For the past 6 years, I’ve moved to new cities every 2 years. Not for any particular reason, it was just time for a change. My family thinks I’m nuts. I just moved to Denver in Feb, and when people here ask me why, my standard answer is “It was time for a move, and I love Denver. So here I am!”
I’ve reconnected with tons of hs and college friends thanks to fb, and I’m amazed at how many of them are right where I last saw them.

I moved from Massachusetts to Kentucky for a number of the usual reasons (new job, divorce) but I like to say I was suffering from the Monty Python Syndrome–it was time for something “completely different.”

I’ve always followed the jobs, moving-wise, and I had the pleasure of calling Chapel Hill home for 6 months during a college internship. No “splainin” needed for me–it’s lovely! Hope you have a wonderful time living there.

@PastaQueen – And upon further reflection, my tiredness might also have to do with the whole “no caffeine” think my doctor has me on.

@Ariella – @Merry – Aw, you are sweet to miss me. I’m just tired, y’all. Not of life or the blog or anything, just literally tired. It’s the chronic pain thing. I promise to write something eventually.

@Ariella – I think PQ is probably off having a fascinating time exploring her new world.
Either that or she just doesn’t like us any more :(

This isn’t really a comment about this post, but I didn’t know where else to say this:

PQ– I totally applaud your decision to make your blog work for you, and not post out of any sense of obligation.

That said, I really miss my more-frequent dose of witty and fresh insights about the world, through your awesomely unique way of looking at things.

Just wanted to say so.

I think you should tell everyone that your celebrity status in Indiana was just too much to handle (what with the stalkers and paparazzi), so you’ve moved to a quite town where you’d expect people to respect your privacy ;)

The most interesting move I ever made occurred because I closed my eyes and pointed somewhere on a map.

It was somewhere I’d never been before, but what the hell… On the day I arrived to “check the place out” I ended up finding a job and buying a house.

I don’t live in that city anymore, but I wouldn’t trade that experience for anything. In my opinion, real life is interesting… “normal” is, well, boringly normal.
