I don't belong in Tucson.
I wonder if people who spend most of their life livng where they were born are happier overall than people who spend most of their life living far away from where they were born.

That's ridiculous. Quality of life is what you make of it. Stop trying to blame your unhappiness on external forces and accept the fact that you controll your own life.

well, of course there are always many factors at play, but it is sure a helluva lot easier to fall into a rut if you stay in one place. i mean, you know what they say about a rollin' stone...

as for living where you're born, the same thing can apply with any place. i'm sure i wouldn't be happie if i'd spent most of my life in des moines iowa.

I was going to rant about Tucson for awhile, but I just realized I wouldn't be saying anything you don't already know

I prefer intelligent conversation as well, but I think the mental energy that running the cafe drains from me leaves me feeling kinda too retarded. And since I have little interest in any of the things that most people I know talk about these days, I usually don't feel like I have the mental capacity to talk about anything that isn't directly related to the act of running the cafe, unless I'm talking to one person for a significantly long amount of time and I snap out of it, however between my schedule, my bouts of depression, my piss-poor sleep habits, etc., this is a rare occurence

Yeah, I'd like that. =)

i am so glad to be close to leaving this place. i think if i had been born in a place i loved i wouldn't have any desire to leave. one can travel all around and always return to "home". tucson never quite felt like home ... until a couple of years ago. that causes me to panic because i sure don't like this place. the weathers craptacular, employment for success is a joke, and meeting worth while folks is to far rare an incident to mention. i do have "friends". no one that calls me or wants to do anything interesting. and that's just it. besides the awesome out of the city outdooring stuff available in plenty around here there's just not much to do - and no one wants to go outdoors with me ever! all anyone is interested in is hanging out at bars and cafes, which is all the rest that there is to do. what more do i want? who knows ... museums a plenty - a natural science one would be awfully nice, is an aquarium to much to ask for, rivers and green parks within front door walking distance, interesting buildings to look at, better live
