Well, congratulations on the upcoming move! I hope you like seafood, because as someone who has always lived in coastal states, having all the fancy regional fresh seafood around is really wasted on my dull palate. XD
My friend: "I found this really great seafood place, a little hole in the wall, let me take you."
My friend, after eating: "What do you think?"
Me: "Tastes like... fish?"
Don't like crabs, don't like lobster, don't like most fish... I wasn't born to live on the coast, clearly.
Not a huge fan of fish, but I do like crab, lobster, and shrimp and I think they all taste almost identical. You remove the texture and I wouldn't be able to say what it was, but I'd know it was shellfish. Only other seafood I like is tuna. But, like... From a can. Fresh caught and grilled? Ew. Idk what that says about my tastebuds.
I’m a pescatarian for the same reason some people give up all meat but bacon lol. I love fish too much to stay stuck in Ohio. My wife hates the stuff though lol.
And thanks, I’m very excited in part because we picked the city in question because a good friend lives there, and I’ve already found out it has all the things I love about my current location or at least close enough. We’re also a little excited because it’s closer to my siblings in law and we’re probably going to become aunts in the next few years so it’ll be good to be closer to the kids for extra spoilage. I just wish the move was more “hey this is crazy and we’re some of the least reckless people around but sometimes you gotta” instead of the “we’re afraid that if we don’t do this we may find ourselves tragically regretting staying”
Eyyy, glad to see I'm not the only one planning to leave Ohio; I'm eyeing the west coast myself, CA State job benefits look very attractive but I'd rather get any job (fully remote or in person) first and try for a state job later.
I need to get with my landlord this week and see about changing my lease renewal to month-to-month, since it doesn't technically renew till January.
I'm mostly done getting rid of all the junk I don't need and making what i still have more compact. I gotta work on my resume and start applying.
Literally the only thing I think I'll miss from Ohio is Jungle Jims. Love that damn place. not living near my parents will suck for a bit, but frankly, I never wanted to live here anyway.
