I Don't Pray, I Move My Feet

[irishrosedkm]

I wish I could relax. I wish I knew how. People who have known me for years would call me laid back, cool-headed, accepting...but my mom is not wrong when she calls me tightly wound and high strung. I'm always going. Always looking for what is next, never satisfied with what I have now. I have a need, and emptiness that needs to be filled. A

Some of us just have that need to move around, that urge to be nomadic. The real question is do you enjoy the moving around?

Moving sucks. Learning new places can be...interesting. But it's hard and it just makes me want to throw everything I own away, haha.

I like making places my own, but not all that time and I want to have room for my stuff. I'm not so interested in learning a new place though. I moved to Houston 3 years ago and still wish I were back where I grew up.

I completely get wanting to toss everything rather than move it though. ;)

Where did you grow up. I've been to Houston a bunch of times for work and I can't say it's a place I've grown to love.

Irving, it's a city between Dallas and Forth Worth. Same state but way different feel and atmosphere.

I think that's what I like about Texas. Such different places and people in one state. Austin vs Lubbeck vs El Paso Vs Dallas and so on.

Oh I know! It's fairly wonderful to have such diversity, except when I get turned down for yet another job for not speaking Spanish. *sigh* Though it's interesting how various places so close to each other can feel so different.
