Homesick.

And that's just the start of it all. I know I said I was enjoying being in Ohio, but I really just want to go back to Seattle.

My fiancee and I have discussed it and if I can find the means, I'm going to try to get back home. I don't know what I'll do once I get back there, but I need out of Ohio. My health and my sanity are suffering here because I can't get around. I'm tired of walking to the same places. I need access to public transportation.

Nice thing is though, I found a flight on Orbitz going from Dayton to Seattle with one stop for under $200 if I fly after Labor Day. That was pretty cool.

Anyways, yeah... I needed to vent because I feel like I'm just plain stuck here. I'm not remotely happy about it, but I figure after a year and a half I would have gotten used to it, but no, not really.

i've left seattle twice, one time to Champaign, Illinois, and the other to Savannah, GA. I've come back both times feeling so homesick for this place I couldn't breathe anywhere else.

I get excited thinking of living in DC, Chicago, New York...but I KNOW I will always miss Seattle and need to come back. So I am never leaving again!

I hope you find your way home very soon.

I think there are websites where people can donate miles they are going to let expire for people in binds like yourself. Or, if you can get a doctor to write a note saying your health is declining there, you can get discount fares. Maybe even a train ticket? Bus? If I was anywhere close I'd drive you! But no driving trips planned:(

Having just spent the weekend in a city where the buses didn't run near where I was staying, I can understand why you would be homesick. Everything's so much easier when you can just hop a bus/train and go anywhere.
