I havent updated in awhile because

 I decided I was cheating myself out of real conversations with you people that I'd really like to have

The last month has been one of the most fun of my life.  Ive finally made a ton of friends, Im going out and doing cool things, I'm got a little more money than I thought, etc etc.  And now I'm leaving.  Yep...goodbye to it all, never to be seen again.  That's always the way it works though, isnt it?  It's probably part of that, actually.  You push yourself to do more stuff because you know you're leaving soon.  Doesnt stop me from being sad.  Not that I dont miss America and dont miss all my old friends and CHRISTALMIGHTY miss English, but it feels like there are so many good times left to have here that Im missing out on.

The thing is though, I'm never satisfied.  I can always find something to be unhappy or dissatisfied about, and honestly, I like it that way.  It keeps me sharp; keeps my mind on my business.  I fully intend to be one of those guys they have to take the keys to the office away from at age 80 because he always wants to do one more project before he retires.

I may revisit all of this later as it isnt coming out right at the moment.

5 months ago I asked all of you to keep me sane as I said goodbye to all of my friends.  In 5 days I'm going to make the exact same request to you all over again.
