Because as we grow up the others around us are growing up too. And sometimes that means people move away.

A former student of mine, who I told would be able to find a job after she graduated, is moving to DC as we speak. At least I have one more reason to visit, one more person in my small army of DC friends.

Jack from book club is moving to Washington soon. I can't recall ever being at book club without Jack at least maybe being there. It's weird to think that I've been going to book club for at least six years. Gawd...that's a long time. The best part is that Jack's new stomping ground is only about an hour from my aunt's place in Washington. In an area where I would LOVE to take a few years and just get away from the hustle & bustle of city life. But of course, I'm addicted to the hustle & bustle. ha!

Thanks for everything, Jack. Take care and send lots of postcards.
