It's been decided (by me) that I'll be going to live with Jeff for a few months; Jon wanted me to come with him but I've decided that it's just too soon. So he's going to stay with his friend Chuck (he's going to one of the branch campuses now since the Lansing campus was already full) and we're going to try the long-distance thing.
In some ways I'm disappointed. I was very much ready to give ON my resignation notice and get out of here finally. Detroit isn't out of state but it's at least somewhere new. But I'd really just be running away, I think, because I really feel that Jon and I aren't ready for that step. Or maybe he is, but I'm not. So it looks like I'll be spending my summer lonely and bored in Carrollton... this is the first summer in a long time that I'm not actually looking forward to anything. The nice weather will be a definite plus. I'm already dreading winter; this last one was particularly long and difficult. But I don't want to think about that.
New York was fun. Didn't do much sight-seeing in favor of wandering around and shopping and such, but we did make it to Times Square, Chinatown, Little Italy, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Museum of Natural History, and at least the ferry that goes right by the Statue of Liberty. Spent some time in Central park as well - pictures are on facebook.
Guess I should probably go do something productive now.
