Thats a good song. Timeless even.

 Anywho, onto the weekend update. Friday Sara and I went to Crescent City [it's a restaruant not a real city] and split a huge plate of cheese fries and some awesome beignets. New Orleans style. The vanilla was better than the chocolate. 

Saturday I got to hang out and be lazy all day then we went to the Avenue and I got some board shorts for next week's beach trip. 

Today is lazy Sunday… of course most days for me are lazy. Shane's on his way over, I just thought I'd start writing some blog posts [even the crappy ones] so I can get back into the habit of doing it. I need to do it more often. That's all for today.  

So I accepted the position at Cummins. I will be out of FedEx on July 7th and starting on July 10th. 

 I'm taking a risk. I'm taking a small paycut, driving another 10 miles farther, and working longer hours. At least I'll get some real experience. 

 It's the next step in my career. 

I had a job interview with Cummins Diesel on Monday and they really liked me. So much in fact they offered me a job. I've been avoiding making a decision because I am really unsure about what I'll be doing and if I'll really enjoy the job.

However, FedEx has picked a bad week to bombard me with assignments [that aren't related to my actual work load]. It's given me a sour experience here to compare to the unknown job.

I've lived in Memphis my entire life. All 21 and a half years of it. I've rarely left the state and traveled. I've grown comfortable here and sometimes change scares me. Here's a good example, I spent about 4 years working at a near minimum wage position just because it was easy, I got along with everyone, and the hours were good.

Life decisions also run rampant with adulthood. Sure, picking a college and a major is important, but now I'm making choices about career paths, living arrangements, what car do I want to drive? and everything else.

I'm tired of settling for the same, I'm tired of being cautious. It's time to take a chance since this is the time where I can make these mistakes. Risks and rewards travel side by side and in order to get one, you have to be ready for the other.

Hey guys, I’m adjusting to wordpress [the greater blogging software] right now and switching over from Blogger. Sorry for the inactivity, I’ll be making sure to make a bigger effort.

Also Dead Man’s Hand is being retooled and put onto WordPress since Blogger has crapped out on us.
