Small town feeling

It's funny living in the city. We live in the DC metro area, which is quite interesting. Sometimes it's fun, other times, not so fun.

I love the feeling of being in a small town in the middle of all this mess. For example, when I go to the post office, there are a couple of ladies in there that know me. One in particular knows about when I come in every month to get money orders and stamps. She remembers that I recently mailed out Wedding invitations. She remembers James from the very few times he has come in. It's great. Sometimes I feel like there can be no personal service from anywhere in a place this greatly populated, and then I get surprised. There aren't many places that I frequent like that, but it's nice when they can call you by name.
