Before we moved here, “big city” to us meant 100,000 or more. Now it means over a million.
When we moved here, it was meant to be temporary. For over ten years, we held onto the notion that we would be moving back to a little town in northern California to finish our careers and lives.
Then one day, we woke up and realized we couldn’t – and didn’t want to – leave. We are now fully addicted to the cornucopia of activities and shopping choices here. We would go absolutely nuts in a town that rolls up the sidewalks at night.
So we are now fully converted San Diegans. And happy to be here.
PS – while I’ll take money over having no money, either is fine. The best things in life are free: family, sex, fresh air, sunshine, playing catch with the dog. Depending on my mood, not necessarily in that order.
