Home, Sweet Nostalia.

I think I want to move back downtown.  I dropped Will off last night when I picked Nathan up from work and his house is right downtown, maybe 5 blocks from the old apartment.  It made me miss being able to walk to Waterloo, and Amy's, and Whole Foods, and Book People, and the hustle and bustle that IS Austin.  I wish I knew if Whitney was planning on staying after this lease is up, and I wish LeeAnn would move down and live with us.  I would like to BUY a house, but I'm afraid that as soon as I do I'll get some super wonderful offer for a job, or school somewhere else and then I'll be stuck with this house.  But at the same time, if I WERE going to buy a house downtown, right now would probably be the time to do it.  I'm stuck.  I love, love living in the suburbs, but I loved living downtown even more.  We moved down here because Scott was moving to town and now that he's not living with us it kind of makes me mad that we moved at all.  I'm glad to be out of the apartment, especially with the dogs and the cats, and I love having a yard, and room to move around, but I miss living in the middle  of everything.  I miss walking Freja to the dog park. And going to Zilker and just hanging out because it was right there.  Living this far south makes everything seem like such a chore.  I miss walking across the street to Mean Eyed Cat.  Man I miss living downtown. I'm going to start looking, just in case. Maybe I'll find a super wonderful place that we can actually afford.  Or maybe I'm destined to live in Suburbia forever.
