A hulking box of boxes is parked in the middle of our living room. A label on it says it weighs 75 pounds. The UPS guy didn't even unload it from his truck before knocking on our door yesterday. He was afraid we might not be home and he would have to lug the beast back down the stairs.
Alas, here it sits. The undeniable.
We're moving back to the Heartland. City living is just too pricey for an out-of-work journalist, a struggling screenwriter and their three young children. So we're packing up, and we'll greet the New Year in another place.
The crazy thing is, the Internet is partly responsible for the demise of the life we've known, yet it also provides our best hope for keeping the dream alive.
Strange times, these.
