...Don't Worry, this isn't about the Socialites.
Life in South Carolina is different; much slower that Florida. Sitting, enjoying my lunch this afternoon, I was enlightened upon the simple things that encompasses the people here. I was enjoying a bowl of corn chowder, and one of my coworkers spent a good twenty minutes about the different food he likes to eat. First it was how he marinates corn on the cob with mayonnaise. Then it was his homemade chicken salad that is better than the Piggly Wiggly. And as I was sitting, I realized the lack of consumerism here in South Carolina. I was humbled to think that different ways to make barbecue ribs and corn excited him. I hope that one day something simple captivates me. In reading the USA Today, the cover story has been howthe US is feeling the effect of the stock market. In Florida, everyone I know be complaining about it. they would be scared to even go out to dinner because they fear that their money will be gone in the morning. I love that I haven't heard anyone complain about here. My investment banker mentioned it one time. From hearing it everyday, I love the fact that it doesn't bother the working class here. You just go to work and do what has to be done. I love it.
I hope everyone wishes me luck. I am having an awful time with finances and I'm having to look into an additional job. We'll see what happens.
I think tonight I'll take the long way.
