Reply to some advice I was given...

Before I reply, let me show you what advice I was given:

     "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR HEART AND
     LOGIC! THEY ARE DUMB!!! YOU HAVE TO GO WITH YOUR DREAMS AND GO TO
     CHICAGO!YOU KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO TO GO TO CHICAGO? I WOULD GO
     FIND SOME POOR BLOKE AND CUT OFF HIS HANDS FOR THAT CHANCE!
     (probably not, but you the picture) SO YEAH, YOU NEED TO GO!!!"

Well, if things keep going the way they're going, I'm pretty sure I will. I'm pretty confident that if my parents leave Louisiana, I will too. I know I could handle being in Louisiana without them, but I don't really want to. I want to be close enough that if anything happens on either end that I can get there without a lot of trouble. I want to be able to surprise them with visits and vise-versa. I know I have a lot of support from my sisters and my friends, but it's not the same as having family close by.


I still haven't made a firm decision, but there are more things that are seeming to pull me from Louisiana, and I guess I just have to wait and see where this takes me.
