Just to narrow down the location some more, "Arlandria" usually refers to a specific neighborhood area around the border between Arlington and Alexandria.
The first thing I thought of when I heard the song was this older song "Headwires," where he mentions the name in the end of the song:

I also felt like there might be some David Bowie references with both "station to station" and him explicitly saying "fame." It's implied that he's stressed about life, and it's obvious that he's famous, so I don't know if it would be necessary unless it was a reference. On the other hand, it seems like an intentionally simple and stream-of-consciousness kind of song.
It sounds to me like the kind of arguments couples in a marriage or long term relationship might have.
This should link to an MTV video where he says all those things about living in Virginia: http://www.mtv.com/videos/news/630980/dave-grohl-always-goes-back-to-virginia.jhtml#id=1659540
