Detroit Michigan, home of Motown, General Motors, Iggy Pop, the Insane Clown Posse, Eminem, Ted Nugent, The Red Wings and very soon me.
It doesn't seem real in some ways, I've been talking about my relocation for almost a year and now here it is... Not Boston, Not Philadelphia, North Jersey, or White Plains, but Detroit. So I guess a little back-story is in order, my former boss, good friend, and all-around-pain-in-the-butt Sharon is taking me with her as she becomes F&B Director for MGM Mirage Resorts in Detroit. I'm excited and I'm scared I've been waiting for this for so long, and I'm just so afraid of going out there and blowing it. I mean I know the job, and I know what's expected of me, but it's weird, this is something completely new, and if I blow it, I have no where to run back to. Plus I'm expecting Alex to come and join me in Detroit after a few months, and it's all just coming at me like icebergs of change. Now don't get me wrong, I'm good under pressure, but this whole situation is just making me crack a little. I don't think I've ever been more stressed, but in a couple months it will hopefully go away. I dunno, is there anyone reading this from Michigan? Maybe you can tell me what there is to do? Where to live? Oh well in a year it will be like I never lived anywhere else but right now, I'm just brimming with anticipation, I mean feel these nipples! One more point of order to all my friends locally who read this we have to hang out, go out, blow out before I go, this is the real deal, I'll be out of here before you know, and there's so much to say to all of you. You guys mean the world to me, and I'm going to be leaving you all, t sucks. Maybe I can get you all jobs. Who wants to come to Detroit?

Oooh Detroit, voted this year's most dangerous U.S. city. Way to go! Of course I wish you all the luck in the world, Leo. As for me, nah I think I'll stay in this hell hole of a state for another few years. Rob mentioned moving to Florida... I'd like to move out west somewhere, but who knows. We should hang out though... keep saying we will, but we don't. Pssh, story of my life!
