I don't even know where to start...

Again I've let myself become remiss in my posting duties so I'm going to attempt a recap post here. :)

My job hunt continues and most of the interest has been from headhunters and placement agencies. Hopefully they'll relieve some of the work from me and find me a position that's worth interviewing for! I'm also planning to cold call the title companies within a 10 mile radius of the house (you'd be surprised at how many there are!). The cold calling thing may not end up working but you just never know and I figure it can't hurt to ask.

I got an email yesterday that a friend of mine who is a counselor is currently doing a class having to do with job direction, satisfaction, and career advancement so I'm in the process of finding out more about that. She's helped me quite a bit in the past so hopefully this time will not be different...

We did go to Rollins last Tuesday and he was *awesome*! B waited around outside the bus afterwards and got not only his ticket stub autographed but also his Black Flag tattoo. Here's the link to my fan boi's leg pix:

Rollins autograph :)

I continue to keep close tabs on the N'Awlins situation and am not very happy with what I'm seeing so far. B and I are taking a lot of time and weighing the options on our plans to live there...the jury's still out on it. It's really going to end up depending on what they do with the levees and how the town decides to reinvent itself. Wtf is Nagin doing with the casino thing??? And what's the deal with beating up retired school teachers??? Please don't screw up my city any worse than it already is!

I finally came to a conclusion about what I'm going to do for the Race for the Cure thing this Saturday. I'm going to donate to Brian's page (http://tinyurl.com/dgjtt) and then show up and walk with him without officially registering. Surely they won't turn me away for showing moral support. :)

I have a feeling that the rest of the year will fly by since there's Halloween, our anniversary, and then the regular holidays coming up. Our plans to get the official studio shots in our wedding outfits are coming along nicely and I'll definitely be sharing the pix once I get them.

Time to get in the shower and prepare for another glorious day at my craptastic job. At least the company is taking us to a 4-star tonight as a thank you, so B and I are going into gluttony mode to take them for all we can get. I'm already salivating like Pavlov's dog thinking about the slab of dead cow flesh that I'll be consuming. Mmmmmmm. :)

A Final Xmas post

Here's one more "Night Before" version that I couldn't help but steal from Da Jules. Y'all enjoy! Twas the night before the party When all through the town, No pigs were stirring, No cops were around. We drank segrams & smoked panama reds, While visions of the munchies danced through our heads. When all of a sudden came a knock at the door... We all yelled "Pigs!" & hit the floor. But what to our red glazed eyes did appear... A pound of columbian with 2 kegs of beer. The man at the door, he gave us a smile So we said, "Come on in man, You should party a while." But we heard him exclaim as he flew through the sky... MARIJUANA TO ALL & TO ALL A GREAT HIGH!!!

Wax Is Not Your Friend...

Ohmigawd, my Mom-person sent this one to me and I swear I actually did laugh out loud. I think I'll stick to shaving cuz this sounds really scary to me... ;-) All hair removal methods have tricked women with their promises of easy, painless removal - The epilady, scissors, razors, Nair and now...the wax. My night began as any other normal weeknight. Come home, fix dinner, play with the kids. I then had the thought that would ring painfully in my mind for the next few hours: "Maybe I should pull the waxing kit out of the medicine cabinet." So I headed to the site of my demise: the bathroom. It was one of those "cold wax" kits. No melting a clump of hot wax, you just rub the strips together in your hand, they get warm and you peel them apart and press them to your leg (or wherever else) and you pull the hair right off. No muss, no fuss. How hard can it be? I mean, I'm not a genius, but I am mechanically inclined enough to figure this out. So I pull one of the ...

Couple of Bra Jokes :)

Here's a couple of oldies but goodies. :) What Religion is Your Bra? A man walked into the ladies department of a Macy's, shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, "I'd like to buy a bra for my wife. "What type of bra?" asked the clerk. "Type?" inquires the man, "There's more than one type?" "Look around," said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material imaginable. "Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras to choose from." Relieved, the man asked about the types. The saleslady replied: "There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?" Now totally befuddled, the man asked about the differences between them. The Saleslady responded, "It is all really quite simple...The Catholic type supports the masses. The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen...
