All I have to say is, "Thank you Southwest Airlines."

I have been rolling this idea around on a daily basis- when am I moving to San Francisco? 

Today Southwest Airlines answered my question.  It was a one-day sale (ending tonight at midnight).  All flights in & out of the Bay area 50% off.  So, not only did I buy my ticket to SF, I also bought a ticket to Louisa & Cary's wedding!!  Yay!!

The biggest question was, "What sort of assurance do I need waiting for me on the other end?"   
Before I left India I thought, "I'll just go to SF and everything will fall into place."  But, then I got home and those scary, "what if" thoughts started flying around.  Today they are quiet.

Now I'm finally following my gut.  
I'm going without a job, house, car, furniture...any of the "safe" feeling things I normally need.  I am applying to a college (to get my MA in Teaching), but don't know if I'm accepted.  I only know one person there, Rinpoche.

I'm repacking my suitcase from India and have my sleeping bag- what more does a girl need?

I must say, writing all this down only makes me that much more confident in my decision.  

This is right.  I can feel it.  And if I'm wrong, then I'll take that, too. :)
