Well, the project my friend was working on got the funding yanked out from under it, so he's flying back from NYC today instead of Friday. This means my little housesitting vacation is over a few days before planned.
Which is fine ... I like it over here, but I kind of miss the beach. I feel like I've been gone from my place for forever.
He's pissed, though ... they cut his hair short for the shoot before finding out the money disappeared. Oops.
Lately I've been thinking about moving back to Chicago, although not until like next Spring. When I took my new job, I figured I needed to give them at least a year of my time for it to be worth it all around.
Now I'm kind of torn. My life feels completely different here than it did there, but I can't decide which one I liked better. Sometimes I feel like I liked it better there, sometimes I feel like I like it better here. I've been looking through restaurants in Chicago, and I don't really see any that quite fit me, although admittedly that's hard to tell from just reading menus online, but it does give one an impression at least.
Also I just found out that one of my best friends is leaving LA at the end of the year, possibly never to return. That's going to shake me up a little bit. She and I are already a little freaked out about it, and it's like 7 months away.
I think I'm finally getting tired of being a drifter, and I'm subconsciously trying to figure out where I want to sort of drop roots and stay for a while. It's been 4 cities in 5 years that I haven't felt like I had a real home. I think I'm looking for a reason to stay in one place... I just don't know where that place is.
