Michigan Visit

So I'm back in Michigan for a wedding and I have to say its good to be back. Its strange though, everytime I fly into Detroit it always seems to be cloudy and rainy. It just enhances my feelings about Detroit being a dirty, grey, down-on-its-luck city. Which it is. Regardless, I never really realized how much I liked living in Michigan until I tried living somewhere else. Not that Montana is bad. Its pretty cool there with all the mountains and rivers and stuff, but I don't think I could live there for any length of time. At least not out in the middle of nowhere like I do now. I forgot how much I enjoy being an active participant in our consumer driven society. I can actually drive a few miles and get pretty much everything I need. Convenience is the shit. In Montana I have to drive an hour in order to visit a Wal-Mart. So instead I end up having to go to K-Mart. And yes, K-mart in Montana is just as shitty as the few left in Michigan. Also, Montana is dry as hell. It never rains and its really dusty. My car is so dusty on the inside that I get out caked in dirt. Michigan may be humid, but I say humidity is better than a dust bowl. And today I saw a rainstorm for the first time in like 3 weeks. I'm definetely glad that I get to live in Montana for right now, but I could never call it home. So to all of you who are thinking of moving, just remember, Michigan ain't all that bad. "Michigan: Hey, at least its not Ohio."
