It's just Greenville, NC

It figures...


This morning, in between running the kids, errands, and laundry, I was chatting with Robb. I told him how this morning, driving thru Greenville, for a brief moment, I kind of missed it. Just is weird to have known a place so well, and not really be a part of it anymore, I guess...I also mentioned to him that by the time I leave here, on Wednesday, I will be sick of it...LOL!

I don't really care for small towns. By all accounts, Greenville, NC IS small. True, there is an excellant school here, a great hospital, the school system here is decent, there are cool places to hang out at, and one or two things to occupy your time with...it's still small though...

Here is what I mean...You can't go anywhere and not see someone you know. Not one errand do you run that you don't run into someone you know. This is ok...especially if that is what you are looking for...but, if you are like most people from the south, you can't just walk past someone you know and not say hello. You can't just walk away...you have to stand there and chat for a bit...there is something to be said for making things go by faster, by being able to run to the grocery and not have to go thru this. I'm not complaining, it's just humorous for the most part, that's all.

Well, the "it's a small world" feeling doesn't stop there...LOL! Today, after having an interesting lunch with Lis at a full service restaurant where we had to shout our order across the dining room to the bartender, b/c he, for whatever reason didn't feel compelled to walk over to our table to take our order...THEN...I almost sent our desert sailing across the dining room...LOL...only me...I have never had to cut my desert with a knife before in my life! Lis almost choked lauging at me...ANYWAY, back to my point, didn't mean to ramble...I just thought that part of the experience needed to be told...haha...Anyway, I was telling her of a lunch date I have scheduled for Tuesday. LMAO! I told her the guy's name, and I told her what he does for a living...LOL! After me telling her, she looked almost astonished...She knows this guy...we compared his phone number from my phone to her's--they matched...Guess who it is? It's the guy that was giving me a hard time about going to Bible Study...Robert...He will be the next date...I don't have any planned out other than that one with him, most of my time here is with my kids...She said...it's such a small world...I replied, "no, it's just Greenville, NC"...

How hysterical?
