I totally get the "comforts of home" thing when I return from long gatherings. At least Brushwood has more flush toilets now, so those things are less of a novelty. But lying in a bed that's not directly on the ground in a room where the walls don't flutter in the wind and not having to worry about being awakened at an insane hour of the morning because one's room has turned into a sauna are all astonishing things after a week spent tenting in a field. :)
