sigh....

Sorry I haven't updated with anything really substantial lately. This is supposed to be about my adventures here in Chicago.

This past year has been one of the most difficult ones in my life and I feel beat up, worn down.  I want some semblence of normality.   Breathing space.  I don't think I'll ever get it.

I felt like I belonged in T.O. and now I'm here and I wake up every morning with a profound aching in my heart for something I had and seemingly threw away for something as superficial as a "job".  I need a community of friends around me, and I don't think that's possible here.  I'm going to stick this out for as long as I can, but I don't think that it will be as long as I imagined it to be.   Eyes open for T.O. area:  Sunnybrook, PMH, Mississauga, Oshawa, Newmarket.  Something HAS to come up.  
I really feel like an alien here.  I need Canada.
