My husband took a longish walk today on his way to the subway, to make up for not going to gym, I think.

He passed my childhood home, which is in this neighborhood. I lived there for ten years, from ages 3 to 13.

It's for sale. And we're talking about buying a house.

I have pretty good memories of that place. It's where I first learned to love Alcott and Bronte; it's also where I first learned to love science fiction and comic books.

And it's been renovated a few times since, so while it would be weirdly familiar, I'm sure my old bedroom isn't pink anymore. It's been. We moved out in 1976. So. 28 years. Long time.

On the other hand - okay. It would be big time weird to sleep in my parents' bedroom. :)
