There’s been a lot of chatter about my POTENTIAL move in “Cody’s Dungeon” (the shoutbox on my homepage). Remember - it’s not a “done deal”, yet! So I will continue to update this page you’re on as the information and decisions come in.
I thought I would use this blog post to keep everyone informed of what’s going on. For those who don’t know, I’ve had an opportunity to pursue an excellent job opportunity on the central coast of California in San Luis Obispo. Currently, I live just east of Los Angeles where I’m close to all the Southern California action, well surrounded with people and places to go and things to do.
On the weekend of June 5th~7th, I took a trip to San Luis Obispo to see the city, explore the surroundings, gaze at all the young college guys (it’s a college town), and get a sense of the atmosphere. The roads for motorcycling are incredible. They’re the finest I’ve seen in California so far. Beautiful mountain ranges and rolling hills with perfect asphalt and gentle winding roads make this a WET DREAM for any motorcyclist! In short - I like that!
In addition to all that, this time was used to talk with my potential future employer. What none of you know so far is that I have had a strong relationship with these people for many years. They were more than clients of my design firm; we also became great friends over the years. Because of that trust, friendship and close knowledge for each other - this opportunity is unique and advantageous for all of us. We already have a working relationship that greatly helps my ability to move their company forward.
With that said, this weekend was informal, but intended to get clarity on their needs and what I can provide. They want to know how I feel about the area and whether I would be interested in the move up there. I’m admittedly a little uncertain, but change doesn’t happen when you’re sitting still.
My REAL concern isn’t for the people, the job, my abilities, etc., but more along the lines that there seems to be little to no gay action; specifically no gay bars or nightclubs where you could meet other guys. I will be far more cut off from the gay scene if I make this move, but right now, my career and finances have to take priority. Let’s face it, gay guys are everywhere. I’ll probably just have to find another way to connect with them than the traditional L.A. bar hop on a Saturday night. Anyway, like I said, career and finances are a priority.
As things stand right now, Sunday, things look remarkably positive. Because they recognize the complete upheaval of my life here that would occur to make this move out of Southern California, they are going to take the time to think this through and draft a proposal for my move up there. I have every indication right now that this move will be too good to pass up. If I were a betting man, I would say there is an 80% that I’m going up there.
What happens now? I’m busy gutting my apartment, boxing my possessions, and getting prepped for the move. Yes, it’s somewhat premature, but unfortunately, due to my current apartment lease closing soon and aggressive hours at work, I need to be prepared as quickly as I can be because I believe it will be a fast move. The time I’ll have to make this all happen is very limited.
So, potential boyfriends out there, submit your resume and I’ll see if I should get an apartment for two… And if you’re a motorcyclist, this area is golden!

After an in-depth conversation tonight with my future employer, I am now 100% sure I will be moving. We are simply working on details and timelines, but the decision has been made by them and me to pursue this opportunity. I will be gone the weekend of the 19th to search for an apartment and/or commercial space (to do KRX photoshoots). Wish me luck, please. I have no idea how I’m gonna make all this happen. Scared shitless here…

Cody when you get settled in and you find a commercial place, and some remote site I would like to be your first biker slave victim. Yes I mean letting the kid loose on me no mercy, no restraint.

Hello Kid,
SOunds like an exciting new start for you. I don’t know how close or far San Louis Obispo is from LA, but hope that we will still get to meet.
Plans are for me to be in LA the last week of July.
