It’s funny. Living here takes a bit of adjustment. It is so laid back and everyone is sooooo shallow. Especially the women. Ok, the gays are more shallow then them, but we are all fairly all about restaurants, cool shirts, parties, getting together for socializing, wineries, drinking wine, happy hours, hanging out, laughing, vacationing, traveling, going to the theater to see events, art shows, buying art, getting together for more drinks, and planning dinners for getting together to plan more stuff. Everyone has a built in pool, a gardener, a house keeper, and we don‘t seem to have enough time to fit any real work shit in that seems to matter to the rest of the country. Did I mention the 350 days of clear cloudless skies in a place surrounded by beautiful pristine mountains in every direction. I ride my motorcycle about 340 days a year and almost never with a jacket on unless I leave the desert. No traffic, little crime, and some fairly hefty levels of prosperity.
