You probably know I am Irish, born and bred. I live in the same county I was born.

But I would love to live in America; I wonder if the reality would live up to the dream? Would anybody adopt me and my zoo? I don''t take up much space

.

I would, but hubby hate cats. *gasp*

I think you''d be a hoot to be around. You have a wicked sense of humor.

I''m from southern IL.

Awh...mwuah! Thank you Ellen, from you it is a compliment indeed!

What was your exact address again? (Quietly takes suitcase down from wardrobe and books airline tickets...

)

Maisie, get packing...we will pick up your rock on the way.

Ellen, we're a-coming!

ETA: There is just the little matter of your EXACT address?

 

[Maisie]

We don''t need her exact address.. we can just follow the gorgeous blue light from her perfect Aqua. It will be a bit like the 3 kings following the star looking for the baby Jesus.

I'm in WA state. . .near Seattle.

I've been watching the first season of "the 4400" which takes place here. It's so fun to watch shows meant to take place here, but an annoyance was one of the cities was spelled incorrectly. . .Bellevue was spelled Bellview!

 

[sba771]

I love these! I grew up in Philly, The Main Line if you will. Went to school in Chicago, moved to Brooklyn Heights (was so sad to leave) and have now ended up in Frankfurt, Germany.

I will end up in Long Island though. I love the suburbs and look forward to driving around in a Volvo. I am weird.

I''m from smack dab in the middle of Dallas Fort Worth. I loved it there.

?

Chicago area girl born, raised and still here to this day. Winters here are really starting to get to us though so we are looking at winter homes down in the Fort Myers, FL area. We''re going down tomorrow and are booked Monday and Tuesday to go out looking at houses. It''s my hubby''s dream to watch Bears games sitting on a floatie in the pool.

Steel - I had no idea you were Irish!

And I like zoos if it doesn't work out with the other PS'ers here!

Lovethemstrawberries, I LOVE NC. I actually almost went to UNC Wilmington but changed my mind at the last minute. NC reminds me a lot of GA because the people are so friendly and of course the yummy southern food!

Wow that''s nice to hear people liking NC! Yeah I love the South. I think I''d have a really hard time leaving it for good if someone made me. I love the people (mostly

), the different seasons, the scenery, the fact that I can be in the metro and then in the boondocks within 30 minutes if I want. I love it here.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA.

I currently live in Morgantown, WV. Surprisingly, its the town with the lowest unemployment rate in the country! I do not like where I live; the town is completely geared towards the university (as it should be). The town has nothing to offer to young professionals (no good local rest. and good local rest., or very few). Plus, the pay in WC is AWFUL for what I do)

FI and I are looking to moving (soon after our Oct ''09 wedding). We have looked at Asheville, NC and Portland, ME.

Asheville, Asheville, Asheville!! You''d absolutely love NC. Asheville is a beautiful place. I assume WV has mountains where you live, but the NC mountains are absolutely gorgeous in the fall.

I''m from Nashville. After a six year stint on the west coast, I now live in Atlanta and have been here for a couple years. I LOVE Atlanta. I love that it''s only winter for three weeks at a time, with warm days in between and that it only lasts a couple of months all together. I love that the cost of living is so much lower than it was on the west coast and I love that I am so much closer distance wise to my family now. I love that I have acres of wonderful local restaurants in my neighborhood to choose from and finding a chain restaurant is actually difficult.

I DO NOT love the boiling hot summers, but that''s why they invented air conditioning. I don''t love the traffic when I get stuck in it, but I live ''in town'' and home office, so those occasions are pretty rare.

That''s great you live in town and have such easy access! Yeah Atlanta traffic is HORRIBLE (x1000!!!) I''ve been there many times. It''s an awesome city. I loved the MARTA.

The hot summers are indeed sweltering. Hehe always get the AC inspected before the heat comes!
