Looking back, looking forward

For me, much of the past year revolved around two events. One is Thom’s and my move to California in June. At first it was a vague, distant plan, and then, on the heels of our trip to London, things started to fall into place, and we moved to my hometown to start a new chapter in our life together. And also in 2006, yet another chapter ended with my father’s sudden death in July. I’m thankful that we had been here to spend time with him and afterwards to help my family. It’s been a life-changing year to say the least.

We went through a lot in that year of highs and lows, and perhaps that segues nicely into a bit of forward-looking news that we’ve been sitting on for a while: Thom and I, having been together for three and a half years now, have decided to register as domestic partners here in California sometime in the new year. Stay tuned!

Happy new year, and I wish everyone all the best in 2007.
