This and That

Despite still logging into Tumblr everyday and checking up on what’s new, I’ve lost pretty much all motivation to keep posting here after everything @staff has and hasn’t done over the last year. Between the NSFW ban and the mobile app fucking up the format of every new post I make, its not worth the effort to deal with this fuckery.

I want to use you and post more. However, my laptop is out for repair and your mobile app is a disaster when it comes to posting. Nothing is formatted correctly when I post from my mobile.

With this last rent check I do declare myself free of my lease in NYC. That is to say that NYC isn’t still home. I just came to the realization that what I’m paying for each month in rent is the same as a week at any 5-star hotel in the city.

You may be asking yourself, well, what’s the difference. The trick here is that I only pay for when I’m actually in the city now. With rent and a lease, I have to pay regardless whether I’ve been working in Texas or where ever the last few months. Where as now, when I want to visit the city and have my own place I can stay at any of the wonderful hotel establishments throughout and not worry about the cost when I’m traveling for work.

Plus, that’s if I even go back to NYC when I’m off from work, which these days is every two or three months. I might be back home with my parents for the week, or up in Maine, or just crashing at a friends place where ever they may be. My bank account is going to be so happy now that I’ve cut 75% off of my monthly expenses.

I’ve been browsing through Zillow a lot these last few days trying to figure out where I might want to move and what I might want to move into. Since NYC is never going to happen, at least for another decade, I’m thinking maybe Portland up in Maine. It’s close to my family’s home up there, the airport has direct flights back to NYC for cheap should I want to visit, and I’ve always loved the vibe of the Old Port district.

At last, I’ve finally finished it. I only started putting this together back in January. Let me know what you think. I always enjoy some constructive criticism.
