In Virginia

I'm in Richmond, VA right now. I decided to take a trip to see the area because I need to move out of CT. I drove down yesterday and it took me six and a half hours, the longest I've ever driven by myself. It was quite boring but thankfully I planned it just right and avoided most of the D.C. rush hour traffic. Last night I met up with a friend of mine's cousin and her fiance who live here and they drove me around the city for a while showing me the different sections, the good ones and the ones to avoid. It seems like there's a really cute downtown section with tons of shopping and cafes, so I'm going to explore that area more today. There's also several hospitals so finding work here will hopefully not be too hard. I'll probably visit one of those today too. I'm leaving on Saturday and Matthew and I discussed me coming to Dover on my way back up, either to just stop by for a while and have dinner or to spend the night. What do you think? Bad idea, I know. He's so over it. I'm not over it. Not by far. So I want to go see him, especially since this is the longest that we've gone without seeing each other and if I don't see him now it'll probably be another month before I get another chance to see him. I wish I didn't want to see him anymore. I shouldn't go because I know it'll just be really hard being there and I'll end up an emotional mess and he does not want to deal with that since he has to prepare for a mission on Monday. I don't blame him. I don't want to deal with it either. Well, I have to get out of this comfy bed now and go look around this city that could potentially be my new home one day.
