I don't try hard enough to update this thing. I think it's mostly because I think too hard about what I want to write about, think it sounds like shit after I write and erase it like it never even happened. For my first blog post of the year I guess I'll just talk about myself or something, since I'm so goddamn fascinating, am I right? I rang in 2012 in Austin with some great people, and despite starting off the year with a few minor health setbacks, I'm doing pretty well so far. Work keeps me insanely busy but nothing new there.
The first week or so after getting back I was a little sad because I missed Texas so much. I usually go through a post-Texas depression every time I come back to New York from home, but it's never lasted as long as this last time. Usually I'm good and happy to be back after a day or two, but I realized on this last trip how much I really missed everyone in Houston/Austin, and how I probably won't find a group of people like them anywhere. It was the first time since I've moved that I seriously considered for a minute moving back. I'll never ever rule out moving back to Texas, I feel like there will always be a place in my heart for Austin especially. I think on this past trip home I really connected with people that I hadn't before and I truly do miss their company. I feel like even though I've finally settled down in this city, everything is just so up in the air and I still don't even know where my life is heading really. I guess we'll see. I wonder when it's going to snow here.
