Nice reunion weekend... Josh came down, and there was a lot of drinking between the boys. Downtown was fun, but all of it just made me realize what I miss about New England in general. Josh and Jon talked a lot about starting their own business, and where the best place to base it... Jon loves the south, but I think he's also realistic. in the fact that I would never spend the rest of my life here. no.
I feel deprived of fun outdoor activities. There's no hiking on this side of the state- the biggest inclines are handicap ramps.
I also desperately need a new car. I loathe the Malibu something fierce. I am also not in a financial place to do this, thanks to credit card debt and the guilt from being a complete leech for 3 months... so we'll see.
I'm in a sort of dumpy mood.
work is work.. I had forgotten how lame most jobs are. I spend much of my time waiting for people to give me something to do. But, it is a paycheck, and I work with really nice people, so its a good job.
I have a great desire to travel, and manifest destiny is pulling me to the west. Mum just got back from San Fran and Monterey, and she said it was lovely. I'd like to just leave for a month or two, and see what I can find where the wind blows me.
But these dreams are dreams, unfortunately... its one thing to make things happen, its another to be realistic about the world, and the fact that one needs a job and a steady income to survive.
alas.
