It’s the eve of moving day.
Tomorrow, we will pull out of Hermosa Beach and head toward the Rockies with two U-Hauls, 5 adults (including my ex-husband and my boyfriend), 2 kids, a dog, 3 cats, a snake and a turtle.
Thank God I’ve got two years of Burning Man under my belt as practice.
I’m quite surprised about how shaken up I am by this whole move. Although everyone I talk to says it’s totally normal and I know it is, I’m still surprised.

Why You Won’t See Me On Nancy Grace Again
Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009
A couple years ago, I got caught up in this idea of fame and for a little while, it sort of took over my life. I told myself it was about making a difference and having an impact in the world, but then I read this article that says fame is really about the need to fit in and belong and I could clearly see my real motivation.
I’ve never fit in.
I can remember all the way back to Kindergarten wondering why the other little girls didn’t like me? Why I couldn’t seem to get along with the other kids.

That Hardship Just May Be the Blessing of Your Life
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009
You know how it is when you see someone every day and they look the same to you from one day to the next, but then you are apart for a week and suddenly the next time you see them, you notice they’ve grown or aged or lost weight or gained weight?
We are a lot like that with ourselves. It’s hard to tell from one day or month or year to the next how much progress we are making. And most of us are so focused on how far we have to go that we completely lose sight of how far we’ve come.
