Since then I have continued my counseling training at a nearby hotline gig and am about a month and a half deep into my second semester of grad school. Last week I got a couple job offers actually. I decided to turn down the one. I figured that if I was going to be embarrassed telling people that I worked as a taco manager I probably shouldn’t take the job, so I opted instead for a sales job at Old Navy. It feels weird to be almost 25 and doing a job I did in high school, but a job is a job. I think I can deal with sweaters and cargo pants a lot better than a gang of horrible brokers. My sister has an interview with them tomorrow as well (she worked there during her early college years) and it waiting for them to tell her she’s hired. After that she will also gracefully leave her real estate assistant job and we will be working, once again, for the same company, YAY! Twin power.
Hmmm…what else. Oh! Nick got, what I call, a promotion at his Sherdog radio gig. Callers kept telling the boss men how much they liked Nick so they gave him his very own email address (nick@sherdog.com). I might have seemed more excited about this than Nick, but I think he was pretty happy too. He’s like a celebrity in the MMA world, but don’t tell him I said that. He’ll just be modest and think I’m being dorky (which I am).
I recently got back from a trip to the east coast, which I had been before. I’ve been to Florida I suppose, but that doesn’t really count. My old college friend lived in New Jersey so I went to visit for a long weekend right after I quit my job. I got to see New Jersey and all of Manhattan, it was awesome! Once I get rich I will probably be moving there. The highlight was probably our visit to Les Halles, which is Anthony Bourdain’s restaurant. He is one of my heroes.
We got a good snow, the second snow of this month, this morning. Luckily we moved all of our plants inside already. Our living room and kitchen look like a rainforest, but it will be interesting to see if we can keep all of them going through the winter. Not looking forward to the weather, but I do enjoy snow and the holidays from indoors. We are planning to come down for Thanksgiving, Nick and I are looking forward to that.
