Ready To Move

Recently took a trip to check out places to live. Trying to be smart about moving so that everything goes smoothly and it's part of being an adult. I just hate waiting but I'd like to not run into any hiccups where I'd have to come back to the small town where I live now. It's so isolating here. To do anything is 30 minutes or more away from where I live. That's if the weather is ok. I also live where it snows and when the weather sucks I'm either stuck at home or going slower than the speed limit to get to anywhere. I've tried to make friends here the past few years that I've lived here. So far it's all been for nothing. One friend moved away to be near family, the other has had some mental issues. All the other people I've met love to party and get drunk. I don't drink and I'm not one for parting unless it's playing Mario Party. I like gaming, reading, writing, and binge watching things. All stuff people here don't really like to do. I've lost count how many times someones made a comment about the fact I don't drink. That I love to read or write. It's been hard in recent years to let it roll off my back. There is only so much one can take of the constant criticism and remarks about what I love to do. Every where I have every lived I've never gotten this much grief over my enjoyments out of life. They some how can not understand I don't need to spend my days sitting on the porch getting drunk and talking about people and their business. I feel so alone and isolated.
