Monday thoughts

This weekend came and went. I finally bounced out of the depression/annoyance created by Not Ms. Right/budget-related cutbacks and I made some progress on getting out of my creative blackhole of depressing thoughts.

I chose to lose some battles at the expense of my dreams but that’s ok. Without rain, you can’t enjoy the sunshine.

Oh well. The other random thought that’s been flying around in my little head is the idea of where I’m going next. It seems really strange to people that I’m actually considering leaving. Its all fine and well to joke about my final graduation date, but at the same time, I don’t understand why its so hard to believe. I am also deep in thought about how far I want to go. How much of a connection do I want to keep? What brought this on you ask? I spoke to Casey whom is a friend that recently moved to Atlanta for a better job, he explained he has made great progess in life. He is a team lead at the dealership, he also has a new girlfriend whom according to him is both professional and not as ... high maintence as his last. He was telling me that in April he will be looking to buy a house - his first. Why is this important? Well his advice to me is this: get out of Pittsburgh. The local economy sucks! And the only women you will find are either divourced old farts with three or more kids looking for a new meal ticket or 30-something-year-old stuck with a 20-something-year-old attitude. So that makes me so regretful that when I had a opportunity in Miami I pissed it away!

Do these questions keep me awake at night?
Nah.

They distract me during the daytime when I want to do other things.
I have faith that the universe will throw me a safety net though. I hope. It will work out.
