So today I returned back to my apartment in Palo Alto. I am currently rotating at Stanford Hospital at their Rehab Ward. I'll be in Cali for the next 8-10 weeks.
I visited one of my closest friends on Friday. Him and I still keep in contact via telephone. So seeing him in person was no big deal. We fell into our friendship zone as easily as we leave it. But being in Chicago for the last 3 years has made me forget a lot of the Bay Area. I really felt confused driving around. I got lost finding his place. When I did live in the Bay Area, I never really had a chance to explore every area. So I never felt like I new my home. I move so much, that I never settle in anywhere.
Now I live in Palo Alto, and I feel so lost. In four weeks, I'll be in Sacramento, and I'll have to get used to that as well.
Being a nomad has it's advantages. I keep meeting new people and seeing very cool places. But at the same time the time I spend in one place is too short. I never feel like I can relax comfortably. I'm always on the move.
Living the fast life is not as glamorous as I thought. It's fun at the moment, but when I'm driving back to my place at the end of the night, I feel so lonely. Anyway, I'll eventually find my home soon.

Dude, my first movie was out in 1999, but you don't want to watch it. You'd be better off checking out the latest movie I was in, where I play a private detective in the late 1940s. It's called Exhumed, and you can find it here.

Thanks, Bettina. I love the title.
