I just realized I drove the wrong way.<\/p>\n<p>But to the point. I was sitting at home, unemployed, coming to the realization that Seattle just isn&#8217;t the town for me.  The people are waaay to enamored with coffee to the point half of the population would go postal if they didn&#8217;t get their morning cup of Starbucks.  <\/p>\n<p>The other thing.  They&#8217;re wussies when it comes to the weather.  Seriously, I was walking downtown yesterday and it was in the low 50s.  I was doing just fine with only a long sleeve shirt on and the rest of the population of Seattle was in their sub-zero winter coats!  I can&#8217;t handle people all bundled up and crazy about freezing to death.  I mean really we don&#8217;t even have a lot of rain here and only the occasional windstorm that knocks power out for two weeks.  Where do these people get off whining about the weather?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m taking a leap, a leap of faith. I&#8217;ve decided I&#8217;m moving to Manhattan.  Yup, that little island.  I&#8217;m scared shitless. There is so much risk that I just assumed, but I have faith that I&#8217;m making the right decision, I have faith that things will find their way towards what they&#8217;re supposed to be, I have faith in my ability to understand and surmount the challenges that I&#8217;ve brought upon myself.  But at least I&#8217;ll have people who know how to deal with shit around me.  I mean they know how to deal with the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/February_2007_North_America_Winter_Storm\">weather<\/a> there.  No whining about not one, but three major power outages.
