(no subject)

Got a job yesterday. Which was snazzy, as it was the result of my going to a temp agency in the morning. My life is good, and I feel much better about turning down the knife selling job I was offered Tuesday night. And happy that I don't have to work for APAC. Not the greatest job in the world, but it pays decently and is only temporary- working on a major project for a local bank- which means I don't have to quit and therefore don't have to feel guilty about quitting. Have no leads on the DC job front, though did apply for one. Have two leads on the DC living front, but I think they want me to move in soonner than I am ready to- I'm not unpacked from Alfred, much less packed for DC- which is something I should work on. But first I think I need a major shopping spree- my waredrobe is in desperate need of an update- needs new jeans and nice black pants that aren't dying and maybe some more professional clothes- definitely more skirts. And, until I know where I'm living, I don't know exactly what I'll need, though I know I'll want my books, and clothes, and a tv for my room and my movie collection and probably a bookshelf (for all those books). Suddenly reminded of moving out of Bartlett and my motivation to take a vow of poverty (I own more than many small African nations).
Went to see Shrek 2 with Cassandra. Very funny movie, highly recommeded. You should go. I should go to bed now, so I can go to work in the morning, but I want to know how Gabe did on his EMT test, though he's probably in bed already. BTW, anyone know a good way to get cheap tickets to Italy?

PS- forgot to mention that I quit the summer job I got earlier, b/c I wanted to be home with my family and earn more money, hence the needing a job in Utica.

I'm going to bed, really I am...

And I'm taking The Valley of Horses with me, which is the second book in the Clan of the Cave Bear series, and hard to put down. But first, if you have a livejournal and would like to be one of my friends, I could use more friends...
