Hi, I'm 34 and just recently decided to absolutely ruin my social life by changing careers and going back to school full time for a job that will make less money than the one I had. Sound like I am a retard? Well several of my friends would agree and it can seem that way sometimes but it will be worth it.... I hope to God it will be worth it. I moved back to Nashville a little over a year ago after living in Birmingham AL, New Orleans, Portland OR, Scottsdale AZ and Hotlanta, and am about to finish my second semester of Nursing School. For the early 90s I was a musician and a train wreck simultaneously to Behind the Music proportions. for the last part of the 90s and early 00s I sold my soul to the corporate world which was actually fun for a while and I did accumulate a ginormous guitar and amp collection so it wasn't all bad, but over a period of time I did feel my identity start getting sucked away so it was time for a change which brings me here. All of the friends I have made over the last 10 years live in different states which is great when I want to go somewhere but I don't have the time to pick up and leave due to school and work. And the friends I grew up with here are mostly married and boring ( if any of my friends are reading this, I love you, but I could really care less about listening to your home decorating ideas and which preschools are good in your area) so I am trying to meet new friends the easiest possible way.......while I am supposed to be working. I am easy going but can be moody on occasion (musician thing I guess) I am trying to get back into working out regularly cause I stopped about 5 weeks ago and decided to smoke alot more instead. I usually play alot of guitar and song write but lately I have been slacking at that as well due to all the paperwork at school. So I am just looking for something to do, I am very open minded and it is pretty hard to find something I don't like to do. I am typically the type of person who can have just as much fun going to the grocery store as going out for the night as its all in the attitude to make things fun no matter where you are. Oh, and if you are too nice of a person without a slightly cynical side and an appreciation of dry humor you will probably think I am an A-hole, but I am really not......well I can be....... but I'll leave it to you to decide:)
