Top 5 reasons to NOT move to LA

Okay, I don't really want to upset anybody because I know this issue can be very touchy sometimes, especially since I know that the LAers and Chicagoians have a secret battle to the death. However, I've been pressured to move there since I graduated with a degree in cinema, but I prefer to live in the midwest, I'm sorry guys. It's just easier on me. Now, I'm not saying that LA is a terrible place, I'm just saying I prefer to visit OFTEN and here's why:

5. Almost no rain or clouds, meaning less days to appreciate the sunshine
4. No seasons, I love Autumn and Hot and Not Hot season doesn't really cut it, besides I like color on my trees
3. A thin layer of dust over EVERYTHING, smog isn't all its cracked up to be
2. Hardcore traffic, I can be patient, but road rage will eventually get the best of me on the left coast
1. My friends and family in Chicago, I know there is a time to let go, but it's hard to release your support system

So there you have it. These aren't terrible things, but after my trip out left last weekend these were just a few things I noticed and let soak in. So now let's all just breathe in, relax, accept it, and listen to something nice from the south coast . . . like the Dixie Chicks.

Yep. I know, there's some conflict there too.
