Its home, but its not...

Like NyNewbie, I too will be leaving the big city for a few days to head back to the rural metropolis of the mighty northern california. Granted, she has to fly like 6 hours and Im driving only 3, but these are two things that neither of us do very often.
Also, like NyNewbie, as wonderful as the city is, there are numerous things I miss about my litte hometown.

Turkey dinner- obvi.
Parking Lots.
Burger Shack. greasy, fatty, goodness.
Olive Garden. Even though I have one not too far away, its only fun when I got with Mom and Dad who pay for it.
My 3.5 acres of land. And clear sky. You dont realize how much you miss it til you're gone.
Java Detour. I love me some drive thru coffee.

Now, just so you dont think Im defecting to Chico, here are some things I will miss about the city while Im gone for 4 days.

starbucks on literally every corner.
Panchos. The most mexican food you can get for 6 bucks.
Muni. I hate you, but man its nice to never have to drive.
my bed and everything it stands for.
tivo.
the two bums that say "Good Morning!" to every pedestrian on Sansome on the way to work. everyday.

ps. im driving to work for the first time ever on Wednesday. wish me luck. i think i forgot how to drive.
