Where I’ve Lived in the US

I was playing around with Google maps, plotting out all of the places I’ve lived in my life (29 different homes, apartments, condos, barracks, or dorms in the US).

We moved a lot as a kid. Nearly every year. Mostly we hopped from one shoddy apartment complex to another when I was a kid.

I’ve only lived in 3 different homes in the last 12 years, though. Which means I lived in 26 different homes during the previous 27 years. Yikes.

Here’s what my Places I’ve Lived map looks like:

Looks like you were at Ft. Riley?

You should have stayed in New England and recieved a stable upbringing!

Yep, that would be Ft. Riley all right.

Just ’cause we moved a lot, don’t let that confuse you with instability.

We always had a place to live, always had plenty of food, always had clean and decent clothes to wear, always made it school, and always had plenty of love.

I wouldn’t change my childhood and my upbringing for the life of me.

Besides, I was 23 years old when I lived at Ft. Devens, MA.

Why did you name your blog Urbangrounds?

Left by Nazar on July 25th, 2007 at 10:00 pm

I really didn’t pick it — my wife has owned this domain name (along with urbanground.com) since 2000.

When I started my first web site, an online journal to chronicle my marathon canoe racing exploits, I just “borrowed” one of her domain names (since it was already paid for and not being used).

When I decided to start blogging, I just kept the domain name.

So, it doesn’t really mean anything.

I’ve thought about changing it…but it’s such a long held and established domain, which is a big factor in Google page ranking.
