After this prolonged stay in Jamestown, North Dakota I have mixed feelings about the move. Obviously I am pleased to be getting the hell out of here and starting on the path to getting my life back, but at the same time 4 months of being here in a sleepy town with no job and no responsibility makes the thought of heading to L.A. in search of work a daunting and scary concept. The fact that if I don't get a job pronto I will have nowhere to live adds to the pressure. On top of that I am actually slightly sad to be leaving because although the situation (living with the in-laws) sucks, there are people here who I like and will miss. However, dispite all that I wouldn't stay here if you paid me, so all in all I'm pretty happy about going. We'll see how I feel about it in a few months when city life begins to grate... I'm looking at the big city through rose-tinted glasses right now, but when I lived in London there were times I hated it and would have done anything to get out into the country - like they say, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.
So there's the YIYF blog entry for today. Next stop: Washington.
