Moving Out Redux

    Everything fell into place much better than expected.  Last night my friend Tim and I signed a year lease on a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment out in Beaverton.  Our building is probably no more than 100 meters to a Max station.  It comes with a dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer in the unit.  $850 a month rent split between two people.  Not bad if you ask me.

    I've been gone before. Three tours, a year at the dorms in Western oregon University, this past summer subletting for Jamey.  This time is different however.  I signed a year lease.  I am moving out of my parents for good.  It terrifies me.  I have lived at home on the same plot of land for my whole life.  I am just use to it.  Mom told me that after I first mentioned about seriously looking at an apartment, Dad was sitting on their bed and said "I don't want him to go."  Dad suffered the worst when I first left to Western.  Just the look on his face every time I talk about it, and the things Mom says...

    I can't help but feel incredibly guilty.
