I once went there often as part of a nonprofit job, developed my "favorite" neighborhoods, and even went to far as to marry one of its daughters. Now I don't know if I'm gonna end up there for real, or staying with my most passionate first love, which is turning away its face and turning into a dormitory for billionaires. Is the answer civic polyamory?

I keep hoping that one day we'll be right... which is a sign that perhaps the woozy romantic who began all this crap is a little more alive and kickin' than I'd like to admit.

Exactly what was going through my mind when I read this piece. I slyly laugh inside because I found you here, when I find so much out there disappointing. The person above took my comment.

But oh how many different places have felt this way about? And with each new one I feel like I'm cheating on the others, telling myself, "well no, this one is different. This is the one."
