I live in Missouri as well - so you are not completely alone I guess. :D

I live in Kansas City so it might be a little better than where you were (if you're from LA or NYC then most likely not enough for you to notice though lol) - we at least have sports teams, a nice downtown district and some nice lakes close by to hang out at. Really though, if you're anywhere outside of KC or STL "Misery" is a pretty accurate description. :D

Kind of a blah picture of me, but wanted to give you something instead of just lurking through the thread. <3
There's nothing wrong with lurking this thread. I do it and I'm never posting mine haha
