Let's see where this takes me

I've been doing a lot of reading of my past blog this past week. WOW have I changed since 2006. Just wow. It's as if I can read and watch myself maturing slowly over time. It was always one of the reasons in the back of my mind to keep this blog as a makeshift journal/diary to monitor this exactly... looks like it's paying dividends. I wanted to be able to go back and read this if/when I have kids so I can relate to how I behaved at their age, though this only started in my 20s. I *think* I can do this in my mind for remembering what I was like when I was 8, 12, in my teens, etc., but thinking about it more now and my perception of myself at these ages over the past few years, the view is definitely becoming more skewed. I see these "damn kids" that look so young these days, then I estimate what age they might be (which I've determined I'm horrible at), and finally then think of the dumb shit I used to do at that age. I then imagine these "damn kids" that I see doing these things that I did, and my knee-jerk reaction is to scold, scold, scold... guess I'm getting old, old, old...

So yeah I started writing this post with absolutely no idea what would come out... I just know that I've enjoyed reading some of my past posts this week and can't really determine why I ever stopped writing. I love to write creatively, and at one point thought I might become a writer when I grow up. Eh. Maybe not now... but I guess blogging fulfills a little bit of that need.

Will I finally move to the city this year, or will I wait one more? I could see either happening. I will be in the city no later than around 2 years from now for sure, it is just a matter of time and circumstance. I have a friend that just moved to Calhoun, and I saw a picture of his view. Yeah I'm jealous. But I also like my cozy underground heated parking in the winter... not so easy in the city!

I've joined a gym, and I love it. It makes me think back to high school when I could have learned more about weights and fitness... wish I would have taken that over a study hall now. Oh well, now's better than never.

Gah, I have so many different things I could write about right now, but I'll save those for another day. Guess that's all for now.
