Wow. Yep I'm still here. I still check my friends page regularly and try to keep up with whats going on. I fail quite a bit, however I do put in the effort.
I'm still in St Louis. I've not had nearly as much time to myself as I had originally thought I would, and I've been devoting much more time to work than I would have originally thought. That isn't without its benefits though. My company is thriving, my new club is set up to be the rockstar of the company for 2008-2009, and I have an insanely gifted group of people to work alongside. Not to toot my own horn, but I've assembled a pretty kick ass sales team too.
My career has tons of forward momentum. Enough that I've decided against buying a house down here. Who knows where I might end up in the next year or so, it could be another part of St Louis, it could also very well be on either coast, or somewhere in the middle of the country. Nothing like certainty eh?
If I had it all over to do again I would change very very little. I'd make more time for visits home, I'd certainly make more time to make new friends, but I'd not give up an inch of the ground I've made up with my new career. I will say this being a young person, with boatloads of job security, a great future, and more job/life satisfaction in an economy like this has its benefits.
That being said, I'm going to try to come home to visit for DEMF. I'm also making a promise to myself to start going out regularly again in June. Probably starting with my birthday. If you're still back home, or you've gotten out of Michigan and we were or are friends, I miss you bastards like crazy.
Oh, and its March. The end of March. Guess its that time of year again, I woke up with crazy ass dreams last night. Thats what reminded me what time of year it is. Time to reminisce on all the good times, the bad ones, and the ones I'd rather none of us had dealt with. Much love for anyone else who knows exactly what this means and lived through all of it right along with me.
