i had a conversation today with one of our sales guys that was in the office, visiting from maine. our soon to be opened new york office was brought up, and i mentioned a passing interest in transfering out there. he encouraged me to, and gave me a couple reasons why. this happened at 9am this morning. ive been thinking about it almost nonstop ever since.

i have virtually no ties to san francisco: the law school i came here to attend kicked me out. i dont talk to the people i met while i attended anymore. i have no family in california. people around the office are good people, but im true friends with virtually nobody. im not currently seeing anyone. the lease on my current place expires (if memory serves) at the end of october.

if was i going to do something like this again (moved into san francisco about as blind as one could be), im about as free to do it as i could possibly be. only thing im tethered to is an insane amount of student loan debt; this is mitigated by the fact that i already have a pretty good job. and i have to think that if i work hard a bit longer other opportunities will present themselves. id be moving closer to all my old college friends- everyone is basically in chicago.

if my boss told me tomorrow that i would get a cost of living pay increase and that work would help finance the move, im not sure id say no.

lots to think about.

night.
