Colorado
I wanted to formally tell everyone who reads this blog some exciting news. I’ve decided my time in NYC has come to an end and I am moving on. Moving on to bigger skies and cleaner air. Have you guessed yet? Here are some more clues…I’m moving to where the buffalo roam, the deer and the antelope play…actually I’m not so sure about that clue. While I was visiting there were some buffalo, but I’m not so sure how far they can roam and I must admit I didn’t see any deer or antelope.
Um, what else can I say…oh hell, I’ll just come right out and tell you…this city girl is moving to Colorado. Whooo! It’s the farthest west I’ll ever have lived.
I’ll be out of Brooklyn in May and then I’m spending the summer in Maryland, living in a cabin along the Chesapeake Bay and working at a camp. A sort of city detox before moving, if you will. haha. Then at the end of August I’ll make the big move to Colorado.
My lovely friends the J and Liz are out there already and have graciously offered to take me in until I get settled. Which hopefully won’t take too long. I am feeling positive about it all.
Yours,
Best Friend

Say goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway
And the different colored doorways you thought would let you in one day
Goodbye to the old bus stop frozen and waiting
The weekend addition has this town over-rated
You walk across the baseball green
The grass has turned to straw
A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
I can’t make you stay
I can’t spend another ten years wishing you would anyway
How the sky turns to fire
Against the telephone wire
And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
Everyday I take a bitter pill
It gets me on my way
For the little aches and pains
The ones I have from day to day
To help me think a little less about the things I miss
To help me not to wonder how I ended up like this
Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty train
With a million other faces I shoot through the city veins
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
You wanted to be free
Lyrics
And somewhere beyond the bitter end is where I wanna be
How the sky turns to fire
Against the telephone wire
And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
You won’t be seeing me again
Goodbye to all the window panes shining in the sun
Like diamonds on a winter day
Goodbye, goodbye to everyone
How the sky turns to fire
Against the telephone wire
It burns the last of the day down
And I’m the last one hanging around waiting
On a train track and the train never comes back
And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
