Into The Universe


For the past couple of years we have been talking about moving to LA. At first grudgingly but recently my ears have perked up at the idea of living there. Maybe it's been the reading of Lillian Hellman's biography (I understand the LA of the 30s will not be anything like modern day) or blog-friending some amazing folks but I really want the move to happen this year. Of course, with the wedding expenses all of our savings will be gone and we'll have to start fresh in July. So I'm putting it out there - I want to find a cute house and an incredible job that I can't wait to go to every morning in the Los Angeles area (if anyone can help in either of these areas I would GREATLY appreciate it ;)).
Thank you so much for all the supportive comments! We probably wouldn't move until end of 2010 / beginning of 2011 BUT when we do here are the specifics:

House: Just something simple and cute and able to handle a boy, a girl, a fat cat and a kooky boxweiler. Preferably with a patch of grass...in a neighborhood that isn't scary. I would like to be able to walk to fun places.

Job: I work in the non-profit arts sector now but I would like to move into a more creative industry (event planning, etc. etc.). I'm tres organized.

  4. Let's talk. LA isn't an obvious or easy city to love, in the way SF or NYC is, but it's earned my love in subtle and beautiful ways that continue to unfold. Let me know what you're looking for job-wise and house-wise, and I would love to help!
