The Unthinkable

It's true. I too thought it an impossibility. Many friends may very well rub it in my face. At this point i don't care.

I prefer Ohio to Atlanta.

Somewhere in the middle of the miles of corn, snow drifts, sideways rain, and all nighters i've made a friend. His name is the Midwest. I'm not as foolish to call it the best place on earth. Nor would i encourage others to move and take up residence. It merely has remained a constant in the midst of everything. At this point that is quite significant.

Slower days, smaller towns. It's true that it does have a bit to do with where my friends live. I'm not saying it will last. Just that it has toppled the mighty Atlanta.

I know the names of those who will soon mock my statements. They are the same who will cry i told you so. Ehh I've been wrong before. Way wrong.
