I'm Baaack!

Hi Folks,

Sorry for the long absence. My friend, Work, has kept me busy and prevented me from blogging, but I do have millions of random ramblings floating around in my head just waiting to be thrown out into the blogosphere. Just don't know how those professional bloggers do it, guess that's why I'm not one of them! Anyway, here is to hoping that my blog followers have not dwindled down to nothing because I'm in need of help.

After nearly 356 days living in Cleveland, I am done with it. The short story is really just that I am not happy in Cleveland, try as I might. I'm ready to move on to bigger and better things... and... wait for it... places!  'll keep you anxiously awaiting what my new life goals are (insert joke about how I don't know what I'm doing with life) for another post. As I said, I'm ready to move out of Cleveland. Now here's the tricky part, I'm not sure where exactly I want to live. Go figure. But here are my options with my thoughts thrown in the mix. Please read and get back to me about what you think. And feel free to share with your friends, beloveds, or whoever else may know me but doesn't read my blog (tsk, tsk) and get their input too. I'd appreciate it.

And in no particular order:

1. NYC: It's where concrete dreams are made of, need I say more? JK, some of my best friends live in the city and it's full of culture, diversity and numerous schools should I go back for my masters one day. It's also very expensive.

2. Chicago: Like NYC, it's full of culture, diversity and numerous schools should I go back for my masters one day. It's also a tad bit cheaper to live in, slightly cleaner and crisper than NYC, and about 3 hours closer to my family in Cleveland. I also have numerous relatives living in the Windy City and a few friends currently living in or planning to make the move to Chicago.

3. Nashville: Throwing this out there mainly because somebody who will not be named was supposed to be moving to Chicago with me this summer but ended up deciding to go to Nashville to be with her boyfriend (ugh, love. JK, I fully support you and think you are doing the right/smart thing) and told me I should just head south instead of northwest. Nashville is nice, but I'm worried I'll never meet someone because people marry young there. So I should note that NYC/Chicago are full of young people. Also, in case you all didn't know or haven't realized, I'm no Southern Bell.

4. Charleston, SC: Totally random, I know, but I have taken a few online quizzes that are totally not legit nor do I recommend them, but I didn't want to dole out personal info or $$ for the legit ones and this is what I ended up with. From different sources might ! add. Well this and Vegas to be completely honest. The southern lifestyle does intrigue me, but I have no idea what Charleston is all about as far as young professionals, housing, public transportation, diversity, and night life all go.

So yeah, I'm actually being pretty serious about this and NEED your input. So please help. Would love it.
