We've Got to Get Out of This Place
If it's the last thing we ever do
I'm so sick of people constantly trying to tell me that I can't do something or that I'm incapable or just assuming that I haven't thought everything through. My dad just now very sternly told me that I shouldn't buy a house in Dearborn because I might get a job somewhere else. I told him that's why I'm looking for jobs in Dearborn and he told me that I'm looking a house for all the wrong reasons and if I really wanted a house, he'd sell me his in Canton. I don't want to live in Canton.
I want to live in Dearborn, yes, because it's where Dave is, but I also work there still and have friends in the area. My goal in life is to settle down and be happy, which I think would be possible in Dearborn. My other goal is to write books and take pictures, which are professions that can be done anywhere, so why not Dearborn? I just want to be closer to my boyfriend and closer to my current job. I'm tired of the hour drive round trip every fucking day.
I just don't see where it comes off that I'm looking for a house for the wrong reasons and why I shouldn't be looking when I have one part-time job and am looking for a second. I'm probably going to have part-time jobs for the rest of my life. Nobody's hiring full time anymore!
And it's not like the houses I've found are terribly expensive. They're all under $75,000. That's not so bad.
I wish people could just respect my fucking wishes and stop telling me I can't do this. I want to get the hell out of here now.
