so now that you live there..............

I've only been here a little over a month, and I have no regrets. There is so much to do and so much to learn in my line of work that I would never be bored. It is on the hot side now during the day, but it's summer. We need rain on STX! I have no AC in the apartment or car and I'm fine. It cools off in the evening. Yes, it is on the pricey side to live here, but I'm staying put for a long time. The people here are generally very friendly. You encounter a lot of little problems-long lines, less selection in merchandise, an inefficient government-but you work around them. I will carve out a great life for myself here.
