So I was thinking....

about my nervousness about leaving Los Angeles. I've wanted to leave for some time now....I just feel like I've overstayed my welcome and want to be some place where I feel more in resonance with the surroundings. The problem is that I live in an adorable cottage half a block from the beach

Generalizations....

Yes, we certainly have our white trash galore. ;) But at least we don't sell Jack Daniels at our gas stations, and there are places to buy cool clothes!!!

I quite enjoyed my short stay in Tucson. Oh yeah, and the roads! Just watch out for them brown shirts! They love their radar guns.

Accidents of birth can come in handy. . .

I'm sure! Thank Gods that at least I'm white. ;)

Gods, I hope I don't get mauled by Javelinas (mean little pigs who proliferate in the area).

My thought is that it is less where you live, but the life you make there. I know that sounds terribly trite. As for myself I always want to live in a large city, for the sake of a kind of social "critical mass",a place large enough to support active local occult groups, live theater, other specialized entities.

From the inside out....

Same here, but I at this point I do feel the need for a change. Plus...the plot has just thickened! ;)

Think of it as an adventure! Adjusting to a new place like Tucson will teach you things about yourself and put LA into a different perspective. I've packed up and left LA - twice, and never regretted it (despite dragging my ass back)!

I've done it before too, but never with the intention of leaving permanently. You know, though, all former wanderlust aside, I've always rubberbanded back to L.A. with a new perspective as well. This time I'm decidedly headed Northwest, though. Tucson is a detour.
