Hometown Meme
Feb. 10th, 2005 09:17 amThink about what cities or towns you've lived in (not just visited) in your life, and post them in your journal:
Des Moines, IA (9 years, 5 locations at least)
Rock Island, IL (6 years, 2 locations)
Davenport, IA (3 years)
Iowa City, IA (2.5 years, 3 locations)
Phoenix, AZ (1 year, 3 locations)
Heh. Okay, so I claim Davenport as my hometown even though I spent three times as much time in Des Moines and twice as much time in Rock Island (which isn't even Iowa, technically), but my best and least completely embarassing/painful memories of pre-adult life come from Davenport.
Boy, I sure do move a lot. 14 locations in just under 22 years (five more days...). Longest I ever lived in one place was the five and a half years at the house on 23rd St in Rock Island... Shortest I ever lived in one place was the month I crashed at Mom's before getting my own place here in Phoenix.
