I really do want to come up to Seattle and I plan to next month.

Plus, if you have transportation, you should come down to Portland and we can have adventures here too.

Adjusting in a (somewhat) new place is kind of complicated, as I'm sure you know. I hope things improve. But, in the mean time, we WILL do something spectacular and soon!

Thanks :)

I miss you! Sorry I've been so horrible at keeping in touch; I vow to do better in the months to come.

A lot of areas in Seattle can be really expensive--as in most cities, I think--but there are some cheaper areas, you just have to really dig. I've heard that the U District, Ballard, Maple Leaf and I think Capitol Hill are some of the cheaper areas. I'm not sure though.

We're looking into moving closer into the city when our lease ends this summer, so I'll let you know what we learn from our research. The wages in this area are much higher than they were in arizona. I think that minimum wage is $7.50 or $8, so that should tell you something.

Keep me apprised of your plans. Oh, I hope that you two move here. We could have such fun!
