Did you miss me, cause I missed you?!
No, I've not abandoned my journey, just been over run (or run over, take your pick on the verbiage) with a multi-state move. Somehow I've managed to become a resident of the Garden State, although not as surprising as the idiotic time I ended up living in Houston, TX. The east coast fashion is getting to me and I may actually buy skinny jeans or pants, despite not being skinny myself.
Happy to say, despite some major stumbles, I have landed for the time being. Living situation isn't perfect, but its safe, with a roof over my head and no roaches or frat boys that I've seen. Commute is terrible, but work is already night and day different in all the ways I had hoped for. That was the point of this move, better work life, career goals, being treated like I have a brain...
Already looking for a place downtown, and by some dumb luck I only need to give proper notice to break my current lease. Looking at areas with a lot of activity, feeling the need to break myself out of my isolation that was STL. I can do that anywhere, be a hermit anytime, but really its time to break all those behaviors.
Not sure financials will allow me to keep up the crossfit, but I've been trying to find shooting and archery lessons that I can save for.
Adaptability is key, right? When one route doesn't work, find or create another! More posts to come, I promise....unless some spray tanned walkers catch up to me!!!
I'm glad you landed on some solid ground. Sounds like quite a journey. It does sadden me that you couldn't find what you needed in STL.
ReplyDeleteI never got skinny jeans, maybe it's my advance age, they just don't look comfortable. My advice is to run. Run far. Run fast. Skinny jeans may not be the best "run for your life" attire if you are ever cornered by the spray tanned walkers.
Hardly advanced age Chris!! Men shouldn't wear skinny jeans.period. I did cave and will try a pair, but its debatable if I should wear them!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have stayed in STL, but this is already way better in terms of work.
