Yep, back home again. Not sure about "Region Rat", though. I kinda left that behind when I went into the army. The accent sounds funny to me now.
I don't really see it as losing ground. More of a retrenchment. This will allow us to put money aside for our big move and to research & work on projects.
Jobs won't be an issue. There is available employment.
Wife is pretty d@mn special.
Pierogi Fest next year! We love to eat!
I should be available for a Chicago KNO in October. We'll be settled by then.
Celtic Fest is just before Feast of the Hunters Moon in West Lafayette. We hope to get to the latter. Maybe the MwKS will have a kilt day there!
I'm REALLY looking forward to the diversity of restaurants and entertainment up there. I miss places like Chipotle and thin crust, square cut pizza.
More later!
