Ok, I know it's been a while since I last wrote, but I've been having problems connecting to the internet at home. So...I'm sitting in a little coffee shop in on 3rd and ? (Old City area) drinking the above mentioned beverage. I'm between pet-sitting jobs. Today is my first 'full' day working for my new employer (Romp) and so far, SO DAMN GOOD! Man...even as I was sitting in the apt on 3rd and Spruce thinking about how stinky it was (very small, older cat - it's inevitable), I was STILL so happy that I wasn't sitting in a cubicle somewhere in Corporate Town, USA! The pay for my new gig isn't spectactular, but who can beat where I am right now? Cool coffee shop, lots of folks sitting around, drinking and eating and chatting about this and that, and me in my jeans and t-shirt drinking cocoa...!
Last week I got to catch up with Gen over a great meal at Bourbon Blue; I also got to catch up at the gym...my innertube was threatening to turn into a full-sized tire! I went bowling with some friends Saturday night, and although my score was pathetic (65...yes, the worst score on my team!), I still have a fantastic time and laughed my a$$ off! Got to catch up with Tan last night as well and we're talking about taking some trips...Nashville, New Orleans (we're vets there), and Egypt!
Watched the Oscars and was THRILLED that my predictions were correct...Colin Firth for Best Actor and The King's Speech for Best Film! I was hootin' and hollerin' like I was watching a game or something...(poor Jack and CJ, I scared the poo out of them).
So, the 2nd phase of "adventures in unemployment" has started off with a bang (and a yell!). :-)
