17 years in the SF Bay Area.
17 years ago, I arrived back in the Bay Area after traveling around the country visiting friends and family.
At every stop in that journey, no matter the job opportunities or who was there, there was always the thought that the SF Bay Area was where I belonged.
There have been ups and downs,
good times and bad,
met the soul mate I never expected to find,
had jobs that sucked and jobs that were wonderful,
bought a house,
bought my first brand new car then did it 2 more times,
and somewhere along the line I became a grown-up.
But I have never regretted the decision to move here and stay.

I have lived all over the US and never felt like "home" until now.
I know we really dont know each other but I am very happy you decided to stay here.
(Understand the grown up thing but as feel I can let the child in me out here and I dont feel bad doing it)

I know what you mean, SF is the best place I've ever lived.

But I have to say something about that SCREAMIN' Coool Rocket!
I LOVE it! I just scored a bunch of books on retro 30's,40's rocket designs for research on some new designs for Worldcon, and your icon is c'est chic!
