On Not Looking Back
When I moved from Fresno to the bay area I left behind a few people that I adore but I've never regretted leaving the central valley.
I suspect that I am going to look back and see leaving Oakland as one of the best choices I've ever made.
I will miss a couple of special places and some dear people, but I don't think I am going to miss Oakland or even the surrounding communities.
I am so delighted about the changes in my life!

Szechuan For One: First Official Takeout
After a brief trip up to sort and unpack some things I realized I was hungry so I drove around until I discovered a Chinese restaurant that looked busy. I stuck my nose in and it smelled good so it's my first official take out in the new hometown.
I mean spicy peanut butter won ton? Not passing that up!
While I'm waiting for my food I notice:
There's a giant lucky cat and a big fat Buddha on the counter. The Buddha has a pyramid of grapefruits so fat and round that they come all the way up to his big Buddha belly. The plates of food are huge and the wait staff is tiny. Little short people zipping around with mass quantities of steaming, delicious smelling food! It's mighty impressive to watch. Chinese food on a Texan scale of BIG!
VERDICT: Spicy Peanut Butter Won Ton is made of YUM!
