Mine's pretty boring.
2011. Me, a dog and a cat, in a two-bedroom house in the "South of Laurel" neighborhood in Santa Cruz.
2001. Me, the nice fellow, a 22-year-old son, a 14 year-old daughter, a dog and a two cats (different dog, but one of the cats was the same), in a three-bedroom house in Santa Cruz. The same house.
1991. Me, the nice fellow, a 12-year-old son, a 4 year-old daughter, a cat(the older of those same two cats), in the same house. One of the bedrooms is in a different part of the house than in 1981.
1981. Me, the nice fellow, two year-old child, a roommate I couldn't stand and her wonderful three year-old daughter, in the same house.
1971. Me, the nice fellow, and a shifting collection of roommates one to three at a time, in a three-bedroom house on the East Side of Santa Cruz.
1961. Before or after September? Before: Me, my father, my mother, my brother, two dogs, in a three-bedroom house on the downhill side of a weird little street in El Sobrante, California. After: Me, my father, my mother, my brother, one dog, in an eleven-room house in Powellton Village, a transitional neighborhood between University City and Mantua, in Philadelphia.
1951: not born for two more years.
What doesn't show, of course is the years I lived in San Francisco, the summer I lived in Pine Ridge, the year on campus, or any of the houses I lived in in Santa Cruz before 1971 and between 1971 and 1977, or the first two years of my life which were mostly spent in an apartment in Berkeley.
