Go with the flow

Well, nothing is sure in life but death and taxes. This includes one's plans for their next assignment. So, NYC is a bust. But, not completely. The preference has only been postponed until this fall. Which works for me, because that would mean being there in November, and short of re-celebrating the B-day in Chicago again, I can't think of a better place than the Big Apple!
Ok, once again...I digress. So, as of now...unofficially right this minute (because nothing's on paper yet), I am heading for Urbana-Champaine, Illinois. The decision was tough, because there was another offer in Barrington, Illinois. Which is a subburb of my beloved Chicago. But, Urbana seemed to have it a little bit better, so, off I go.
