And all of a sudden....

Ninny returns.

Hello dear friends. Please do not begrudge me my absence. Years have passed. Yes years! Or at least, year and some change, since I last wrote an entrance on the Ninny spot. SO much has changed since then. Rest assured the wombat cricket club is still just fine, though morning the loss of one of the food sundry members (apparently someone got too hungry and couldn't resist, I'm not naming names.....Frenchy!). Ah but the changes to Ninny's life. So many. So large. Where to start?

How about the beginning? No? Too obvious eh? Alright I'll start wherever sounds right then. And that would be on the patio at the Faultline Bar in Los Angeles, CA. Ninny lived near this bar at this time. It was one semi-common warm evening by the fire pit. Our Ninny was standing and chatting with Danger(space)kitty, discussing the world and their places in it. Certainly there was beer and cigarettes involved. As our heroes discussed the world it came into existence a plan. A plot, ploy, diversion, what have you. It was, it must be said, initially posited by Mr Danger(space)kitty, that perhaps it would be advisable, to leave Los Angeles. Now those of you who have read other tails of Ninny know, that he lost his mother roughly two years ago. Until the loss of the matriarch there was an unspoken requirement that Ninny stay put in southern California. However, at the time of this conversation, Ninny's beloved mother was no longer around. So Ninny put the idea in the head of Charley. Charley put the query to the ear of his boss, and next thing you know, Charley and Ninny were packing their belongings, bidding a fond farewell to friends and family, and moving to San Francisco.

Upon arrival, Ninny spent some time in awe of the new metropolis he called home. He walked and wandered. He stretched is eyes, his legs, and his mind. Soon Ninny found himself in the company of wondrous people with whom he felt inadequate, but inspired. Within a few months of his migration Ninny was joined by none other than Ms. Drella Jones, whom, after an unpleasant attempt at moving to New York, decided that San Francisco was a better option (a decision that Ninny most thoroughly agrees with). Ninny and Drella found themselves a lovely two bedroom apartment in the city and settled into new lives and new adventures. Soon though Ninny found himself in a depression. It seems that after Ninny had adjusted to life in San Francisco he also found himself a bit lonely.

The trials and tribulations of Ninny's new life will continue with a follow up piece soon.
