Re: Your favorite city, and why.

I'm biased, but Washington D.C. is the greatest city. I've lived in L.A., lived in San Diego, travelled abroad and there's no place like home.

D.C. has everything. Character, history, musuems, diversity, politics, sports, and yes, even crime! Adams Morgan, Georgetown, Cleveland Park, Dupont Circle, The Hill, Spring Valley, Uptown and Downtown.

I love the creeps on the Metro that refuse to stand to the right, I love Cherry Blossoms in the spring, and even those muggy August summer days.

I appreciate DC more now that I'm away, but I needed a change from there.

Why do I appreciate more, or why did I need a change?

Well, at the time I moved I had some personal shit going on that I kind of wanted to get away from.

But mainly I just like change. I mean like I'll never buy the same cereal two times in a row, or toothpaste, soap, what have you. It's a quirk of mine. I'm loyal to a lot of things (football, family, friends), but in other cases I just get bored too easily with the same old same old.

I think it's done me good to be somewhere new for the past year.

That's interesting. Are you getting the itch to move away from conn?
Are there enough soaps / toothpaste / cereal to go around where you don't have to buy one you have already had?

I get that. I grew up there. Although, I have not lived there in a long time and have lived many other places since. There is....a......certain buzz about D.C. It's all the things you mentioned, and maybe because it's the most powerful city on earth?
