Cleveland or Seattle?
My life has been dominated by a few things lately:
1) The breakup with Trida
2) Work of varying types
3) Baseball
Work hasn't been going that well lately; suffice to say we're “running bad,” to use a poker analogy. To be fair, I haven't been putting in the hours I should be at work, so I really need to put my head down and get to the grind. However, on the other side of that, when we're consistantly “running bad,” going into work isn't exactly something you want to do. That's no excuse, but it doesn't help with the elevated stress levels I already deal with.
At any rate, I need to figure out what I'm doing with my life, and soon. It's not that I'm putting it off; I want to get started. The problem lies in the fact that I have no idea where to start thinking about it. One thing is for sure, though: Where I live needs to be addressed ASAP. Though the title of this post is “Cleveland or Seattle,” my friends have offered to live with them in Irvine, CA as well.
I think after I'm done with this bit of work I'm currently grinding out, I'll start making a list of pros/cons in each city and situation I'd find myself in. Maybe that will help guide me along the way of this major inflection point.
One thing that has greatly reduced my stress levels has been quitting as a moderator (and reading altogether) the TwoPlusTwo forums. Wasting my time, energy, and effort on that site is really distracting me from stuff I should be getting done, work-related or not.
I really like this new Radiohead CD.
best of luck to you, kyleb.
