Just to give folks a heads up I'll be going back to Seattle in the spring, so roughly 10 weeks from now, give or take a few weeks.
The main reason I came back from Seattle was to get myself out of an anti-social streak I have been in for the last few months (though it has been getting worse over the last few years) and needed to kind of pull back from life and reflect with what I had been doing, where I was and where I was going in life. After coming back from my move to LA and then Seattle I realized that MN really has nothing to offer someone who is looking for more then just a relationship, marriage or a bar to drink in every night. With the loss of 1/2 of the year to snow, 3/4 of the summer to spring there is really very little time life for entertainment, and when there is time for the entertainment there never seems to be anything to do (or anyone to do anything with).
I have also noticed that MN (or my past in MN) really brings out the worst in me. Being out in cloud town I don't have to worry about all the b.s. that happens or has happend in mpls, but when ever I'm there or talking to people from there it just brings out the worst in me.
When I came back to MN I was really rushing towards the idea of buying a house, trying to find a girlfriend and to finally close my eyes to the world around me and be content with doing nothing with my life and getting very little enjoyment from anything in the outside world. But while being in cloud I have realized that I'm still not ready to take the step needed to just lay down and die mentally and try to pretend like the world has destroyed me and anything good.
Will Seattle be any better? It might. I had a blast while I was out there and had so many possibilities available to me that I didn't take advantage of or enjoy. This was mainly due to just a bad 6 months of events and negativity that I just wouldn't let go of. I all ready have many great friends out there; who granted have very busy lives and little time but that just means I'll have to try extra hard to find some new great people.
So while I am here in MN I will be trying to meet up with everyone at least a few more times. I know there is 0% chance of anyone in MN coming to visit me in cloud town which I find amusing in so many ways; but I will try get get some weekend time with everyone. I know not everyone can hang out on weekends (boda we will do a thursday or Monday) and it is becoming increasingly more difficult for me to want to even go to mpls; the last few times I have gone there I couldn't wait to leave. But we will get together, eat food, drink, and have a bit of fun before I am gone for good.
