Mamagotcha's journal

I've seen a few old LJ friends popping up again on my feed, and they've inspired me to finally update my own LJ. ( Big ol' post behind the cut. )

In general, I've found a lot of things to keep me busy and happy while I'm in Chicago. But while I've found a lot to love about the Midwest and this city, it's not home and it never will be. I know I need to go back to the West Coast, and I trust that the universe will eventually align in such a way so that it will happen. Until then, I do what I can for myself, my family, and my community, and do my best to stay positive and hopeful.
