I've noticed something of an ebb and flow during my recent moves. See if you can spot the trend.
Me in 2006: "I'm moving to La Grande, Oregon." Other person: "Where?"
Me in 2007: "I'm moving to Hawaii." Other person: "Cool!"
Me in 2008: "I'm moving to Jakarta." Other person: "Where?"
Me in 2010: "I'm moving to Beijing." Other person: "Cool!"
Me in 2013: "I'm moving to Abu Dhabi." Other person: "Where?"
Me in 2015: "I'm moving to Tokyo." Other person: "Cool!"
If I had any sense, I'd find somewhere to put down roots and start establishing a life as something other than a leaf on the wind. Circumstances and my own limitations, however, seem determined to keep that from happening.
