I have to love it here, or I am sunk, I will be unhappy.
I love my wife, and she isn’t leaving the state, so neither am I. I suppose if it were up to me, and I weren’t married to her, I would move somewhere else, but...I do love it here, political crap sandwich notwithstanding.
There is a huge amount of history, lots of culture, the mountains are close, the ocean is close, the landscape is hilly, green and beautiful, it has wonderful seasons, even the winter which I love.
Sigh. And then there are the Kerrys, Kennedys, Franks, Coakleys, Markeys, Warrens, and Studds of the world. This damn place seems full of them, everything I hate and despise in politics, and I feel as if I have to bear it because I don’t have any other choice.
And then when a candidate like Scott Brown comes along, I stupidly buy into it hook, line and sinker because I am so desperate to get some kind of political option that isn’t a far left, communist, socialist, anti-American hack.
Just, damn.
If I were there, I’d probably just try to never think of politics. lol
