Things I don’t think of as weird anymore:
- Hitchhikers. I rarely saw hitchhikers on the east coast, but since we came out here, I see them everywhere (including one today).
- I nodded hello to the turkey when I got out of the car after my riding lesson and then threatened to smack him with the broom if he poops on our porch again (today). Mixed messages, I know.
- Train whistles at all hours of the day and night (including as I was typing this just now).
- The smell of pot that appears EVERYWHERE and at random times (like on my walk back from a yoga class today).
I probably wouldn’t have thought to even mention any of that, except I had a conversation today with a coworker about where we live now and wow, that must be different, and hey, is everybody high all the time? Differences were on my mind.

How are you guys doing with the snow? Heard you got whacked

We had snow over the weekend, but nothing the last couple of days. Portland got dumped on, though. They’re a good 90 minutes north of us. They can keep their snow.

The turkey is STILL THERE? Talk about overstaying one’s welcome.
