The Second Moon of Adonis

As of yesterday afternoon, it's official. I won't be taking the new job.

There are a lot of reasons for that, from some questions about the financial health of the potential new place to my reluctance to give up working with one of the best teams I've ever been on, among other factors, but I'm pretty happy with the decision. All in all, the whole thing's definitely worked out for the best.

With that out the way, I had some time yesterday to think about more important, things, like that the lease on my Crossfire is ending in a couple of months. It just so happens that when I made the call to say I was staying at my current job, I was near the strip of car dealerships in Oakland. Coincidence? Probably not.

The Crossfire's been a great car this last three years, but it's going back to the dealer tomorrow. I need to clear a spot in the garage.
