This is a repost from my Myspace blog. It is quite long, so for those of you who like to complain about long posts, I've put it behind a cut. I'd suggest you read it though. This post is more for the Houston scene than about me.

I dunno if I want to come out. The last several times I've been out the scene was so changed and the people just weren't fun anymore. I want to go out and have fun but the drama that is the Houston scene isn't worth it.

What do you mean the drama? Please remember I've basically been gone for 2 years. Is this all that's keeping you from going out? What do you think is the reasons behind the decline over the years? Is it simply the drama or is it something more?

I left the scene 3 years ago. When I started seeing the backbiting between the DJ's. The continuous drama that festered within the scene and from what I hear hasn't changed since I left. Not to mention, I'm a bit straight edge, I don't like drugs. Alchy is fine, drugs put everyone at risk. So when I started seeing more and more use when I was out and in public it made me uncomfortable. Add in the rumors and the trash talking that continued to be part of my experience and it made me not really want to come back.

I've been out once since then and that was to see Debbi.

I appreciate your honesty about this. You're right, the bickering and drama is still around. It seems that my even thinking about maybe starting something new has unlocked Pandora's Box and there has been opposition to me since I made this post on Mysapce.

I feel you on the drug abuse. Personally, I'm clean these days, I've got to much to lose, and it bugs me when I see people doing it, though having had the fortune, whether it be good or bad, of being in a powerful position running a club, I know it's going to be there.

To be honest, this has really shown me that while Houston deserves something new and different, it's not ready for it. Maybe 1 day. But thankyou so much for being honest about this.

Maybe, who knows. I think it will take a major change of thought in the mindset around here. Which frankly, I don't see coming. You want progressive without the crap move to Cali. You want progressive with a victim complex stay here. *grin*

I'd get more into the drama but I don't want to cause drama for you. If you want to know what I'm talking about email me at jett at hal-pc dot org.

You know, drama's for teenagers. I don't need to know it. In reality, drama has no real impact on my life. I know people are going to talk and say this and say that. I don't really care. I've just come to accept the fact that they've not yet grown up.

[ferelwing]

Good, that's pretty much my take on it. It's why I have no real interest in coming back to the scene. If I want drama all I have to do is turn on the news.

I'm an adult and I have no time to waste on it.
