Phyllis finally made the decision, she had been struggling with for over four years. Well, in actuality, she had made the decision four years ago, she just hadn’t made any additional decisions to follow up with it. She finished college and her dream prior to that had been to move to San Francisco to begin her career. For her graduation present her parents paid for a weeklong trip the Bay city, which included extremely nice accommodations at one of San Francisco’s finest hotels. They paid for the trip not only for Phyllis but also her best friend Sarah, which they thought would not only make it more exciting and fun for their daughter but also a bit safer, as she had never before been to the city.

Phyllis had such and amazing time on that trip that she decided to make her dream a reality and move there. However, that same summer her great aunt became sick and Phyllis decided to wait until after she was recovered to make her move. In the meantime she got a job in the local public library that she really liked and also thought it would be great for her resume, as she wanted to pursue a career in library sciences. She also enjoyed the job a great deal so she decided to go ahead and make a one year commitment to it, which seemed like a good idea all the way around.

The following year her younger sister was getting ready to get married and Phyllis was going to be her maid of honor so for obvious reasons it was not a great time to move. Then it seemed like one thing after another prevented, or at least postponed her intentions. And here it was four years later and she was finally sitting in the front room of her very first apartment in San Francisco. Her friend Sarah was with her and helped with the move and the two of them had just finished a walk up and down Market Street to check out the local markets, deli’s and restaurants. They decided they wanted pizza and were getting ready to have their first meal with Phyllis as a San Francisco resident. They showered and headed out again for some great food at Pizzeria Delfina. It would become one of Phyllis’ favorite places.
