There are creepers like that everywhere, I've heard similar stories from lots of female friends. One of my ex's was in a bar after she turned 21 and this old guy was like "You remind me of my granddaughter, want to come home with me?" I grew up in a medium sized town (80,000) almost half were college kids (Indiana University) and that town seems overflowing with creepers and perverts.

Lol, so what happened in Bakersfield? I find seedy towns/neighborhoods to provide free entertainment so long as it's not bad enough to drag me into it. But I'm not a girl so I don't have to worry (as much) about getting raped and such. Just mugged, but I have some experience on how to take care of myself in less wholesome environments.

I understand that reaction to Bakersfield, it's looks like a dirty seedy type of town. But I don't really get that reaction to Sacramento, it's very pretty, at least when I was there. I'm sure there is a bad side of town but otherwise it looks nice.

Oceans are nice. I've always wanted to live in a town with lots of palm trees and near the beach but that's either Florida or SoCal. I don't like Florida's humidity, insects or hurricanes. But SoCal is expensive. I'm still looking for places to check out after I move next fall probably. I have a job at Best Western hotel right now and if I keep it I should be able to transfer to any Best Western around the country. I was checking out Sacramento and Bakersfield too recently. Sacramento is nicer of course, I've been there before. Bakersfield is cheap, but of course it's desert and away from the coast.

It would be fun...if I was a rockstar, Lol. Small places don't bother me for a little while. I may just buy some cheap land in Tucson or something. Lots go for as little as a couple thousand. And build my own home.

Yeah, but I can't decorate much where I'm at now because it's a little tiny travel trailer. I want a big century old Gothic mansion.

I have similar style and while I don't mind pink, I like to mix in red and purple or violet. I'm getting red satin bedsheets soon, I have a fuzzy purple blanket. I want to get red area rugs and cover the windows in black velvet.

I like your decorations in the background. In my last apartment I decorated the whole bathroom in Hello Kitty. I pretended it was a surprise for my ex gf, but it was actually for me.
