Everyone knows how much I want to get out of my hometown... at this point I'd settle for just getting out of my parent's place, even if it did mean hanging around Meriden a little longer. When I was just out of college, my ideal spot was NYC, and I was convinced that I'd be there within a few years. Well, the job market sucks, my degree sucks, and I'm poor, to put it all out there, quite bluntly. So I haven't gotten there.
Since graduating, I've actually found more of a liking to the Boston area, surprisingly enough (although their taste in baseball teams IS questionable
I kid I kid). I think I would enjoy living somewhere outside of Boston but still close enough to grab the T into town if I needed to. It has been seriously tempting, since a few of my best friends live/work there, my best friend from childhood included, and she's said she knows some head hunters who would have a field day with getting me a job there.
The main thing keeping me here: money. Money and loans. Between my student loans, vehicle loans and insurance, and just general bills, I'm barely able to save anything, and thats with no rent.
I'm also struggling a little bit with another big part of my life: my boyfriend. He doesnt want a long-distance relationship... and he also doesnt want to move anywhere when he's not sure he can get a job (worried about me supporting him for a length of time, for fear of the strain it could put on the relationship). We've discussed it in the past, so once I have a bit more money saved up, it might be time to discuss it again.
How ya doing, buddy?
