Revisiting New Beginnings

It's strange how life changes between blog posts. Theoretically this would be amended by more frequent journaling but the nostalgia induced by flashing back (in this case) 9 months is to be embraced rather than avoided. My intent is always to blog more regularly but my "fill every moment" brand of lifestyle tends to leave little wiggle room for random exposition.

However, this is a moment of transition and I shall therefore carve out a sliver of time for collaborating with the thoughts inside my head.

Ready?

I've moved to Denver.

As I'm sure you've heard me gripe, fighting through frigid winters has never been my predilection. Trapping someone indoors who lives to exist in the open air is standard faire in the north but that makes it no more palatable to me.

My knee jerk response to an inquiry about my hobbies has always been to rattle off "hiking, biking and kayaking". But when you consider that the streets, rivers and trees up north are buried under a solid layer of ice and snow for the majority of the year, it quickly becomes clear that I needed a redirection of hobbies or locale.

Knowing that another season of cabin fever would result in more angst than the world needs, I sent carrier pigeons to the far corners of my world and was accepted for a Denver based internship before I'd even applied.

And so here I am!

Footloose and fancy free

On my own

Reaching into the unknown

No looking back

Only moving forward

Whittling myself a new life

For now.

Until the winds change.
