Went to visit friends in the 'burbs today. I had a nice time, but DH and I agreed that from now on, we will have a no visit to the 'burbs policy unless it's to visit family or some sort of very special occasion. It's official, we've become crazy city people. But both of our kids get vomity car sick, we have to rent a car and put in the car seats each time, and getting out of Brooklyn is such a hassle in the car. It's such a stress.

The thing that makes me crazy is that most of them were friends who moved out of the city. And now they expect us to come visit them all the time. I feel like, okay, I've seen your new digs, now leave me alone. That sounds much crueler than I mean it to sound, but darn it, they are the ones who chose to leave, why should I have to schlep now?

That's too bad. You will miss out on a lot of nice road trips then. [ Reply | More ]

If your kids (and me, too, actually) suffered from serious motion sickness, you would know that there is no such thing as a nice road trip. [ Reply | More ]

We almost did take the train, but it would have been 45 mins to Penn Station, then another hour to their train station, then they'd have to pick us up and 15 mins to their house. Too much of a PITA for everyone. [ Reply | More ]
