Migration Thoughts

I have to go back to Burbank one of these days.

It's perfectly comfortable there, though the virus rates are high in CA, and they've said it's so hot that electrical usage is off the charts and they're going to do rolling blackouts, like they did in Kampala when I lived there in 2005.

Meanwhile, the heat here broke and the weather is currently ideal.

My little studio in the bottom of my house has mini-everything. It's like living in an RV, down to sitting outside on the patio enjoying the breeze while eating and swatting mosquitos. I even have wildlife.

And the takeout food nearby is vastly superior to what's mostly local chains in Burbank. Plus I have a pool a few blocks away, plenty of Citibikes, and did I mention a bunch of friends to socially distance drink coffee with?

But I have a temporary bunch more responsibility at work. so I feel like I should be in the right time zone for availability, so I am probably going back. A bit concerned about the rolling blackouts though.

I'm going to end up sleeping on the balcony with the radishes, aren't I?
