My brother Dave taught me a new word.
"About 50% of Americans live within 50 miles of their birthplace. This is called propinquity."
Since I live well beyond the 50 mile radius I told him, "I guess I'm just inpropinquitous!"
Just me, sharing thoughts, photos, quotes, adventures and daily life unless nobody reads it. Then it's just me. Enjoy. Or not.

You are, among other things. I used to be inpropinquitous, but after moving back to Michigan I am very boringly propinquitus.
I'm inpropinquitous, too, as I was born in Eugene, Oregon. But I'm now just 40 miles from where I grew up.
Hey Mary, I'm inpropinquitous, too - that may be the sole reason I moved to Chicago - just so I could be!
I hear that opposites attract :) BTW, I've been called a lot of things but inpropinquitous is not one of them.
i know at least 2 people who live in the house they grew up in. what would you call them?
