Well, hate to say it, but if you aren't willing to relocate, your only real shot at learning Japanese is either to use Skype to chat online or to move to another city/country. You're 24, so you don't have many more real shots at learning the language left. In the US, the only opportunities to learn Japanese are either to grow up Japanese, live near Japanese people, or study it in college.

Great... now I feel old. I also don't have the cash to relocate like that though my intuition tells me that moving to japan like that in my current state would be shooting myself in the foot. I wouldn't know how to establish myself there without knowing the language and my graphic design skills are very amateurish, too much so to get a job there with that skill.
I've looked up Japanese language classes in the area and the nearest place is still Boston. This just makes me hate this area even more....
