Cart in front of the horse... [best dining room evAr!!]
So, following a very positive phone interview, I decided to start looking around at real estate in St. Louis to see what sort of domicile I could manage and to make sure that the cost of housing wasn't going to shock me if I should be fortunate enough to get the job (which I'm trying not to be excited about, despite being very excited).
Anyway, I came across this dining room with 'custom wall mural'.

Okay, neither that nor the border is* particularly my taste, but I can deal.
Across the wall, however, hangs a piece of art that I question. I mean, I don't have a problem with the piece at all, but its placement in the dining room... I find it befuddling.
*I am a grammar dork enough to look up whether or not the verb following neither/nor should be singular or plural (ultimately, it depends on whether or not the subjects are plural, though either is acceptable), but I am not a grammar dork enough to have known that without checking... Just for the record. ;-)
Anyway, mild work warning:

Ha! Yeah... Who'd have thought St. Louis would be exciting, right??
Ultimately, though, after doing a little research on the employer: It was voted one of the best places to work in STL, and the turnover rate over the course of the last several years has been zero.
Pretty damned impressive, I'd say!!
