Finally figured some shit out

I think I finally figured out what I want out of life. Well, I at least figured out how I want to live and where. I've been thinking about if for the last couple years and I keep coming back to the same scenario. So there must be something to it.

I want to live in a smallish town somewhere very close to the ocean. I want to have a simple job, a simple house or apartment and maybe an animal or two. I want to take long walks on the beach, ride my bike everywhere, read books, watch DVDs, eat tasty foods and drink tasty beverages. Of course, I'd like [info]decadentscholar to be there with me. Fuck it, that's all I really need to be happy. Just a few simple things. I can give up the film festivals, the bars, the punk rock shows, the record stores and all the rest of the things that make living in the city worthwhile. If I really start jonesing for the urban, I can always come to town for a weekend or a week or whatever. I'm sure someone I know will still be around. I've done my time in the suburbs and I've had my fun in the city. It's time to move on to something new. Something simpler. Something quieter. Someplace where all I hear are the sounds of wind and waves (inspiration courtesy of [info]blueredandgrey) instead of sirens, cars and the girl downstairs slamming her bedroom door.

Now I just need to figure out how to get there...
