Larry starts new job

Larry is quitting his job today. He starts with a new restaurant chain, Texas Roadhouse, on August 3. They have this owner-operator gig that's too good to pass up. He'll be training in Boston for two months (August and September) and then working in one of the Pennsylvania stores for maybe 6 months (there are two stores within 30 minutes of our house). Sometime in late winter/early spring, he'll start working in upstate NY, helping to open one or more stores. Where *we* will actually be assigned is not yet known, though it will definitely be in upstate NY. They already have stores in Buffalo, Binghamton and Syracuse, so it won't be any of those. They're considering 7 sites around the state, including Albany (which would get my vote -- I could get a really cool job there, working in the government or even for a lobbying organization).

Hopefully we'll find out exactly where we're going toward the end of the year. We wouldn't move until next summer.
