I'm moving to Los Angeles.
Hey Eric, what's this I hear about you moving to Los Angeles?
Oh um, yeah. I'm moving to Los Angeles.
When did you decide this?
At Jake, Kurt, Willie, and Topher's party back in May, actually. As the night (and week crashing with them) went on, I realized I was missing out on something fun on a daily basis. And I finally realized "You know, it ( Read more... ) -

Stupid Joss Whedon...
... for concisely articulating why its so hard for me to commit to following through and actually writing ideas (its taken me 3 years to verbalize it, and all I could come up with is "I guess I'm lazy.")
