i find myself beginning to feel trapped where i am these days.. and more and more find myself drawn to explore. i have spent many years of my life living as a hermit.. rarely leaving my house, if my room at all.. and while that has given me the oppurtunity to get to know many cool people in places other then my own via the internet.. i now find myself drawn to actually get out and see the world. i'd like to apologise to the friends i've made here as i haven't ben around much of late to keep up with the goings ons. i miss the many long talks into the wee hours. I just find myself restless and haven't been at the computer as much as i would normally be. My roommates feel sorta the same way.. don't get me wrong Baltimore is a great city and all, but i'm really starting to get sick of it.. and am feeling the need for a change in scenery. There have been some serious talks about heading west in the not too terribly far off future. My one roommate is from AZ and he greatly misses the west coast. Me there are really a great many places i'd love to see on that side of the country. Cali has come up in talks a few times, and i'm in a situation where i have no real roots.. most of my friends have moved outta state themselves.. same with any family i have. Dating has become utterly stagnant and i work in a field where i can really move anywhere and still find work. Oi, to dream.. hehe

"I am still living with your ghost
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
I dont want to be your downtime
I dont want to be your stupid game

With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe Ill find myself a new place
I dont want to be the bad guy
I dont want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
Go and try and shake away this disease

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die..."
