Below is a great conversation I had with my 23 year old stripper neighbor who looks like she is pushing a rough 45:
Neighbor: Hi Kevin
Me: Hey Neighbor, how are you doing?
Neighbor: I am doing fine, just getting ready for work. I got a new job.
Me. Really? That is great
Neighbor: Yea, Cabaret North was not for me anymore. I felt I needed to be somewhere different so I quit that place and I will never do that again.
Me: Good for you then, you probably should not have been working there in the first place any way. Where are you working now?
Neighbor: Oh, I am at a place where people are treat me with respect and class. I can make my own schedule and not have to deal with assholes.
Me: Awesome, where do you work?
Neighbor: Oh, I am at Buck's Cabaret now. They are much nicer and guys will spend a lot more money on girls there. I got to go now because I am running late for my shift. You should come see me some time. Bye.
To be honest, I actually thought that she was going to tell me that she quit dancing was going back to school or something along those lines, but I cant judge her for doing that.

Twister
Here is a news article about the tornadoes that screwed everything up in my neighborhood.
ARLINGTON - A team from the Federal Emergency Management Agency spent the day in the tornado-ravaged neighborhoods of Arlington to assess damage.
FEMA's North Texas stops included looking at 66 homes that suffered serious roof and water damage on Homestead Road in South Arlington.
Spokesman Brad Craine said the damage assessment team came at the request of Gov. Rick Perry to verify what he saw during an aerial and ground tour last week. The team surveyed damage and also looked into who was and who wasn't insured.
Resident Greg Nichols told News 8 while he welcomes any assistance from FEMA, he said their presence was late. Six days after the tornado hit, he's still struggling to rebuild half his townhouse, while also preventing additional damage.
Nichols and other homeowners in the neighborhood said the local community has offered tremendous support through the past week, but said the federal government was slow to deliver.
Craine said the response was quick. The tornadoes hit North Texas Tuesday, and damage assessments began Friday.
Once FEMA wraps up its work in Arlington, the team will present an overall damage assessment of Dallas, Kaufman and Tarrant counties to the governor. It's then up to Perry to decide if he wants to ask President Barack Obama for a disaster declaration, which would bring federal money and assistance to neighborhoods in need.
The tornado that blew through Arlington was an EF2 tornado, which packs winds of up to 135 mph. The tornado badly damaged at least 100 homes and shut down the Green Oaks Nursing Home and Residential Center after blowing off its roof.
