A Fresh Start

The last week and a half has been the most hectic I've had in a very long time. My girlfriend and I recently moved into our new apartment in Charlotte, just a few days after I had a terrible little episode of pneumonia. However, I made a full recovery and we were able to move in on our scheduled date, which went as smoothly as I imagined it would.
But what about all of this free time? I hadn't planned on having so much time to do nothing at all. I don't know anyone else who lives in this new city, and I don't know what there is to do. I'm sure this new place can't be THAT different than the place I grew up; the people here must like the same things and eat same food and live the same lives. If that's the case, then why is it so difficult to simply find something to do?
It seems like Charlotte tries harder in terms of presentation than Raleigh. This is only a first impression, and may be a completely wrong assumption. I'm excited to get used to living here and develop new routines and favorite places. With all of this new free time, I may just have to catch up on the reading that I've put off for the past few months.
