My wife had a job offer some time back. She decided that teaching school in Texas would gave more take home pay. It was her dream job she had to say no to.

I don't know if I could stare at a screen all day and half the night.. lol.. What am I saying? That's what I do now. :-\

And to top it off, they even pay ya to figure out what other folks are trying to say. That's par for the course around here.
