my own worst enemy

Go west, young man.

This Friday is the end.

The end of my stay here in Northern Virginia.

So long, bad drivers. So long, fake communities. So long, boring chain restaraunts. I'm on to bigger and better things. It's back to the cool waters of the Pacific! Back to sunshine and 70s! Back to good Mexican food! Back to smog! Back to earthquakes and wildfires! Oh wait. Strike those last two sentences.

To be honest, it's not California that I'm excited about. It's getting to live in my own place, with my own bed and my own kitchen. It's not having to live out of a suitcase or be limited to the same 10 outfits. It's not having to pack up all my possessions every two weeks.

I actually kind of like the DC area. I wouldn't mind living here sometime, but I would definitely get a place in the District or very close to it. Don't ever live in Northern Virginia, it's not worth it. At all. Trust me on this.

My biggest complaint about leaving the DC area is having to leave my friends behind. Hanging out with Jism has been awesome, and by awesome I mean totally sweet. It's been nice having someone around who appreciates sweet-tea, the Muppet Show, ND obsessions, good food, good conversation and good company. I'll miss impromptu dinners and gamewatches with KLanders. And I didn't even get to see Crackwhore. What's up with that? Honestly.

But I'm making the best of my last few nights here. Tonight I'm going to an amateur comedy night with Jism, KLanders and friends. Tomorrow it's chili and sweet-tea for dinner at Jism's followed by Wallace & Gromit with her friends. Awesome McAwesome. Now I just have to make sure to pictures with these people before I leave. That's going to be difficult as I forgot my camera. D'oh!
