Having gone to Kingman and back several times now it’s interesting to see how people act towards you when you show up after having been gone for several months.
1st time, like you never left. You chat life is ok
2nd time you return, People are more chatty…. folks offer to buy you food and/or alcohol and they aren’t related to you.
3rd times + (and after 6 months)– where the hell have you been and how have you been doing? You moved? holy shit your kidding! Where too? What are you doing ? Are you married?
The constant barrage of questions…. It’s different but it’s just a fact of life coming from a small town.
Of course it is heart warming to know that the girl scout troop that is in my old neighborhood was sad to see me go… Mainly because I bought so many cookie’s.
Now for phase two of my world domination plan… yoda at his wisest.
