Back Again I Suppose

I always find blogging for the first time in months to be such an odd experience.  I feel like I’m not familiar enough with the blog to be in a talkative post mood yet I hate that I always feel like I am just penning another “update” set. 

 I actually am very upset with how I have stopped blogging.  I started this whole shebang when I was single and the majority of woes I experienced came from dating.  Then I met the boy and things have just gone downhill from there.  Its not that I am complaining by any means, I love the fact that I’ve found someone to love and continue loving for the past 18 months or so.  So I’ve been struggling with the idea of how to get back into this hobby of mine.

I could blog about the problems or fights we have or something else.  Yet I almost want to keep Mark out of the blog as much as possible.  I dont want to be one of those “gays”.  You know the ones, always writing about their togetherness.  As if they are lording it over all of the singles in the world (and God knows there are a ton).

So I suppose I could start with my recent trip to Austin, TX. 

Mark and I have been trying to decide where we are going to relocate following our finishing of college.  I still have about a year and a half left so there isn’t any rush.  We just wanted to start figuring it out now.  And frankly while living in Jacksonville, FL there isn’t much more to do than daydream about moving to some other city.  A city with, well…. culture and more than 2 gay bars. 

So Mark and I really enjoyed Austin.  The rundown was that we needed somewhere hip, yet refind.  Young, yet mature.  Somewhere where we could complete the tail end of your long educational journey.  We’d been to Atlanta and Chicago and both of those cities were excellent.  But Austin seems to be so much more inviting. 

The city seems to be a great place to live.  And I wouldn’t be surprised that if in December of 09′, we are packing a Uhaul with some minor possesions and making that 16 hour drive.

Gee, thats a fun thought. 

 So anyways, here’s hoping that I can start blogging more.  I miss it.

 Much love and a happy new year to all.
