I wanted and expected to be excited. I was a little bit when I first got offered the interview. My heart wasn't in it leaving the interview or when they offered me the job though.

It was more about the job not being what I am really looking for than Charlotte not being a good fit. I like Charlotte a lot. But with a home that I have barely owned for a year here and all of my friends and family here; it would take one hell of a job to get me to move. I was exploring other options because I do think I need a change...but that job/relocation at this time wasn't it.

I am premeditating being in the same quandary soon as well, and too think if the CLT option were to materialize that I'd have mixed feelings about the move.

I'm afraid to do it.
My brother learned that he is high in the 90's percentile for Neanderthal DNA...
Truly, he did.


And, I am willing to not let him forget it.

Random thought of the day, 'Mattress Firm'.

The area is surely being stuffed with them.
One seems to spring open daily.
I am truly Firm in this comment that 1 per block is allot.
Has this subject come up during Pillow talk?
No question a Mattress is better then the alternative.
The alternative does Not hold sheets at all.
As I was once told a bed without sheets is only Mattress.
A Box Spring without a Mattress is really hard to sleep on.
So keep the Firm Mattress's coming to keep us from sleeping on Box Springs!

Happy Monday.

I just found the La Grange, KY live streaming cam on Youtube. It's the small
things in life that make me happy!

Anyone know what they plan to do with the newly cleared area on Wake Forest Rd next to Mami Nora's?

About 10 of us turned out.

Be the organizer, and you get to call time, date, location!
Might have to be soon, no idea if we'll be here in a few months.
Rally Point is a good location for me
