Working out all our problems there in the back of our house...
Well I had a week off of work last week, well technically two weeks ago. I went to Atlantic City and then went home. Recently my mum was diagnosed with a malignant polyp on her colon and had to have it removed. The cancer had not spread into her body but she now has to undergo radiation therapy. I wanted to just take a quick trip home to see her and make sure she was okay.
While I was at home I was in Toronto a couple of times. One night with my friends, Tammy, Inti and Vanja. The other I spent with my dad and my brothers watching Toronto FC. It was great and I had a long talk with my friend Inti until 2am about where my life was and how I was incredibly unhappy where I was.
Needless to say when I got back to New Jersey I had a long talk with Jared about some things in my life I'm not happy with. I'm not happy with what I'm doing or where we live. In fact, I absolutely hate New Jersey. As a visitor, I liked New Jersey. As a resident, it's an incredibly daunting place to live in and I am not willing to live here and sacrifice myself for it.
We have to move any ways, we just didn't know we'd be moving out of state. I'd like to move to Lancaster, PA. It's got great countryside and a cute little downtown. It's cheap. The taxes are low. I'm searching for a place I can walk downtown in, get my coffee in and read a paper. I'm searching for a place with people being busy, even if they are tourists. I'm not ready for complete suburbia yet. I'm not ready to be isolated. I have no mini-van in my immediate future.
Also, I quit my job. I gave notice at my job on Tuesday. Many reasons can be tallied for my quitting, but most of all there is no job for me any more. I thought I'd stick around until we moved but certain circumstances pushed me towards walking out. Hopefully a new job is in my future. I have something in the works.
Till next time,...
