i liked turlock when we first moved here, and then around october i started not feeling very safe. with the constant parties thrown by adam's cousin(who doesn't tell me anything about them), more and more people would show up, so more and more problems would arise. cops have come by twice, nothing happened either time.
me and adam have both gotten to stressed and high strung that we take each other's tone the wrong way and we get into little spats for no reason at all.
we've had over $800 of stuff stolen from me and adam alone (including $100 in cash). danny has had stuff stolen too.
i've had shot glasses broken, one from london and spain(my mom got me those when she as in europe), and one shot glass that had the empirical chemical of alcohol as well as a diagram of the atoms etched into it. some stupid "mystery skank" stepped on it and broke it.
there is a growing trend of no respect for the house, and i feel as though danny has no respect for me. it's gotten to the point that i'm uncomfortable being around most of the people that come here, so i pretty much stay upstairs until i go to work, and then go upstairs when i get home. plus danny has not tried to get a job (all day i watch him play games and go on myspace and sleep), so i've had to carry the burden of the bills, which is not easy and has pissed me off a lot.
so finally we decided to leave turlock and move to hawaii. i'm selling as much of my stuff as i can, putting the stuff i want in storage until i can get it shipped over, and hopefully we'll be out of here by the 1st.
i think this will be good for us, and i'm excited to move again, because this time it will be different. more like when we first moved into the apartment, only a couple more thousand miles away.
my other regret is that i won't be able to see my family as much as i'd like, which means i'll miss a good chunk of my little man growing up. but hopefully, we can make enough money so that i can visit at least once a year.
i just can't wait to leave this city, i honestly hope i never move back to turlock. too much violence, too many stupid punk ass kids that apparently were never taught manners from their parents, too many reinforced stereotypes.
