wahhh?

if this is an interpretation of my life, i'm not sure it's correct.

we came to new mexico for work/financial reasons-- gentrification was killing our chances in dc and we wanted no boss.

we were stuck in a rural place for 2 years while we got our shit together. now we're leaving!

anyway, i don't mind moving-- i've moved all my life. it's exciting.

while i was growing up we lived in 12 different places during the first 12 years of my parents' marriage. 12 houses & apartments, 2 countries, 3 different cities.

as my dad likes to say, if everyone would stay in the same place we'd all be stuck in africa.
