Now, I can get down with the best of them, but at my age and with my career, I'd rather hang out in more classy, upscale, sophisticated type spots.

I agree about the club thing. I'm 23 and I've gotten over it. There used to be several "grown and sexy" places, but they've transitioned into regular 18+ clubs. Addison or Uptown might be what you're into. There's also a place in south Dallas called Brooklyn's that's supposed to be nice.

Redefined...I really liked your breakdown of Texas....can you do the same for Charlotte....

Your personal narrative is the best that I have read about a city.

Also, if anyone else have any more info on Charlotte, NC..please share...thanks.

I've learned a ton in 10 pages...

LOL!

I am trying to figure something out. I hope I can get things to work in my favor so that I can move forward with my life. I think a move will do me some good!

/\/\/\ lol I can TOTALLY relate RD! I'm just TI-RED of Kansas. Maybe it's my adult ADD kickin' in or an early pre-mid life crisis, but I'm ready for a change and to start someone place new. So I'm hoping this serious job prospect works out.

I said a prayer for you!

I am sending out resumes today and I'm headed back to the coffeeshop to use the internet and search some more. I found a few jobs in Houston and Dallas. SOMETHING has to pan out. I'd even take a job here for a while if it was required. I'd just use that time to keep looking!

I'll be on my way soon enough!

And just what are you implying, Nikki?

LOL! OK, perhaps I should say become a GC regular again. LOL! Since I've figured out how to see GC better on my phone, I can visit more. However, when I did log on a few days ago, I had that little message up top telling me that I hadn't in a few weeks. So unlike me! But, I'm somewhat back now!

Thanks for the offer D!! I'm sure I'll be taking you up on that offer. I'm sending out some resumes on tomorrow. I'm spending today to look for more jobs and find out all the MPRE, bar, etc. requirements for TX.

Something is on the way!!

My family and I are visiting Charlotte next month for possible relocation. I am wondering which neighborhoods in charlotte and surrounding area should I check out while I am there. I have a middle school aged son so I am looking for a neighborhood with a great school.

Also, we wanted to check a HBCU game while we were there. During that weekend, North Carolina Central (homecoming) v.s. Edward Waters in Durham or Johnson C. Smith vs. Shaw in Charlotte, which one should we plan to go to?

hello? no contest! Come on down to HOMECOMING at central. we'd love to have you.

I have a seperate question (that I should probably create a separate thread for) if you could move anywhere outside the US: Where???

I have a few places in mind, I will name one and then reserve the rest for later:

Belize....

RedefinedDiva · #**150** 12-06-2008, 12:25 PM

Well, kids. A decision has been made and the city is:

*drumroll*

ATLANTA!!!

I gave it A LOT of thought and I prayed about it. Then, one day, the answer was clear. I decided on Atlanta. I've always loved the city and have been wanting to move there. It truly feels right.

So, if you have any further input on the city for me, please let me know. I won't me moving until May/June 09.
