However, given that ongoing contact, my two worlds are getting a little too close to colliding.

Hmm... I think I will just leave that one alone.

Welcome marsupial.

Is there a story behind your moniker?

Well my name is Marci and a friend from high school called me marsupial and I figured it went well with danimal.

I grew up in Northern California, BTW. I am trying to nudge danimal back there.

I was raised in Fairfield, currently live in Redding. I have close family still in Vacaville, Sacramento, Concord and Pittsburg. We've got much of Northern California covered. Danimal, listen to your wife. Its a great place to live and raise a family. And heaven knows there is plenty of mental illness here to keep you busy.

I think danimal is smarter than that.

1) close to in-laws is bad
2) it is not Texas
3) it is California

Close to in-laws is all relative. When I worked in Sacramento, it would take me 45 minutes to travel about 10 miles. Living and working in the Bay area could easily double your drive time. So even if you are 25 miles from the in-laws, it may as well be 2 hours, and most would agree that 2 hours is a good buffer.

As it is now, my parents visit 2-3 times a year and stay a week. So, I think a once a month visit for a few hours on a Saturday or a Sunday would be preferred to the current 24-7 in our house for an entire week three weeks out of the year.

Welcome.

I was born in No Cal and have family there and in Southern Oregon. I wouldn't try to live in No Cal these days. Housing prices are through the roof, clouds, and lunar orbit, and there seems to be more than the usual sample of complete crazies there. Maybe that's just the South Bay and Peninsula though.
