Finally I can sit down and write an entry

It seems like I've never stopped moving all weekend long. I haven't checked LJ in days and don't have the fortitude to sift through the friends list. If I missed something important, please let me know.

Saturday I worked overtime and found myself in the midst of a managers' meeting for my company. They had it at my worksite, so I was on pins and needles for seven hours. Came home, furiously cleaned the apartment, ran my game, and promptly fell asleep minutes after everyone was out the door. Slept well into Sunday, then went and visited the kittens (who will be gaining the names Zoe and Zephyr, btw,) took many photos of them. Dean and Lesley displayed their love by filling us with their meat... leftover barbecue, that is. We whirlwinded off again and wound up gaming at duendegrrl and kakita_shisumo's place. Both game sessions this weekend saw the presence of cherith's floppy labrador puppy and I was flopped on muchly by him. Then I zoomed off to work, came home Monday morning and... went to a job interview.

Don't get excited. My former boss tried to get me on at the security company he works for now. They told him I'd keep my same pay, same benefits, and have my vacation time grandfathered over to them. Sound too good to be true? I thought so too but went along with it anyway. After some discussion with Mel we decided I was better off staying where I'm at so I can keep my benefits and continuing to hunt for something that pays better; something OUTSIDE this field I never planned on working in. We decided if she can get the position she wants with the library that I'm going back to school. Please pray that she gets it because I'm desperate for something to change in my life. I think I'm really ready to go back.

Last night met a couple of co-workers before my shift. They're two brothers who play guitar and wanted to look at the B.C. Rich Beast and Warlock bass I've been wanting to sell. One of them went ahead and bought the bass. The other wants a chance to play the Beast for a few minutes before he buys, which is a wise idea. We didn't have an amp when we met so I need to find a time to meet with him again.

Today had to drive to Liberty to take Mel her lunch. When I got back, I did the dishes. And now... here I am, finally relaxing. I'd love to sit and rest but I need to start job-looking again since the potential job change did not work out. Just thought I'd drop in to let everyone know I'm still alive.

We whirlwinded off again

When did you learn Stormwind Rider?

Not soon enough, I fear.

I had a busy weekend of entertaining parents, so I've got quite a bit to catch up on myself. I gave up last week on catching up on entries from while I was in NY. I hope the job situation works out well. Things will change, that's for sure. They never stay the same.
Also, I saw pictures of those kittens and they are adorable. This is NOT helping me to stop wishing for a 3rd kitten.

I need to be strong though... Brian wants a puppy when we finally get the place together.

Phew, that is a crazy weekend. Best of luck with the search! It really does sound like you need a change of pace.

Good luck to both of you with the job searching, hope that Mel gets that position!

Dean and Lesley displayed their love by filling us with their meat...

I'm not even going to tell you what that made me think of. ;)

here's hoping things work out on the job thing. I know how much you need/want/deserve a change of pace.

Before I forget - what you need to relax is some good old fashioned drumming! Friday at 6? All the cool kids will be there!

[duendegrrl.livejournal.com]

Yeah yeah. Bang drums!!!

Plus, once you get tired of dancing, you can sit around and talk game stuff whilst lovely women dance in the background. :P
