Jobs and Awards
Well, actually it’s just one job and one award. I really couldn’t handle any more than that. More than one job would overwhelm me and more than one award might give me a big head and my head is big enough as it is. Seriously. The doctor told me so when I was twelve. He measured my head with a measuring tape and told me I had a big head. Yeah. That’s just what every twelve-year-old girl needs to hear.
Yeah, and then when I was seventeen the dentist told me I had a big mouth. Yup, big mouth. Seventeen. Great.
Anyway, enough about my personal psychoses. I have a job, and I have an award.
Let's tackle the job first, shall we? The person who interviewed me called on Monday to offer me a job, but not the one I interviewed for. That happened to me once before and that time they offered me $8000/year less than the job I had interviewed for. This one was actually a positive change though, partly because it pays more than the other one. I’m going in today to fill out paperwork and I’ll start in about a week.
As for the award, Leanne gave me this lovely “You Make My Day” award. Awww. Thanks, Leanne!
Now I’m supposed to pass it on to five other bloggers, so here goes....
Holy Mama, because she’s funny, spunky, and her kids like her “chicken and snowballs”.
Jeana, because she makes me laugh every day and she needs a little cheering up after her daughter outed her in her comments.
Scribbit (Michelle), because she has great ideas, great stories, great recipes, and great giveaways.
May and Anne, who don’t read this blog and will probably never know I gave this award, but who get it anyway because they are oh so entertaining.
Camy, because she not only writes good books; she writes about books and gives books away. Now, that’s my kind of blogger.

Oh thanks! You're so sweet! Just what I need on a cold morning like this.
OOOH! YEa! Thank you!!!
fantastic timing. I just figured out how to post buttons. not to a sidebar, since that's way hard and maybe one day i'll figure that out too. BUT YEA! you totally made my day. Thank you!
Geekwif! We're so honored. You must forgive. Anne and I are total luddites and are still trying to figure out this whole Internet thing.
But I saw this and it made me so happy!!!
Awww... shucks. I am totally inept, but still quite flattered!
