Official WA Resident

It's official: I am no longer a resident of California. I now officially reside, vote, and pay taxes in the state of Washington.

Washington: the home of recycle and compost Nazi's, the home of overcast and drizzle, the home of Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, Soundgarden, Sir Mix-a-Lot, Rainn Wilson, Bill Gates, and Starbucks.

After getting my license and new plates this weekend, I feel a sense of relief (because I've been putting it off for so long...and I think that's illegal), and a sense of peace. It's funny how simply admitting something outloud can bring peace to a situation, and making a decision (even if you have doubts that it's the right one) can relief so much pressure.

Welcome home, Ange!

I've heard that people driving around with California license plates are not too well liked up there... so with your new plates you will be able to drive around less noticeably...
don't forget to check those wiper blades often...
we wish you the best!
