Well friends, frienemies, haters, and devoted readers, today marks what you may call the beginning of the end of Johnny's time in Jersey City. He's having the same real estate agent who sold Johnny and his wife this condo come over and be the one who lists it. Johnny won't even say it's bittersweet to be heading back to Michigan, where the family and friends structure are, it's awful. He never wanted any of this to happen this way; certainly not his wonderful wife passing in February. He'd have been content to stay in Jersey City until it was time for dual retirements down the road one day. But, this thing called life never seems to cooperate in the ways you'd like. So, here we are, on Johnny's birthday, and he's listing his home and isn't that just a little sad.
Unless the place sells frighteningly quickly (which would be both good and horrifying), we'll still have time for a Music Series or three, and some more commentary on where Johnny sees Jersey City heading and he'll also have a nice love note to all the people who have been so wonderful and kind during this last couple months. Make sure to catch that. The Jersey City Desk may not survive but Johnny will always be on Twitter as long as there is Twitter to be on.
