This is Where I am Now, But Why?

I decided, kind of spur of the moment, that I wanted to follow her back to Germany (please note, she wanted me to do this too). I'll call her 'V' for the purposes of this blog (most of you all know what her name is anyway.. but internet anonymity, you know?

Anyway, at this same time I was applying to present at a counseling conference in, coincidentally, Germany. And this all coincided nicely with me becoming rather sick of grad school and feeling like I needed a break. So I went to Germany.



And I'll be here for about 3 more months, back in time to start my school back up in the Spring.

Unless of course Sarah Palin somehow becomes president or vice president. That woman is a monster.
