Yeah, that's so central to my moods, the seasons...it's weird, sometimes I get sad when the snow starts melting, or when the sun starts shining after winter...do you ever feel that way?

They say that Oregon has very defined seasons, so you'd like it here probably.

oh weird, chapped lips by morning, that would freak me out!! arid/cold climate it must be...my boyriend's mother lives in Colorado...she hates it, the weather makes her miserable.

So where have you been in your travels? Besides where you've already told me? I find it pretty fascinating that you get to do that...although I wouldn't want to do it *too* much, the option would be nice.

hmm. let me see... ive worked in south dakota, minnesota(sp?), wisconsin, colorado, arkansas, illinos(sp?), ohio, georgia, michigan, and indiana. thats about it i think. i do like seeing new places and traveling, but i think it is opposite from the direction that i feel my life needs to go.
its actually not much of a life, and i dont want to turn out to be like some of the guys ive seen that do that all the time

wow, you've been everywhere almost! I've only travelled to California...how sad is that?!

When you say you think it's the opposite of where you want your life to go, do you mean that you'd rather settle down in one spot (not talking about marriage, just settling in to one place)? I can understand.

i know youve seen the movie so. at about 24 i went through a great expectations stage, and put all foolish dreams aside(love and happiness) and decided to grow up. all i did was work. and i mean like a bat outta hell. 12 to 14 hour days were very common, weekends, holidays, i didnt care. i feel like i shut my emotions down and became a worker drone. i dont want to feel that way anymore. i want to feel like i used to.

Oh I just LOVE IT when my computer completely freezes when I'm in the middle of a conversation with someone... (!!!) Sorry cj...

Okay wow, for a Cancer I am suprised that you were able to cut off emotionally at all, but I completely understand what you mean. I have the urge to do that sometimes, but I don't know if I could actually do it. It's weird though, and depressing sometimes, because sometimes it feels like those really *are* foolish dreams, even though in the back of my mind I know they don't have to be so.

Right on^^...actually I think you should just build one large mansion and we can share. We're friends, we can handle it. LOL!

I would love to live in Brookings, OR. It's this coastal town that's expensive to live in but I just love how everything is fish and boats, you know? So cute.

it must be the water sign thing but, it definitly soothing to be around water. a running stream, waves crashing, waterfalls. i love it.

yes, me too! Good point, about the water sign correlation. I love going to sleep to the sound of my trickling fountain. Yet, other times, it annoys me...but for the most part, I love it. And yeah, waves crashing is perhaps the best sound on the planet.

lol, i love those corona commercials, they definitely make you want to escape (and um, have a beer) LOL. Yeah you seem like someone who works really hard and I think you deserve a vacation. Send me a postcard, and while you're there you can scope property for our beach mansion, okay? lol
