Four and a half hours isn't so bad...Might I ask how you met?
Summer jobs...
DD landed one that starts today. In a coffee shop...she called me at 7:30 am to ask me what to wear for her first day! Gotta love being a mom!
I will be working at the airport snack shop starting tomorrow. I am looking at it as a way to meet people and widen my circle of friends. The cash is secondary...altho helpful!
Still no word from the job of my dreams...need to take a page from figgie's book and apply to more other jobs. Well, there are a few other possibilities on the horizon. I want to hold out for the BEST one tho!
Have a great day you all. Summer solstice...longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere is coming up. Woo Hoo!
Gotta love those summer nights!

We found the Kong, the movie was great, and I am dead on my feet...
The great thing about the kong is that I can fill it with food, freeze it and then give it to the puppy when I leave. It distracts him when I go, and it is a puzzle for him to solve...(How do I get the food out?) Very glad we found it...there is still one other food puzzle toy that disappeared, but that is OK.
Went to see Young at Heart with my friend last night. A strange coincidence, (Not as strange as Barbie's black capri turquoise top incident, but whatever...) her son who just graduated used to go out w/ CG's daughter. I guess it is just really a small town.
I had a counseling session. The C thought that I have a habit of falling into relationships with people who are emotionally unavailable (EX, CG) because of the relationship w/ my mom. Of course I made the mistake of calling my mom "emotionally unavailable" to my sister, which sparked a whole meaningless debate w/ her about what exactly is the problem with Mom and Me. I tried to get out of it, knew it was a mistake the minute I opened my mouth, I just had mentioned it in reference to my patterns of behavior, and it really had nothing to do with mom, but oh well. We eventually got back to what I had hoped to talk about and then were able to go on...
Today I went to the airport, at 8:00 am to do my first food service shift in a VERY LONG TIME (Motherhood does not count!) I thought I would be meeting people, but instead I was back in the kitchen making sandwiches and prepping salads. This was fine. It was fun, there was a 20 yo girl helping out and I did meet some people. This is a once a year situation and it is a good way to make some extra cash. I stood on my feet for 7 hours, kept busy and just generally filled in where ever help was needed. I think it was over 100 today, and this little trailer had NO AC! By the end of my shift I was beyond tired. I came home, took a shower and a nap, and now am ready to enjoy the shortest night of the year!
I think it has cooled off enough that I can take Argo for a nice long walk. I am skipping the party at the airport tonight...I have to be there again at 8:00...
Oh, and I did take a bunch of cool pictures...Saw several huge formation dives...woot!

Okay, so you had to work in the heat, but you had a great earworm stuck in your head while you did it: "Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be sedated Nothin' to do and no where to go-o-oh I wanna be sedated "
