I've been thinking about
navrins' recent note about how living in New York City is exciting (except now I can't find that post, so I will merely claim it was him without real justification). Every day on the walk to the subway station, he'll see ten things that would be conversation topics in just about any smaller town, but since he's in NYC, they are par for the course.
Yes. I occasionally have sentimental jags of missing New York City (differently so than for Boston, which I miss more for the people than the city itself).
I also expect that if and when we ever move from here, I will miss this town at least as much, in still different ways.
This morning on my bike commute, I saw a blue heron, yet another Smart fortwo car (this one was grey), and a particularly polite pedestrian. Not one person tried to kill me, sell me anything, or curse my existance for being in their way. And none of these were particularly unusual.
