Ok, this will be short and I don't have any pictures that I have taken, but this story is worth blogging. Last week I went for a job interview at a tiny branch of the county library that is located in Tyro. Because a main component of the job description involved reading to Kindergartners in the public school, I decided that I should use my best military, aka nondescript, accent during the interview. I even practiced reading several children's books aloud thinking I could demonstrate that I don't butcher the queen's English.
Well, I needn't have prepared so much. I guess I just forgot I was interviewing in Tyro!
During the hour long interview with the two main librarians, both of them repeatedly pronounced library as liberry, and the one lady kept telling my about a unit on als that they were planning for the fall.
Do you know what als are? In any other county they are owls!
I love Davidson County!
Wow. That. is. crazy. I am laughing (and also slightly concerned) as I read back through this! I can't believe that! Well, you will quickly rise to the top since you come in knowing there's an "r" right in the middle of that word.
