i've been to Meijer three days this week. today i went by myself and this kid smiled at me in the middle of the store. i found two more things that make me truly happy: 1. when people smile at me in the store 2. and when people say "hi" back when i say it to them. i also really like the animal encyclopedia at Meijer, i'm debating whether or not i should buy it. i guess i'll post this, you don't have to do it, but it would be nice: 1. name: 2. birthday: 3. place of residence: 4. what makes you... read more

So Meijer called me in for an interview today. Tomorrow I'll have the third and final interview and see if I get hired on! Yippee! I start pet sitting for Tracy tomorrow, think Setzer will get along with Joab's puppy Nitro. Who acts just like Setzer. Will talk more later.

Yup, that's right. Well, at least Pagan Pride in Grand Rapids... Yeah, the first year I went was awesome.

For those...

So today was interesting. I drove Hannah to the airport at 8:15am and then came home and crashed. I didn't get to sleep until after 5:30am so I was exhausted. Woke up at 2:00pm and Matt only had two hours until he had to go to work. I ran to Meijer and got some groceries and then met Steph to give her IDs for their IM Sports and I locked myself out of the apartment for two hours until the guy from the downstairs apartment let me in. Ugh. What a day. But on the up side of things, I just won $32 in...

Funny thing happened on our way to Mass this morning. Child #1 asked me what my Na No was about, not unusual enough, but what was cool was that I explained it to him in a way that sounded like a pretty decent query... This story is about a Man who finds himself in an alien situation when forced to abandon ship on a remote world. It is also about a young woman who finds her self alienated within her own culture and the affinity she finds with the man. Pretty general, but when asked to describe my...
