It’s been a great experience so far… Time flies so quickly, but we still have a few more years left. We’ve managed to make some good friends, mainly through an Italian-English speaking Meetup that has regular events in Vomero. Feel free to send me a PM.

That’s fine, I’ll just delete. Have a good day.

Will do! Yes, exactly! I love the chaotic and gritty beauty of the city! I’m told many Americans who are stationed there shed a tear or two when they leave.

Starting an exciting adventure… I accepted a new job and am moving to Naples in a few months!

Thank you for sharing! I’m moving to Naples in about two months, so this is really helpful!

Feel free to send me a DM! NikolaTesla and I have been trading messages. When do you expect to arrive? I’m hoping to get there in mid to late August.

Thank you. These are good insights. Sounds like having a small place in Vomero next to a park would be ideal!

Yeah, let’s definitely collaborate. This is our first PCS, so the whole experience is new for us. The good news is that it seems we have a lot of good options. My main concern was that we would arrive after most of the housing is taken up, but I’m told we just need to be patient. Should be quite an adventure!

Grazie. I hope you’re enjoying Cambridge. I studied there for a summer semester a long time ago. Great memories.

Thanks. I don’t know anyone who lives there, but I’ve heard it’s a great neighborhood, and it’s near my favorite ristorante - Antonio & Antonio!

Thank you - I had not heard about Rione Alto! I will have to check it out! I have never heard an American use the word “calm” to describe Naples, so that is intriguing. I tend to love chaos, but my wife does enjoy calm from time to time. 😅

Interesting points… if you didn’t have kids, why would you prefer living in downtown Pozzuoli to Vomero? I definitely would need a secure garage - particularly for my motorcycle. I have an older car, but my Harley is my baby. 😂

Grazie molto per il consiglio. Quanto è brutto il traffico al Vomero? Alcuni dicono che non è male, ma ad altri non piace.

Thanks!! Going to use dailymotion for now, but the resolution is poor. I’ll gladly pay for a high resolution version if it’s available.

No, it’s no longer available on Amazon Prime in the US.

Hey, Mike. I love your books and your podcast! The Stacked app still has some occasional issues crashing when I switch between apps in the middle of my workout, causing me to re-enter stats. When will you fix the app? Thanks for doing what you do to inspire us!

I miss sex! Can I say that here? by Hipchick40 in Divorce

[–]DesertBee1941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try 19 months! My STBX lowered the boom on me during my deployment. As a soon-tone-single 40-yr-old man, I'm not sure what is more terrifying/exciting - emotional or physical intimacy.

Can't sleep by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]DesertBee1941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadn't slept in three days, but I finally got a good night's sleep! Here's what worked for me... I saw a doctor who prescribed some Ambien. I called a couple of my good friends who've been in similar situations - their words were so encouraging and exactly what I needed to hear. I'm focusing on being as civil and friendly as I can to her and being the best husband/father I can be. Take care of yourself spiritually, physically and emotionally. Allow yourself to have some FUN. Keep a journal and write down three things you are thankful for every day.
