I moved to the Phila area a while ago now for a job in City and Regional Planning. I live in the near west suburbs (so near in fact they are a lot less suburban than places like Chestnut Hill or the North East). I just bought a house not to long ago while the getting was good and am feeling a little too adult about it sometimes. I'm pretty anti-car (a sometimes militant pedestrian). I am also well known for my ability to pick apart advertising and modern culture. It tends to wear thin after not too long, especially on road trips where I read every billboard and sign I find hilarious.
