Good! I was worried you might have stepped on one of those hypodermics and got some tainted heroin or something.
I have a cousin who was a mid-level King County Sheriff's Detective. Retired at her first opportunity. She not only retired, she got the hell out of state.
Don't worry, half the country is like that now. I don't think you can have that type of crap going on in your motherland when 3/4 of the year, you're under a foot of ice and everybody repeats the first letter of the alphabet, eh?
How have you acclimated otherwise?
Apologies
@sean92008 I just caught this.
Acclimated? Honestly there really wasn't that much to acclimate to. The obvious things like a new address, phone numbers ETC. Same quality of life. Food prices are abOOT the same and so is gas. Booze and beer is considerably less pricey by about 30-40 %. Good thing I'm not a drunk. Yet
I do like it here, don't get me wrong but I'm hoping that this is not our last stop. Not sure I want to expire in WA.
I miss my old landline number that I had for 25 years - (250) 564 8564. 564 twice with an 8 in the middle
My business number was like that too.
Here is something I'll bitch about. The builder/developer of this brand new street with all it's 16-19 house named the street after A STREET THAT ALREADY EXISTS IN THE SAME FUCKING TOWN!! Fuck sakes! There are now TWO 125th streets in Marysville WA and mine does not yet show up on g'oogle maps, GPS ETC so ordering a pizza, whatever, is not an option as the little delivery snots go directly to the old (original) 125th street
I guess we're like an extension of the same 125th. Will take up to 8 or so months before we are recognized by the food delivery community but at least amazon and US mail come here.
The fucker couldn't have given the street a nice name like Happy Day Place, Rainbow Place, Vera Place...

PS I miss my old credit card number too. 5150 5000 5105 5@*#
