   WaffleCheeseposted 14 years ago

   I just wanted to know where everyone is from? All the places we've lived? Who knows? We might have something in common.
   
   I was born in Denver, CO (1981)
   I moved to Evanston, WYO (1986)
   Then I moved to Lakewood, CO (1988)
   Then I moved to Medicine Bow, WYO (1989)
   Then I moved to Murrieta, California (1993)
   Then I moved to Meeteetse, WYO (1998)
   Then I moved to Athens, Greece (2000)
   Then I moved to Nicosa, Cyprus (2002)
   Then I moved to Billings, Montana (2002)
   Then I moved to Provo, UT (2002)
   Then I moved to Arequipa, Peru (2005)
   Then I moved to Boise, ID (2006)
   Then I moved to Provo, UT (2006)
   Then I moved to Orem, UT (2009)
   
   Anyone have anything in common with that?

      Lawrence, Kansas. Brings back a lot of memories of college. No, I didn't go to KU, but I sure as hell got drunk there A LOT. Been to Madison for "Weed-fest". I didn't smoke there, but I watched all my "friends" get blotto on the "funk". Tulsa, OK just makes me think of red dirt.
