Seconded. When I left my parents home, it was only to mve a few miles down the road and I still came to eat every Sunday dinner with them, so it wasn't a big deal to them.
When I picked up and moved to Alaska the hardest part about the entire event was not ging into unknown territory with nothing more than the belongings packed on my truck and no prospects upon arrival; it was the final goodbye the morning I left. It's hard to feel manly and adventurous when you have to keep wiping your eyes while you're driving. Fortunately, the tear works dried up after a few miles and I didn't run over any stop signs before it did.
Every move I've made since I came back from AK has placed me within 5 hours of their home so they know I'm not "that far" and it doesn't seem to bother them.
Another whole topic: Anyone been to Riverside, CA? If so, what's the place like?
