Thank You

Today marks the 1 week anniversary of me loosing my job. (Oh, now now, don't cry for me Argentina. It's fine. Really. The boss had to do what she had to do in order to save her company. Damn economy.) If you're someone who's close to me you know that I thrive on change. Why else would I have moved 19- yep count 'em- 19 times since high school/2001? Or why don't I care about cutting my hair? It grows back. I love change. Perhaps I get bored, well, yes I do get bored, I admit it. So this means that I have a myriad of options ahead of me for my next step in life. I have few if any ties keeping me where I am now and so I've decided to head to Alaska for the summer. Why not? Three men to each woman I'm told. I'll be in a beautiful little town called Skagway (hopefully) giving people bike tours or hiking tours or taking them on a dog sled excursion from their cruise ship (that is if anyone goes on a cruise this summer, damn economy). I could work at the local gardens planting flowers and learing the art of glass blowing. Who knows. So, that is my plan. I'll be a waitress till I leave then spend my summer out of doors where people belong. Not in an office with no fresh air. So... thank you economy.

Three cheers for your post!!

I was notified yesterday of my own personal bleek news. Good thing I have a side business going; however, not going as strong as it could if the economy was in much better shape.

Maybe we could apply for a bailout?!
