I'm doing it. I can't believe I'm doing this.

I'm not moving to Sowal...but Socal.

On Tuesday my old boss approached me with an offer to come out to LA and work on a few special projects with her. The money was right- for the first time EVER and this is just an opportunity I can't turn down. This is going to be so much more my thing.

I am committing myself until the end of December and then we are going to evaluate whether I want to say in LA or move to NY and work from the NY office (where I really started my career)...or move back to NY and explore other opportunities.

I'm really pumped about this. I'm nervous about how my friends here are going to react, but I'm positioning it as a temporary thing. Who knows...I could fall in love with the place.

Just to confirm....I WILL be on hand for the Auburn/LS-who game and NYE. Those are 2 things we discussed right off. ;-)
Stay tuned...this is all going to go down in early August!

:cool: Nice. I loved Los Angeles. Visited California for two weeks when I was just out of high school, many years ago. LA, Oakland, San Francisco, Marina Del Ray, Malibu, Anaheim including Disneyland. Had a blast. Now you will really be rubbing elbows with some celebrities. Congrats!

WOW!!!
LA will blow NYC right off the map for you. You're a Socal girl all the way, imo. I don't believe you'll ever go back. Go and have the time of your life! :clap_1:
