I live in the Midwest - ask me something!

[ZombieNixon]

I live in this amazing, multi-cultural city which is loads of fun and educational as well. I'm also hiding out from my parents, who don't live here (waaah!) So be kind and ask thoughtful questions!

1. Amazing cities in the Midwest? Didn't know they existed.

I'm from the Midwest ..... and have only lived on the coasts ever since!

[ZombieNixon]

7. I've lived in the Washington, DC suburbs,

Fundiehell, New Mexico and now Chicago. I'll take Chicago any day.

[kwassa]

17. actually, I like the DC suburbs, where I live now

lots of diversity and interesting things in this area, too!

though Los Angeles, where I lived before, is pretty unbeatable.

Chicago weather really sucks.

15. I believe there's supposed to be one, but I've never been there.

Not sure where it is, anyway.

14. I grew up just north of there

and the town I lived in had a decent size Hispanic population back in the eighties. In my town you were either Hispanic, Italian or Irish(unless your family was from further north-then you were German).

4. Are your parents living in an unamazing mono-cultural city?

Is that why you hide?

[ZombieNixon]

6. Actually, yes.

5. How do you deal with tornadoes

Here in the East they're SMALL and RARE.

Saw my first green sky outside Detroit airport and was scared out of my mind.

Also got chased by tornado clouds once outside Minneapolis (I was interrupted in the middle of a meeting and told the meeting place was closing and they had ordered me a cab and we all had to leave immediately -- that was nerve wracking!)

[ZombieNixon]

10. I've never experienced one,

but then, I've only been here since September.

[xmas74]

16. I grew up north of there and

I never saw a tornado until I moved to Missouri. Not very common in that area(though they do happen).
