That's fair. Sometimes I think having a family just flips a bit in our brains -- like that whole Larry Niven thing about the Pak Protectors lol. And you're right, I was being a bit unfair about the noodles ;)

For myself I've always been a person of quiet habits. I love visiting the big city and taking in the vibrancy and life (museums! concerts!), but, boy oh boy, the older I get, the more I like to come back to my small/medium-sized city. But there are people who literally live in the middle of nowhere and seem to be just fine. Who knows? The world is mysterious and complex.

Thanks for the reply.

Agreed, having a family I think changes just about everything for a lot (most?) of people. Eh I started it by being dramatic with the blowing brains out joke :)

I can see where you're coming from, and most of my friends are the same way. They would never want to live in a place like NYC, it's just too crazy and they want their space. Not that that's your exact reasoning, but I get it for some people
