On A Personal Note: Where in the World is Darlene?

Well, first to my regular readers, I am on the road, traveling. I am taking a much needed vacation. The beauty of this vacation is that I am spending time with my family, my extended family. We have gathered to celebrate my uncle’s 70th birthday. So, I have driven, flown for hours and finally landed. Actually yesterday was the big travel day. I am in another time zone and last night, I felt like I had been hit by a mack truck!! Not to fear, I am alive and well and plugged back in. So, where in the world is Darlene? Well, I could tell you, but it would be more fun for me, if you guessed. So go for it! Take your best shot! Clues? Here are a few clues:

• I changed times zones
• I am still in the US
• It is warmer here than it is where I live (Have you read my bio?)
• There is no large bodies of water where I am
• The air is drier here than where I live (This should help lots of you)

I will tell you when I get back home. And if by chance someone guesses correctly, I will send you my favorite book by Ron Fry, 101 Great Answers to the Toughest Interview Questions.

Let me share one quick story concerning my travels. I met a gentleman while flying on my first leg of my flight. He was very friendly, and we got to talking about what we do. I asked him what he wanted to be when he grows up? And he said he is doing it. He wanted to be in sales and that is what he is doing. It was great to talk to him, to hear his story. My question is what is your story? I am still looking to hear from more of you about your current careers and about what you wanted to do when you were a little kid. Though I am on vacation, I am still thinking about you. Wondering which one of you will have the courage to share your story. I want to feature some of your stories. So, scroll down and leave a comment. What did you want to be when you grow up? Are you doing it? If so, how did you get there? If not, why not? How did you get where you are?
