North Carolina Overview

What I've learned about Charlotte, NC, so far:

• The time change really messes me up...but it was fun having a flight an hour shorter than I expected!
• How do you confuse a Pollack? Give her a time change with Daylight Savings on top of that. She'll never know what time it is! (Until her trusty boyfriend helps her out, of course. What a great guy.)
  
• Being here means "Coast of Carolina" and "Coastal Confessions" by Jimmy Buffet are almost constantly stuck in my head...nevermind that we aren't actually on the coast.
  
• The drivers are MUCH nicer than those Texas drivers. They even know how to use turn signals!
  
• It's gorgeous here...so many budding trees right now, so green, beautiful architecture...wow.
• There are some really decent coffee shops around.
  
• It's a city that would be fun to live in/around.
• Time goes slower here...or seems to, at least, because I'm savoring every minute of it, knowing it'll be a while before this happens again.
  

The consensus is that NC's a great place. :)
