The minty fresh death breath is sure to outlast this catastrophy
Okay you guys all suck! I’m struggling to make a tough decision and you can’t even give me a little advice. Even something like “Follow your heart” would have been better than nothing! Just for that, I’m not gonna tell anyone when I make my decision. You’re just gonna have to guess whether I’m still living in Michigan after July. So there!
Alright fine, I forgive you.
Guess who visited me this weekend? Robin! We were so accomplished too even though shopping is the worst activity in the world. And she got to see where I live finally, and she got to meet Brad. Oh Brad. I’d love to tell you all about our adventures together, but he’s a lurker around here, so I’m not free to share my deepest, innermost feelings. I’ll just say that I’m glad I met him. Awwww…
I have to go to the dentist tomorrow and possibly get a wisdom tooth ripped from my mouth. I’m not excited, but everyone’s practically forcing me to go. I’m bringing two of my sisters with me. I’m really not so scared that I need two sisters to hold my hands, but it’s fun to turn ordinary events into family outings!
(that subject is for you erica, it’s stuck in my head)

Aw man, I’m sorry. I know you’ll think I’m lying but I really did plan to write a really long comment, but I wanted to devote enough effort to it, and eventually forgot. So I’ll do it now even though it might be unwanted. Haha.
Okay, I used to think if I could just live in a really awesome place, like New York City for instance, it wouldn’t matter what else I had or didn’t have, because I’d be happy with that. Like, I thought the location and the lifestyle alone would make me happy. Then I went to New York City a few times and as much as I loved it, I realized if I were there on my own, or stuck in a really crappy job that I hated, I might not be happy with just the city. And as much as I really want to get out of here, now I see that I’d miss a lot of stuff. Even the stuff I thought I hated. So it seems like whichever decision you make, there’s definitely going to be stuff you wish you could keep from the other thing, but the most important thing is to decide whether you want people connections or autonomous satisfaction. If you’re at all like me, anyway. And those two things are REALLY REALLY hard to get and have together. So basically I know nothing, but those are my two cents. Sorry they’re kind of lame and not helpful whatsoever. I hope you figure it out!

That’s actually really good advice, and you’re one of my favorite people right now for taking the time to write that.
I think what you said is kinda what I’ve been realizing, I’m just having trouble coming to terms with it and deciding which is more important to me: people connections or autonomous satisfaction.
Thanks for the advice. And sorry I had to miss your rockin’ party!

I hope that this comment is not referring to me in any way since we talk about this quite a bit, and I’m always glad to offer my opinion. SO…I think you need to be careful when writing comments about your entire lj readers…:)
By the way I thought we were extremely productive this weekend, and I loved visiting you! And meeting brad! Thanks for making time for me!

Sorry Rob. Actually at the time I wrote that, you were about the only one who had really helped me in figuring it all out. Love you!
