**I wrote this a week ago but it wouldn't post**
Hey :) My parents came out to visit last week. Let me back up, last Friday night was Lucy's 1st birthday party. Breigh & a date, and Mari & Jeff came over to celebrate. See, we never do anything, so it was a great excuse for me to be social! Anyway, it was fun, we ate, we drank, I drank, I drank, we played a couple games. They left, and I was hungover the next morning. Thing is, I didn't think I drank that much, and I purposely didn't because I had to get my parents from LAX Saturday morning...I was throwing up, driving to LAX with a bag just in case. Felt like crap, thought I was going to pass out. But it was ok. So, my parents came, Saturday I just showed them around Pasadena, Sunday we went to Santa Monica, Monday we went to the San Diego Zoo, and Wednesday we did Hollywood. It was all a good time. It was fun stuff, good to see them, and it's always nice to have visitors you know? Oh, and while in Hollywood we saw "White Boy" from "I Love New York," we pulled up next to him and he said that he was in town filming the reunion show (which should be on Monday I think) and we also saw Will Ferrall's son playing in the driveway while on our tour of the stars' homes.
This week was my spring break, so after my parents left I still had 3 days off work (plus this weekend). I don't think anyone could have been less productive than me in these 3 days. I did some laundry, picked up a few things from the grocery store, got a couple little errands done, and took Lucy to the park (keep in mind, that is over the course of 3 days), and other than that, I've done nothing but lay on the couch :) Which is nice...I guess...I slept until noon today. YAY! I also watched a lot of movies, which is actually out of character for me, I prefer TV to movies because there's not as much attention involved. Anyway, this week was the first time in my life I'd ever bought a movie off the cable (I know...I'm a bit behind). Thursday night Ivan & I rented "Babel". It was good...but in a different way. So Friday, I found that I was addicted to renting movies from the TV-- I watched "Stranger then Fiction" (liked it), "Little Miss Sunshine" (liked it), "Employee of the Month" (could have done without it), and "Running With Scissors" (it was ok...not sure how I feel about it really). See...very productive!
I did have my interview for Phoenix on Thursday. I think it went ok. You never really know with those things you know? You could answer great, but it's all relative, what are they looking for? Now it's just a wait & see. And if this one doesn't work out, I'm not worried. There are always jobs to be had. And it's still very early in the game. Last year I didn't sign my fall contract until mid-August. I wanted to get it done early this year so I wouldn't change my mind!
What else...nothing I guess. I'm looking for a summer job. I can't decide if I want to try & get an O.T job because the money will be good, or try & go back to the day care, because I love it there :) I think it will be kinda hard to get an OT job though because if I go the OT route, I don't want to work the whole time I'm home, only 4-5 weeks, and take 3-4 off. If I work at the daycare, I'll probably work the whole summer. Who knows. Financially, makes more sense to do OT, but I'd also like to enjoy myself, and I'm not that comfortable in nursing homes & hospitals, so I'd be a little bit unhappy everyday...I dunno!
