When my wife told me that she was offered the job that she wanted most, you'd think I'd be really excited about it, but I didn't really know how to react. I dunno why, but I just wasn't that excited about it. Since my wife has accepted the job, I've been thinking about all the different things that will be affected by us moving. I've been somewhat excited about it, but also conflicted because of all of the different changes that this will cause. It will be a big change, and it will be fun, but I'll be leaving everyone I've ever known and the area where I've made all of my memories. I'm excited about moving, but it's just a big change, and for some reason I can't jump up and down about it, it just seems kind of bittersweet right now. It will be a great experience, but so many things will change soon that I can't focus on only the good ones. Anyway, it's just kind of interesting that now that it's here, I'm not as excited and happy about it as I thought I might be, considering how long we've been talking about it and planning on it.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.
