    Dude, I'll take a left where I'd usually take a right just to hear two more songs when I'm on my own because I like to sing when I'm on my own.

    My car is like Caesar's Palace and I'm like Celine Dion in residency for years.

    But my music is better

    Your first mistake was going to Trump Towers when there is so much else to do and see in NYC....Countless number of museums of all kinds for one thing.......You gotta know the ins and outs of the city and not fall into the tourist traps....
    I would never go anywhere to visit a Trump anything.

    I have been there for the holiday season a few times....and did nott experience the sidewalks that crowded as in your photo there.....and the few times I have, I can maneuver and get through the crowds pretty quickly....Guess it comes naturally to me spending much time in NYC all of my life.....

    but no one has to like it there or visit ever again...As a matter of fact, tell everyone it is a shit hole, so more people stay away. W don't need any more crowds here.....

    I have been to quite a few places in PA...Philadadelphia was ok, but I did not like much else there.....so touche...lol

    I don't fault you or anyone for hating the cities.......I live in the country, so I can visit the city when I want to, and then go back home to my wonderful owl in the wood.....lol

    When I was a kid I went to visit my cousin in Virginia. I got to hit up DC and check out the Smithsonian. I tell ya, if I could travel anywhere in the world, I would go back to DC and go through the mall and the museums and everything at a snail's pace and absorb as much of it as I could.

    Really? God, I thought it was so boss. Of course, I was eight at the time. Maybe now, I'd be like, "Meh..."

    Really. I did not feel at home there. Some of the museums were ok, though.
    I am really not a political animal.

    yeah, I guess if you're not into that, DC could leave a bad taste in your mouth. It amazes me that regular people live there, right in the shadow of the White House.

    Especially these days with what we've got residing within it...

    At the beginning of the year I moved from a three bedroom house in the burbs to a one bedroom apartment for almost the same price in the middle of downtown Dallas.

    I love it though. I'm two blocks from Dallas MOMA. I'm three blocks from work. I've filled up my gas tank once in 2018.

    I used to spend 3 hours a day commuting. Now I can see my apartment from work!

    I can kinda understand how you feel though. I spent some a lot of time on a ranch growing up. I wouldn't mind retiring somewhere I could see the stars.

    Wanna come live in the city instead?

    I've got an actually comfortable fouton couch, and the Y down the street is hiring.

    I live about 40 minutes from a fairly large city and I go there about once a year. I've been living in a temperate rainforest for the past 20 years and enjoy seeing the changing seasons and animals coming and going. Pretty much all the forests around the area are being clear cut now and being turned into apartments, housing developments or warehouses. It's pretty sad.

    You should cash in on the hipster farm to table movement you dissed in your thread about hipsters, go back to the farm full time and sell your product back to the sustainable hipster restaurants in the city

    You could rent out your land as a wedding venue too. Or rent it out for birthday parties, give tours to school children, etc .Thats what the local farms near here do and they're quite successful. Hire someone to actually deal with the public while you do the behind the scenes work

    Or am I wrong in thinking your mom has a farm? Is it a farm or just property?

    I don't really give a fuck if you think I'm a troll. I'm not. I've meant every single word I've said here.

    Then you should probably get some help.

    I'm being serious. If you're so miserable that you want to kill yourself over your job or cities or whatever your issue is, you should probably call a professional ASAP. I'm just worried that you being in the middle of nowhere means there isn't anyone to call.
