It started on Halloween

Me and the vampyre, Halloween 2010

I guess I first had the idea around Halloween. I knew I wanted to move back to San Francisco, but I was having trouble defining exactly when that would be. I realised I wanted to go back to this city that had previously been my home from a completely new direction. How many times have I flown east to west from Dublin to the west coast of California in my life? Many times. I knew that this time had to be different, that I wanted to take a different route, a slow meandering route through places I had always wanted to see. So I guess it was when I took that picture of me and the little vampyre, me wearing that venetian mask and she a ruby red wig. It was then I made the decision to go.
