Re: Why did I come here?
The song is called Once in a Lifetime, and it is the best description of what it's like to suddenly "wake up" in a foreign country!
I love it!
I love it!
Yes, it's a good one
I'm humming it now!

If you're in Marin you will be fine - just stay oot the City 
And welcome to the hood
And welcome to the hood
Last night was one of those moments when you stop and think was this a good idea?
I am superdelighted to be reunited with the wife and all is good but last night we went to earthquake 'preparedness' training. "Get ready Marin!"
Was slightly surreal to sit and listen to but then you do have to say it is a very real threat.
I am not shopping for plane fares so I am going to stay. I am actually going to be shopping for all the things on the list for my 'Go pack and Go List' etc etc
Has anyone else had a moment when the reality of where they have moved to (that you always knew existed eg. hurricanes in Florida) was brought into sharp focus for you?
Roll on SSN and Greencard delivery!
Mayhem.
