8/3/10

I don't believe in fate, or karma, or any of that predestination bushwah, and I know that we humans are wired to find patterns in the random Brownian motion of everyday life.

If I did believe in that stuff, though, there are three places which have, with increasingly unlikely regularity, been imposing themselves upon my awareness just as I've been contemplating a change of scenery: Austin, North Carolina and Portland OR. It's really getting to the point where I'm getting exasperated with the imp of perversity that I know does not exist.

Come to Austin!

Even just to visit!

Austin? North Carolina? Wouldn't you have to hide from the sun about 10 months out of the year?

I'm a fan of portland and austin.

For all the obvious reasons. :) I think the south holds a Rabbit. I would migrate south for a Rabbit.

Portland has been doing that to me, too. It seems to be the "hip new place" everyone wants to be, so I keep hearing about it from every corner.

Yes, Austin, please!!!!!!!

Austin is in Texas.

North Carolina is in, well, North Carolina.

I would not visit either of them unless it's paid-for by work.

YMMV.

Did you not see the clause in the NE BWB contract that says you can never leave?

I have a lot of friends in Portland. They love it.
