I suck!

Well, I truly suck at blogging. Sometimes I feel like I have nothing much to say...especially in comparison to my friend Dallas. Between her everyday life and raising a 7 1/2 month old...she has so much to report on.

I had my interview with Laurie Blakeman's office last week. As usual, I walked away thinking about how I could have better answered the questions. Well on Tuesday night, I was offered the job! Yay!!! It's full-time with benefits. And the big plus....it is so close to where I live. I'll save about an hour and a half each day in travel time.

Otherwise, my life has been pretty uneventful. On Saturday, I went to the Tyler family Christmas dinner. My godmother got back from New Zealand on Friday, so I was able to see her at the dinner. I didn't insist that Robert come along because there were so many people there. With the exception of my godmother and my grandmother, I only see the rest of them once a year. The dinner was really good and we had a really nice time.

On Tuesday, we had our bookclub meeting. We discussed Honeymoon in Purdah by Allison Wearing. It was a really cool book that I would not have normally chosen. Next we are reading Justice: Crimes, Trials, and Punishments by Dominick Dunne. One of the other options was a book about a guy who is in rehab for alcohol and drug addiction...thanks but no thanks!

Weekend Update

Well, it was a fairly busy weekend. After going to the gym and picking up Craig's birthday present, Robert and I had dinner and went out to Overtime for some drinking and dancing. We had such a good time. Afterwards, we took a cab to Funky Pickle. The pizza was not so good. The crust didn't taste like it was thoroughly cooked. I barely had three bites and I couldn't finish my slice. Robert also thought the dough was poorly cooked, but gladly finished my slice. Because it was such a nice night, we decided to walk home rather than take a cab. On Saturday, we were a little slow to get going. We finally got our asses in gear and left for our respective gyms at around 12:30. I had intentions on coming home after the gym and dropping off my bag before heading out to do some grocery shopping. I though I would just take a quick 20 minute nap before heading out. Well...an hour and a half later!!! Woops! I zipped out for movies and groceries and was home just after 6 pm.

Yesterday, we had Craig's birthday dinner at my parents' place. He's 26!!! Yikes! We bought him Need for Speed: Most Wanted game for his XBox. He was so excited to get it home and finally play it...after Survivor off course!

This week looks like it is going to be a bit saner than last week. Last week, our office hosted an open house, and on Thursday, Dallas and I went to see "A Christmas Carol' at the Citadel.

NEWS UPDATE - I have an interview with Laurie Blakeman's office on Thursday afternoon!! If I get this job, it will be full time with benefits and the office is very close to where I live. Wish me luck!

Damn!

After seeing all my friends have their pictures on their profiles, I finally decided to do the same. It didn't take too long to figure out...but I did it. It's actually a picture of Robert and I, but whatever. I don't have many pictures of just me.

I am damn tired today. My coffee just is not big enough. I drove out to the airport last night to pick up Dallas, Darren and Sweet P. By the time they got through customs, got into the car, and hit Micky D's on the way home...I didn't get home until just after 1 am!! So far, it has been pretty quiet today at work and I am hoping it stays that way.
