It's time

I'm finally getting my wish this September...I'm getting the hell out of Lexington. I moved here in 1999 with my great friend Ashley, then in 2000 to my own place and for most of that time I loved it, and didn't think I'd be heading back home to Mt. Sterling. But, a year ago my life changed, and my life is there, I'm here. So, it makes sense; I feel at home there. I'll still be commuting back here for work (until I happen upon something else over there) but the drive won't be that bad, all interstate with a toe into Lexington's north side, and back out again. It's usually a half-hour drive from here to Mt. Sterling, and some days, its a half-hour drive from here home, just 10 miles away.

Hopefully I'll find a nice place to live, though cheap enough that I will be able to afford my next car, a Mazda 6s. I test drove one when they first came out and fell in love, and it still has a hold on me. My 1999 Mazda Protege is getting long in the tooth, and I'll be doing more driving so its time. She's been a good car and I'm sure I'll miss her.

I know I'll miss being so close to everything, and I'll be frequenting Hamburg much more (ick) due to the convienence factor, but I know we'll still venture into town some Friday or Saturday night to catch a show at The Dame and get a hot brown at Ramsey's. I'm ready for a slower pace, after all, I'm old now.
