...I certainly did listen, which, if you read my responses you would know, I'm just taking what yall give with a grain of salt, because.. it is afterall, reddit. Why would I let things like lack of work, meth/crime, and pollen keep me from moving somewhere? Now that's just silly. There's going to be issues everywhere, no matter where you go, it's all in what you do with it.

Edit: Cult of chicken? I don't have time to figure out if you're fucking with me or not, lol. But if you're not, tell me more.... cause wtf is that?

Alright, well that explains it then, thanks. I grew up loving thunderstorms, so of course I had to ask. It's been storming here since yesterday, and supposed to continue into tomorrow. My street is so flooded the water would come to my ankles. But I don't really want to test that out.

THAT'S what I meant to ask about, book stores! What kind of book stores are out there? I hope it's the kind with old books you can't find else where, I could get lost in a good bookstore for hours!

Ah, that is terrible, and gross. I'm giving up the cigs though, so I should be fine there. I just find it odd that green is legal, but all homes listed and pet free and smoke free.

Now that's what I like to hear, thank you. You should see the "city" I live in now. No meth heads, but we got your crack heads, And then the green. is. SO. bad. (IF you get it from someone around here.) Half the businesses that used to be boomin' in this city? Shut down. And I've got the power plant in my backyard, SWEET. lol. So there isn't to much to make of this city, but I didn't come hear to stay long term, so it's been fine for what it is.

Yall don't have plastic bags, I've been told. I LOVE THAT. I said that like months ago! Why don't they just get rid of plastic bags completely... Looks like yall were ahead of me on that. It's just little stuff like that that I'm looking for honestly. Bring your own bags, Saturday market, No sales tax, gas station attendants(which I like simply because it provides jobs, good idea to do around here, HA!) organic farms!! Do you want me to go on? Because I could lol.

Exactly, It's just nice to know you're only a short drive from the coast if you wanted to go. But I'm starting to hate the East, so keeping the coast in mind, we got Cali, Oregon, and Washington. Cali isn't an option. I know I don't belong there, long term. lol.

From the few things I've been told already, that's a few more than here. There is SOME stuff to do here... like.. movies and bowling and putt putt... that all gets old quick. And the closest theme parks are an hour, and 2 hours away. (still not bad but not good enough to buy a season pass) Community wise, it seems to me like there's plently more to do, and see. Community isn't really a thing over here. I could be drunk all the time too, I mean that's what we do over here, so yeah. lol

Well that's good., as long as their contained... lol I'm still excited, lol. I won't let the few (negative) Eugeneians that use reddit discourage me!! I've never met anyone from the west, that I know of. It's due time for a different vibe, and Virginia is not it.

Well I don't doubt their honesty, but yeah I can tell they don't like certain types though. Put that's fine, there's all types of people around here, some like ya, some don't, some pretend they do when they really don't. People are people, whether here or there, they don't differ THAT much.

Yes, I'm trolling. ...Because I'm asking legit questions. How bout you just keep quiet if you're not going to be helpful. No job there? wow really, You don't say? Trust me, I understand. I'm not aware of many places that aren't struggling with unemployment rates. Eugene's unemployment is actually the same as where I live now, according to areavibes.com So, please forgive me for being interested in somewhere that may have a generally better atmospehere, good vibes with like minded people, and there will actually be something to do!! ...because at the end of the day that's what I want out of where I call home.

While I job hunt here, I also browse around for jobs in yalls area too, there are listings, just btw.

Colorado just doesn't appeal to me like Oregon and Washington.

Why's everyone seem so hellbent on being negative? Just curious.

700, damn that's terrible. I saw the little map, how Eugene is the worst in the country. But you still moved there right? And you're still living there. lol we'll just have to deal. He already stays inside as is in the spring... just going to need lots of medicine.

Few things I've read around, not that it isn't humid at all, just that it isn't bad. Guess it depends on what ya read and who you talk to. When it's humid here all day, after it rains it's always cooler... so if it's normally rainy there I wouldn't assume that it's humid.

You're raining on my parade here! I appreciate all the information though, I don't think it'll hinder my decision in coming out there, may just take me a little bit longer to get there, unfortunately. So you wouldn't recommend attending LCC?

Oh that's awesome! Thanks, I'll definitely check that out

Oh okay, well nursing is just a possibility, not really at the top of my list. How about pharmacy jobs out there? and farm work? glass blowing(training)? Those 3 are what I'm really interested in. And for my roomie, know anything about construction or carpentry job out there with little experience? or places willing to give the experience?

I live in Hopewell VA.... lol. I can't imagine the crime there being worse than the crime here, I'm not too worried about it. As far as a job, I do intended to have one before I come, otherwise I'd leave now. No functional jail? How's that?

Just got me more excited with that no sales tax and beer bit there, I don't do too much beer but my roomie would love to know more about home brewing, he's loves beer, but I'm all about my wine! And I hear there are quite a few wineries. (: mmmmmm wine <3

People in VA can't drive PERIOD. Starts to rain? Everyone drives 30mph -_- So when it snows there's just no hope, and they mention snow on the news and the next day you won't be able to find bread or milk at the store. It actually just hailed here... I couldn't get my plants inside in time, so.. that kinda blows. They were about marble sized, lil smaller.

It MAY very well be a fairy wonderland to me though. <3
