silly interlude re Waiting for Veronica

 

Good Question:

"What the hell does Veronica have to do with this blog?" 

The Answer:

A little bit, per my sense of things. (And, my blog, my ridiculous indulgence.)

This post will disappear tomorrow so take a picture, V.

WITH JACKIE AND CHLOE

JACKIE: Have you been to Tucson?

CHLOE: Two airport layovers. You?

JACKIE: I'm there a few times a year to see a friend. 

CHLOE: Where did you go to school?

JACKIE: U N M undergrad, University of Washington for my Masters.

CHLOE: Albuquerque and Seattle.

JACKIE: Yep. 

CHLOE: Why Washington?

JACKIE: Great program and my ex-husband. How much a factor is location? 

CHLOE: It matters. 

JACKIE: Weather?

CHLOE: Weather, culture, basic vibe. It isn't like cold and snow are a deal-killer. I liked Boulder and they have a pre-vet program. But I'm not even close to sure about that. We'll see. Not a big rush.

JACKIE: And nice to have options.

CHLOE: For sure. 

JACKIE: Cal Poly in the running?

CHLOE: No. I do know I don't want to stay home.   My mom wouldn't mind and my grandparents would be happy if I did but I need change. Which they understand and officially encourage. 

JACKIE: Where did your grandparents go to school?

CHLOE: Gramps grew up in Indiana and went to I U for undergrad. Grams grew up in Virginia, undergrad at U V. They met in law school at Berkeley. Maybe later I could ask you a few questions about U W and Seattle.

JACKIE: Of course. That's on the radar?

CHLOE:  Yeah. 

JACKIE: Give me your email and I'll write up a report.

CHLOE: Cool. Thanks.

JACKIE: My pleasure. It rains a little.

CHLOE: So I've heard.
