I want to move to either Portland Maine or Seattle. I mainly picked Seattle because of the food scene down there. I'd rather be living in Maine though.

That sounds very good. Btw, do you also think Karl is an Aspie? He's probably one of my favorite humans on earth. It's his birthday today, I've send my birthday wishes to Ricky since Karl has no Twitter.


I wasn't aware of that until you mentioned it. His round head has been on the planet for 40 years now. Wonder if he would now be considered too old to go back to his paper round job. I don't think hes on the spectrum though, I think he is just a big grouch!


He does appear to have a lot of aspie traits in my eyes.

I would like to live in a large underground bunker with rather capacious rooms. Something about being underground and being in a well-fortified structure brings about a virtually indescribable sense of calm/comfort. You cannot be distracted by the sounds of the vast hordes above ground, the busy hum of traffic and the intense glare of sunlight: it's just you and the all-encompassing security of the concrete walls and the massive blast doors.

You would leave your bunker for a walk, right? Your body needs sunlight.

There is something trippy about living in the desert you know.

A few of the places I have always wanted to live include a few hours from London and then on weekends visit London and see a play, etc. Or I have always wanted to live in New Mexico or Arizona or it would be enjoyable to live in various places in Europe for a few months at a time.

Only on the occasional food-run and to show up to work. Currently, I do not get any more exposure to the sun than that.

Hope you take vitamins with vitamin D and also fresh air for 20 to 30 minutes per day can help lower stress.

Yes, it is indeed more important than most people think.

I would pick anywhere with mountains. * I'm talking mountains that are 10,000 feet or taller. *

Telluride, Colorado is a good choice for me. Unfortunatly, living there is pretty expensive :cry: here's a picture of downtown though. Image

The only vitamins I take are what is already in my food (I'm not one for taking pills or anything of the like) and I'm not one to feel stress (add to the fact that being underground is calming for me to begin with). The only effects I have from such little sun exposure is an unnatural pallor (that avatar of me is actually a pretty accurate portrayal of my skin color).
