Interview


So, I forgot to mention. I interviewed for another job on Friday.

It would be as a graduate assistant. I am not sure what I would be doing there are a few grants that I could be working with. The assistantship would be one or two years long. I think the professor wants me because of my analytical and horticulture background. He mentioned green roofs and installations. I am really excited. I hope I get it! He also mentioned that I would be writing papers and articles in magazines to be published if I get it.

We shall see what happens.

New Car!

I finally got it! No more Old Gray Hair! I got a new 2009 Tacoma. I love it. It feels so good after driving the Corolla for 8 years.

Now I just have to get a better bike. My little girl bike isn't good for long trips or offroading.

No More

So, IT girl is no longer. She actually worked with me until today. She was let go from her job. Now she will be the jobless wonder. She is going through a lot right now, so if you can keep her in your prayers that would be great.

Her mom actually has stomach and breast cancer in both breasts.

Please prayer for her to have the strength to make it through the next few weeks, until she gets another job. She seems to be OK, but I think once it hits her she won't be.

Weekend

So, it was a crazy weekend. IT girl and I did well. I guess we are seeing each other now? I am not sure how it is going to work out. She lives in a different state. Actually, that is all she talked about was her city and how she hated it, but that is all she talked about. I am sure you can guess that she is from Texas. She compared everything we did to a place or something in Texas. It got old fast. So, I would change the subject.

We went out with my friends one night and one of my really good friends is getting married to a guy from Texas. He is moving up here to be with her. They talked about Texas the entire time, which was fine, because I had a lot of other friends there, and it distracted her from talking to me about Texas.

I don't mean to complain about Texas, but for someone who says they don't like living there, that is 90% of what she talked about all weekend. I am not saying that I didn't have a good time with IT girl. I just wish that she would talk about other things 85% of the time.

Other than that, I might have a new car on Friday. I am doing the Obama $4,500 trade in deal. I convinced my dad to trade me his old beat up truck for my broke down Corolla. I am so excited to get the truck. Now I just have to change my budget to afford the payments for the next few years.

Oh yeah, does anybody know of a job? I really want a new job. I am tired of doing Accounting part time during school. It is sucking the life out of me. I have a few degrees, so I can do anything!

Awkward!

Yesterday IT girl gave me a ride home from work. We actually stopped and had dinner and then drove back to my house (with the top down in her rental car Mustang convertible). While I was watering my plants in the backyard. We were talking, and my parents drove up to drop off "Old Gray Hair".

I told her to hide and I told my parents that I just bought the car. They didn't believe me because they know I want a truck. So, she came to the front yard and they met her. My mom and her hit it off talking about her house and taxes. Kind of random, but she is an IT girl after all. As long as she doesn't talk in programming code we are good.

After the parents left we hung out for a while, and then she had to go back to the hotel. She got lost on the way back, I felt bad, but it was funny.

Gotta go, she is here.

News Flash!

Old Gray Hair has been fixed! The weekend is not ruined!

TIRED!!!!!

OK, I finally got home at around 9:30 last night. I had to hitch hike my way home from work. Not having a car is awkward. So, after watering my plants, I finally get inside my house and started cleaning. I had dinner at 11PM after taking a shower at 10:30PM. I cleaned until 2:30AM last night. I had to get up extra early this morning to make it to catch a ride to work. I am so tired!

It is going to be a crazy weekend.....
