Watching an old rerun of Sex and The City the other night (my other way of relaxing inbetween packing), Adam had a really pretty profound thought. Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker for those who are not loyal fanatics fans) was typing away on her Mac.
"It’s funny…today, she would have been blogging there."
Yeah, he’s right. Seemingly everyone’s jumped on the bandwagon and the term blog has certainly become an accepted and even welcomed form of mediation. Especially in that editorially journalistic tone. I even heard on the radio that The Edge has launched their own "WTF Blog".
How quickly things change. What seemed so current is now passe. Mind boggling, but fascinating to watch and contemplate.

So, I’ve been trying to figure out how to work Debanter into the next few crazy weeks. Many people we’ve told, not everyone knows however…so this could be news to you. At the end of April, we’re packing up and heading south (and west) to Los Angeles. Things are moving quickly, and in between finishing school, packing, finding a place to live, and getting a little work done, I’d like to blog about something.
So, I guess it will be about the move.
I suppose this could go many ways, but what I’m hoping is that the things I learn along the way will help others who maybe are thinking about making the same sort of big change in their life. Moving is a big deal (well, that statement actually lies on a continuum, depending on yoru experience with the whole concept/process). An even bigger deal is moving internationally. And with pets. In a uHaul.
Yeah, I thikn there might be some blog entries somewhere in there…
Although I consider Toronto to be my home, I am originally from the U.S., so moving down there is less of a hassle for me. Adam, on the other hand has a few trials/hoops he has to complete before he wil be able to legally enter and work. Thus, his job in the next four weeks is to make himself border-ready. Me, well, I’ll be completing my degree (one class done today!) and getting the actual moving of stuff and pets prepared.
As we learn this stuff along the way, I’m hoping that this little segment in my blog’s history becomes something that Adam and I can look back on fondly. Either that or we’ll delete this section entirely (metephorically, of course) from our minds. We’ll see.
In any case, this will be a nice spot to relax and reflect as we work our way toward the biggest adventure our lives, relationship and careers have taken. Should be interesting, to say the least.
