We received the news last night: our application was accepted, and we’re moving [for me, returning] to Brooklyn. I’m giddy.

And the thing I’m possibly most excited about: my own desk will be allowed to come back out from storage, because we’ll finally have room for it (knock on wood).
I love a fresh start.
