Ash Wednesday! Pen Pals

I have a friend in California, he sends me postcards. 
A super funny guy, and I can tell was never a lifeguard. 
There are all kinds of places I still want to see. 
But for now I have to settle for PA, crackers, and brie. 

I am going out there, out west I mean. 
I am SO tired of snow, and the East Coast Scene. 
So off to Cali, I will eventually go. 
Time for something new, time to grow. 

Surfing, and hiking sound like just the thing. 
Change my name officially, get another nose ring? 
All sorts of opportunities out in the west. 
Something different, a change in scenery, a whole new quest. 


It's going to happen, eventually. 
Gonna cost an arm and a leg to relocate, consequently. 
California, yes I am dying to go back to you. 
The only things I'll miss on the East Coast are the moos.

I have a friend in Cali, I hope he stays. 
Or at least until his lease is up, I think it's May. 
Sending postcards has been super neat. 
 We're both Russians, and love beets! 

Sending me cards from my favorite places. 
Joshua Tree, Sequoia, he covers all the basics. 
West Coast here I come. 
Just have to work a little bit harder and increase that income.
