[the gist - not the exact words, but basically this is what went down]
Him: So how's the snow? We didn't get too much here in Richmond [Virginia]
Me: Snow? I don't know what this "snow" is you speak of... I only see it when I go skiing in Tahoe
Him: Wait, where exactly are you?
Me: Santa Cruz... like I have been since 2006... well except for that year in 2007-2008 when I lived in Taipei. Oh! and I'm moving to Berlin in July, then going to China for research sometime in September most likely.
Him: Don't you ever stay in one place? Research in China, what's that about? Wow
Me: For the dissertation research I need to go to China
Him: Wow... cool. And Berlin?
Me: Oh, my partner and I live in an apartment near the center, great location! You should come visit!
Him: Wait, you already live there? I don't understand
Me: I lived there all last summer with my partner, it's our home. So yeah I live here and I live there... and in China next year
