change of address

since the initial terror of moving has worn away it's become clear that london is, in fact, a funny city. one of the funniest truly.
as i said to j last night: it's huge and it's loud and it's full. and all of these things contribute to the fact that it is ever, achingly new.
it changes almost daily, and would take years to learn by heart. all of london walks around with their trusty a-z, and you'd be crazy not to.

so i'm awe-struck and eager and there's a change, ever so perceptible, in the way that i think about the city now. it's novel, and the second it stops being so, i'll leave it behind.
