Why am I living in London: I am on this here island because in Spring of 2005 my job sent me to London to assist in the running of the UK version of my Department. trust me. it sounds much more prestigious than it actually is. In the first week here, I met a boy and shortly after we decided that we wanted to keep hanging out. Six months later, I had sold my car, given away my cats, moved out of my rent controlled Hollywood apartment, got married, shipped my things, got on a plane and stumbled into the next chapter of my life as an expat.
