Starting over

• Got the new job
• Got engaged
• Moved

So first thing’s first.  Harrison (the friend turned more than friend) and I did start dating and got engaged just after Christmas.  Yes, I’m sure it seems fast for some people.  But here’s the thing to know.  Harrison and I have known each other for 7 years already.  We really already knew everything about each other and had seen each other go through several relationships.  Most of the last several months were getting to know each other *ahem* more intimately and behind the scenes, finding out how we interact after a lot of one on one time without all our friends around.

The same night he asked me to marry him, I got a call back and was offered a new job with the police as a dispatcher.  I’ve started the job and things are going ok.  I like it most of the time.  Occasionally I really dislike it but that’s mostly a co-worker of mine that we just rub each other the wrong way no matter what happens.

Harrison and I moved in together not long after the engagement.  We have a nice little apartment just outside the city proper.  However we are currently starting the search for a house.  We pay a lot for rent being near the city and we know there are houses out on the market where with the right mortgage we can pay half of what we pay in rent.  The search has just started and we just moved into the apartment so there is plenty of time before we will move again.  Ok, maybe not tons of time, a little over 8 months but we’re ok with staying here for another year too.  We like our apartment and our complex.

I’m going to really try now to write more since now I have a bit more time and I’m not depressed and all that other stuff.  We’ll see how it goes but I’m going to try.  I miss writing, I miss sharing my thoughts, and I miss my OD friends.
