Checking in

Ahhh, not working is fun, no doubt about it.

Leaving work on Tuesday was odd, very strange. It was sad and my boss cried a little, and honestly, I cried a little. I've been at that job for a very long time and we all get attached. I may have hated my job, but I never hated the people, so it was hard to walk out of there and never go back.

It was also slightly hard because I'm not sure how the new girl is going to work out. But that's not my problem is it? Nah.

Yesterday I spent the day as if I was a suburban hausfrau of a very rich man. I went to the burbs with John in the morning and spent the day shopping, sitting and reading and eating various delicious foods.

This morning I had a great visit with my mom and also solved the eternal problem of finding a cute, comfy, sexy, and cheap pair of shoes. I have a wedding to attend tomorrow for one of my friends from high school and I gotta look good! I cannot walk in heels, I really just can't. It also happens to be one of my pet peeves to see ladies walking in shoes they can't walk in. I found one pair of really sexy high heeled black shoes and attempted to walk around in the apartment with them. Although John was impressed with my height and the changed position of his hand to touch my butt, the shoes hurt, they were dangerous and I looked way more ridiculous in them, then out of them.

So today I got a cute little pair o' shoes. Heavy sigh of relief from everyone I'm sure.

I start my Art Deco training on Saturday for the Loop walking tour. Board of Trade, Carbon and Carbide, etc. I can't wait to learn about Deco, I think it's going to be a great tour to give.

Other than that, I'm looking very much forward to the first Survivor Guatemala tonight, John and I finished Lost just in time (under a week for the whole season, that's not bad).

And after talking to my mom today, have the story I will be writing for National Novel Writing Month in November (nanowrimo.org) and I think it's going to be great.

All in all, everything is good and I'm in denial about starting something so new and frightening on Monday.

Dskfla;j!!!!!
