Gall Stones and Armadillo
After 3 days on the couch, I have decided to come back to work. Granted, I am not totally well. But, I couldn't stand sitting there anymore. I have also convinced myself that I have Gall Stones. This may or may not be true. I have a pain on the upper right side of my abdomen. Since I have had plenty of time on my hands, I have researched gall stones. The symptoms can be applied to my mystery disease. I am just hoping the pain will go away. I'm going to give it a week. I will be really pissed if I have to deal with yet another sickness. geez.
So...Mandy was offered the job here. She told the guy at Arena (and me) she needed a couple days to think about it. That was Wednesday. So, I am hoping to hear from her today. You may be thinking, why would anyone turn down a job in DC to go to Houston. My thoughts exactly. However, I guess Mandy is a little torn since she already signed a contract for the theatre in Houston. And, she's the type of person that would want to follow through on her commitment, even if it meant sacrificing something. But, my point is, thats OK if you are say...not going to a bar because your mom wants you to go to church with her. But, it's NOT OK if this could possibly affect your life. So, I have come up with some mighty good reasons to move here to DC.
- Penny the Pug (an extremely cute reason)
- 70% of the coolest people in the US live in DC (the other 30% is scattered throughout Columbus, Dayton, New York, Wisconsin, Mass., Illinois, and pretty soon Washington state)
- Spy Museum. Enough said.
- I have never seen an armadillo here. And, I'm OK with that.
- We have snow. And, it's extremely fun to watch people freak out about it.
- In a matter of 1 hour, I can drive to 3 different states and a district. In Texas, you can only drive to Texas.
- And, best of all, I live here. (Yes, thats a positive).
So, everyone keep your fingers crossed.

The Mayor of Atlanta once said, "Atlanta is perfect except that it is surrounded on all sides by Georgia." Same thing applies to any place in Texas (though Houston is decidely non-perfect).
I will add that DC has great mass transit. DC has access to hills and green things. You don't have to cower and hide if you are a liberal in DC. Free museums. And while in DC you don't get to vote, in Houston your vote is cancelled out by millions of jerks.
Brian,
After I wrote that, I thought it sounded like something Michelle would come up with. And, out of respect for nostalgia, I kept it in.
