilemma— feeling loss and sad for me but happy for you.
Ps—Selfishly I realized I’m worried that you’ll lose interest in goings on “south of the border” here, and I won’t have you as one of my main sources of news.
Of course, moving to Ireland hasn’t daunted @emptywheel from her enlightening commentary on US politics etc. I guess the US is such a “Bigfoot” in the world, it’s smart to keep tabs on us.
