The rumors you are hearing are true.
Dane and I are moving to San Francisco.
Some of you already know about this via the Twitter and some emails and, I don’t know, the carrier pigeons I had my Seneschal send out last week.
Sorry. In my grief over the puddy we’ve been overdosing on The Tudors. It comforts me. All that velvet and leather and mother of pearl and boots and the political, courtly intrigue! It’s exactly how I imagine San Francisco to be. I’m right, right? With the velvet, etc?
So yes, we are moving to San Francisco in less than one month and I am FREAKING OUT. We had to break our lease here (expensive) and I don’t know if you know, but the rents in SF are not like the cute little ones we have here in Portland. Instead of being filled with magical bunnies and puppies and kittens, the rents in SF are made out of whatever the opposite of that is. Cholera, maybe.
And don’t give me any of that you could move to Oakland and commute into the city business. I know there are parts of Oakland that are great. Not for me. If I’m moving to San Francisco, I’M MOVING TO GODDAMN FOGGY DIRTY SAN FRANCISCO.
I want to ride a cable car (a real one and not one of these Fisher Price trains we have here), and eat rice a roni, and get mugged and die in an earthquake. I WANT TO HAVE IT ALL.
Also, I’m going on anti-depressants. Whee! And I have high blood pressure. WHEE-ER!
It really, truly seems like the universe is compelling me to make MORE serious life changes and do LESS relaxing. Don’t you agree?

yes yes yes! NOW YOU WILL BE MY FRIEND!!! WHA HA HAH HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!
I’ll go to San Francisco for you baby. Oh we are going to have so much fun…
YES! Yay!!!!
Wah! Well, this isn’t fair at all. I am just getting to know your lovely self and now San Francisco has to get all selfish and steal you away. Damn you San Francisco and your Golden Bridge!
Portland’s loss is SF’s gain…but boo-hoo anyway.
Will we still receive regular faceofthecookie updates from the Bay Area? Your frookies will miss you, Kiala!
but but but we were about to be NEIGHBORS. good luck getting everything in order, there must be lots of shiny pretty things waiting for you to make you leave portland. good luck good luck good luck!!
You’re getting closer… It’s just a matter of time now.
WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT YOU!?
This is sad – but I’m so happy for you.
When will we have an intern/boss lady reunion so we can drink and cry and laugh and eat food? Miss you.
I hear SF has a famous windy hill or something. That should be entertaining for a couple minutes.
are you taking the blog with you???
Oh, I know this is a serious life change and all, but SF is an awesome city. It’s got awesome food, and excellent music and art, and lots of fun people doing insane things. Really, you can get high in SF off the architecture alone. You’ll love it!
Oh I love The Tudors too! That Jonathan Rhys Meyers is F-i-n-e FINE.
he can behead me anytime if he’d like…
And I just want you to know that San Francisco is still not Rhode Island so I do not approve of this move.
Why is no one commenting on my loss in this matter? Kiala is leaving MEEEEEEEEEE.
Andie, you’ll take good care of her, right?
DAMN YOU DANE, AND YOUR “CAREER.” WITH “COMPUTERS.”
yes, i will take the best possible, alcohalic stupor care I have in my command. I will let her pet my kitties and I’ll have dane and Kiala over for dinner and we can get so drunk they can sleep on the spare bed. Then I’ll make them breakfast. We’ll sing at the Alley and she’ll fall in love with Oakland (CAUSE OAKLAND KICKS F_ING SF”S ASS) and then we’ll go to the farmer’s market and watch the kids play in the fountain with our heavy sunglasses on.
it will be grand.
I am a blog lurker but I get to come of out of lurkdom to say yay about your move b/c I live in San Francisco. Now I can lurk from the same city as you. It won’t be as creepy as it sounds. There’s not a lot of Taco Bell in SF, so get your fill in while you can. And have a blog reader party when you get here!
I hate all of you San Franciscans. SCREW YOUR STUPID CITY AND EVERYONE WHO HAS EVERY LIVED THERE. Wait…
I think I’m in the anger stage of the mourning process.
get in some peaceful bike riding before you leave the pdx.
Don’t listen to Charley! If you can hack it in SanFran, then don’t downgrade and move to Los Angeles. trust meeeee
