New...everything...

After four years living back at home I have finally stepped back out on my own. Sure I lived away from home for over five years while I went to college but this isn't the same. Then it was all about parties and making it to class on time, finding time to study and having a part time job that wouldn't interfere with the previously mentioned priorities. Needless to say fantastic time.

Now five years after leaving Auburn University and the part time job that somehow became a full time one, unlimited parties endless days and great friends I am stepping out on my own again. The last several years have been a display of complacency. I have a good job, plenty of friends, wonderful family why would I move to change it all now? Well friends it was those same great things that were keeping me from finding my potental and self. I think of my time at home in some ways like "Failure to Launch" except without McConaughey's abs. But I did have a good time at home, however it was time for me to go.

On Feb 26th, 2010 I bought a "home" for myself. Its nothing special, a one bedroom, one bath condo in downtown Birmingham's Southside. It's a trendy area full shops and resturants, the art scene is big there and it is mostly a younger crowd...late 20's early 30's. I think this will help me to grow and force me to proactive in my own life. This experince will be eye opening, unlike college my parents are not paying for this one...come to think of it I paid for a bit of it in college, hince the somehow having a full time job and not just a part time one... I digress... Now it is time to look to the future and document all the fun. Care to come along?
