weekend update

Alright! It's time for an update, finally! Not that there hasn't been anything going on; that's the complete opposite. Just that I haven't had the time or energy to post something new. Work is going pretty well. I've caught on to everything pretty quickly, and am finally getting used to being on my feet in dress shoes all day long. I finally found the right pair of shoes that are going to keep me from being in pain all day, and that's 99% of the battle.

I interviewed at the insurance place last Friday, and I think that it went really well. I haven't heard back from them yet, but hopefully within this week I will hear from them. I really really really want to get this job. Especially before the holiday season gets in full swing. They've already started playing Christmas music at the store, and I'm sick of it. Blech.

The weather is cooling off quite a bit around here, and all the leaves have fallen off the trees, but the grass is still green. So it doesn't look QUITE like barren winter yet, but I'm sure after we add a little snow to the ground, that will be the case. Still no snow that's stuck to anything yet, but a couple of flurries in the air over the last week.

My parents have left for their Australia trip and I talked to them over Skype this afternoon (which was actually Saturday morning for them) as they were getting ready to go out to the Great Barrier Reef for some SCUBA diving and a submerging boat trip. Then tomorrow is the rain forest. I'm so jealous. They are 18 hours ahead of us, so finding a good time to talk is hard, but they don't need to be spending all their free time talkin' to me, anyway.

I finally got my first paycheck from work today, so thank goodness for that. Anyway, that's about it for me now. I'll try to update more frequently!
