Hands in the air like it's good to be Alive...

I could say that I haven't updated because I've been busy working, which is true being that I work 6 days a week, but honestly it's a mixture of laziness and having not too much to write about. So here is an update on my little ol' life...

On the work front: Job is going good. Working a lot, taking on more responsibilities since we haven't had a director. I've enjoyed the extra duties, it's been a learning experience. My RVP has continuously told me what a great job I've been doing and that's always nice to hear. Our new director started the 5th so I've kinda been showing her the ropes and stuff. I think we'll work well together, unfortunately as soon as she knows what she's doing my temporary raise will be reduced back to my normal wages. It was just while I was taking on director responsibilities. I think I am going to ask for a slight raise anyway though.

In addition to my primary job I have been helping out once a week at Griddle. It's quick hours, quick cash and it's nice to work with my sis again. After May is over I am done though. Having one day off a week is not for me. Janice Dickinson came in last week. Being the dork that I am I was like 'Ahhh, it's Janice freakin Dickinson!' Of course my sister was like 'oh yeah she comes in all the time', all nonchalant.

On the home front: Dad is driving here as I write this. He'll be in town around 5pm. My dad will now be living in Cali. It's seriously still hard for me to believe. I cannot believe that when I go home to visit Iowa my dad will not be there and our house won't be our house anymore. It was a piece of crap house, yes, but it holds a lot of memories. So now my dad is on his way here with a truck packed full of his life, no apartment and no job yet. This is the most unplanned, unorganized move ever. I am trying to find a place for him, but it hasn't been easy. And until he finds one he will be staying with us. That would be 5 people in our apartment. Stressful! I am trying to stay positive, but it is hard.

Ash booked a commercial. She is actually in Mexico shooting it right now. I am so happy for her. She was def nervous though, it being her first commercial and then having to go to another country for 9 days to shoot it. I haven't talked to her since Monday. She was on her way to rehearsal. I miss her already.

Tawny is supposed to be here tomorrow. I haven't talked to her for a few weeks, but I'm pretty sure it was a set date. So exciting! SG got the bank job and is steadily saving money away and she'll be out here before you know it.

Larry joined a softball team. George joined us for some dinner last night and then we went to Larry's game. Def not as boring as I though it would be. George kept me company which helped. I'm really glad Larry is being active. I wish I could get my lazy ass to be more active. I wanted to start running/walking, but I don't want to go myself. Bad excuse I know, but it keeps me from moving. Ash was supposed to start with me, but we didn't get far, meaning nowhere.

Eleven weeks until I come home to Iowa for a visit!!!!!
