Two months. Two months since I last posted. I’ve got tons of legitimate reasons like travel, family, work, and the start of football season. Life happens, man. But most importantly—to this blog at least—is the fact that I’m leaving my apartment in San Francisco’s Richmond district.
Not to worry, though! I’m only moving to Burlingame, so Window to the Bay will continue to be a Bay Area-themed blog. In fact, in most ways very little about my life will change. I’ll now be living walking distance from Millbrae BART—which, no joke, may actually shorten my travel time to downtown San Francisco (yes, inner-city busses are that slow). My rent will be nearly identical—though in Burlingame that same money buys me a second-story apartment with multiple windows and an extra 200 sq ft, interior ventilation, and a front door that opens to the outdoors instead of my neighbor’s garage. My shitty apartment isn’t the only thing I’m leaving behind, though. And so, I’d like to take this moment to reflect on those things I’ll most miss about living in the Richmond—as well as the crap I’m happy to leave behind.
