LAS CRUCES, NM????

Duuuuuuuuude. I drive through there every time I go to see the folks in Tucson. Lovely little city, but given the arts and politics answers I gave, I'm very surprised.

Let me just say, that is not the impression given by the view from I-10.

Yes I am.

Glad to hear. I dunno where the moritorium against complaining about being broke happened. I think that's still okay. I make decent money, but don't have as much as I'd like for stuff like say, flying to California, because I spend it as soon as it comes in. But y'know, probs o ye first worlde.

Also, I mercilessly tagged you, without so much as a by your leave, but only because the line CRACKED. ME. UP.

No leave of me required. I was snickering through the oatmeal discussion, feeling the need to defend the national dish, then the light bulb went off.

My first few were all in the Boston area, which I've never even considered. And then? Milwaukee, Chicago, D.C. Heh.

My areas were Seattle, Denver, Salt Lake, and Portland. I could live in all those places, I think.

Gud, I am sorry things are so hard with you and your dw. Much hope for some healing and health. Are you (just you) getting any counseling? You maybe need a safe and healthy place to vent (counselor, pastor, close friend), that wouldn't feel like a betrayal of your marriage.

I can't even imagine how exhausting your schedule is. My dh does a lot, but not that much, and I know how beat he is (and I am beat, too). There needs to be a little you time (and hopefully some you and dw time). Can you start taking a lunch break, during the day? You're gonna work yourself to death.

Mr. H and I managed to get the whole house clean this week by basically having a niceness war. We're never really home to work out chores, so a lot of times things dont' get done. This was the exact opposite. I'd picked up a couple of rooms, and he thought, "How nice! I'll do the dishes and clean the kitchen for her." When I got home and saw that the dishes were done, I thought I'd wash some clothes for him. He retaliated by folding the clothes, so I cleaned the bedroom to show him I could be just as nice. I got home yesterday to find him on his knees in the bathroom scrubbing.

Heather, by my calculations, you win.

Hee. Well, I was going to offer to pick some things up from the store and make dinner tonight (when I thought we'd have company and they'd be in the garage all night).

I think last time I did Find Your Spot, it came up wtih all sorts of random small towns I'd not really consider living in.

This time, it came up with: Portland, Baltimore, Little Rock (I think Arkansas MUST pay for shit--no WAY there's a big gay community there--Matt?), Sacramento (??must be the weather) and DC. Hee.

Those were all in my top six. Let's go live together.

I missed this find your spot thing. Where is it?
