the time has come

It seems that now (or rather the next month) is the perfect time for me to leave the city where I live right now. I've been doing what I do for 1.5 years now. That's about 1.4 years longer than I wanted to be doing this. I have lived in this city for 3.5 years after telling myself I'd only be here for a year. Bah. I got caught in the trap of being gainfully employed and appreciating the cash flow. I got used to the lifestyle of doing as I pleased and not having to worry too much about money or friends. Now, the majority of my friends have left and moved to bigger and better cities. Now, it's my turn.

I'm looking to law school now and thinking that I can spend some time between now and next fall doing some things I enjoy. My father is having hip replacement surgery at the end of the year. I will spend sometime taking care of him. Then I'm going to think about heading out West for a while to see some friends that I miss dearly and haven't seen in way too long.

The timeline is short. Mere weeks. If I don't move now, I won't do so anytime soon. It's time to move on. Time to pack my bags and hit the road. Back on the road where I started on years ago. Time to go pursue my dreams.
