I may have to wait a while longer.

Women are silly. Never before have I felt that my life was in a state that would be conductive to any meaningful relationship with a woman. I am a nomad - this creates difficulty when it comes to developing any sort of long term relationship. On top of that, my financial situation has usually been less than impressive - mostly because of the difficulty in maintaining a steady income with my nomadic tendencies. This doesn't bother me of courese - I've rarely had trouble keeping myself from starving to death, but it seems to trouble other people.

Now, my life is at a turning point and, though I am not there yet, for the first time in my life I can see myself reaching the point where I could have a meaningful relationship with a woman. And so I have started trying to find a woman with whom to have such a relationship. My plan is to start getting to know someone so that when I am fully ready to "settle down" I'll be well on my way. The problem is that I have to go to Jamaica for a month and after that I'll be traveling all over the country for most of the summer and after that I'll be going to school in Seattle for 7 months. I don't get much past "I have to leave on Friday" and all of a sudden the girl doesn't want to have anything to do with me.

So maybe I'll just have to wait until my life has actually settled down so that I don't have to say that I'm leaving at the end of the week and will be gone for a month and then I might not be around much after that either.
