Hillside

Route 4 to 95. Take the first exit on the right and pass through Castro Valley before getting on 5. 4. 

I just moved to this city and am finding it more difficult to read his handwritten directions on the back of his receipt and driving at dusk than I ever did with a grande caramel macchiato in my left hand, radio on high, and driving at dawn.  That's how you do in Chicago.

We agreed last month that I'd move here with him. I told him I'd only come if he got me that corner lamp I wanted from Ikea. We went while visiting his brother in LA and I pointed to it, "For our house. I'd like it for the bathroom corner." He called two weeks ago and said he bought it - faxed me a copy of it to my job with an attached itinerary for a one way flight.
