And he said, you are gone.

And I liked it.

I never wanted to be married to you.

So yeah.

So it didn't work out.

So, yeah.

But divorce was still really hard for me.

I mean, I thought I was going to be with him for the rest of my life.

So I remember deciding to buy a nice purple climbing rope from REI.

And I was...

going to logistically figure out, I was going to go on a walk with Gina, and logistically I was going to figure out which tree to hang myself on.

So I finally found a tree, and then Gina found the stick.

And usually that means that you got to stop whatever you're doing because you got to throw the stick.

So I threw the stick and she came back to me and she had the biggest smile and enthusiastically wagging tail.

And that moment I knew that I had to take care of her and she was going to take care of me.

So the army decided to move me across the country to Washington state.

And I told Adam that I wanted to take Gina with me because she was my best friend during this really dark time.

He told me he couldn't say no to me.

So we moved here.

Washington state is, there's something so transformative about living here.
