>Once, I was trying to decided between moving to North Carolina or Southern California for work (there is a song in that somewhere). Both sides had pros and cons, and I couldn't decide.... So I flipped a coin. It came up Carolina, so I flipped it agin and moved to California

There is indeed a song there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvLjJE7Bt88.

I'm hoping people who didn't grow up with 1990s country music at least look at the link and realize that the original comment is clearly a joking reference to the premise of that song.

(Also, for any musicians who dislike or are ambivalent toward country music, maybe even give it a listen. Those Nashville studio musicians are ridiculous.)

Is it? Sounds like OP gave some additional background, unless those bits about the housing market and the business are in that song. I think OP referenced the song but the events described happened in their life.

Certainly could be, and if so it’s a delightful coincidence and a story I would tell often to fish for 1990s country music listeners. Although I doubt they actually flipped the coin in that exact way, unless they were inspired by the song to do so.

Also known as the Marine Corps PCS (permanent change of station) song.
