big little world

I really like being a country-girl transplant to a city. It's hard to explain how substantially I think it influences my perception of things, but on comparing notes with other people who similarly grew up in small towns and now live in cities, there's a commonality that I think is rooted in that experience.

And there are funny and wonderful pleasures associated from being from the middle of nowhere. For example, today I ordered some electronics online and on receiving the order confirmation, I noticed the vendor is located in Bozeman, MT. My first thought, on seeing that, was to email them and say, "Hi, neighbor! I love Bozeman!"

Then middle of nowhere misses you!
