Back in St. Paul after spending the last week in Rochester. It was a nice time-relaxing. I don't know why I was able to relax better there then at my own place. Me and the dog had fun. I got so used to being at his beck and call and reacting when I heard a noise outside like he did that yesterday I heard kids outside and was ready to start saying, "TJ-take it easy." Wierd.

Today I had to attend a job re-entry session at the local Job Force Center. Mandatory. And a big waste of my time. The guy was about my dad's age and really looked like he didn't know how to advise people on how to find a job. He spent 20 minutes showing us a web site and how it worked. Read everything off a piece of paper that the entire room had a copy of. I didn't learn anything other then my job search methods were probably going to find me a job better then his.

I have a second interview tomorrow for the job I really am interested in. Hopefully it goes well.

Our friends Matt & Jill let us know they are expecting a baby in November. I'm very happy for them-now the questions start on when we are having kids! Let's just say....we're not ready yet. Give me two more years.

Wanted to post this web site and forgot recently...I think I mentioned trying to remember this comedian's name to Pat. His special on HBO is over the top hilarious. Eddie Izzard...if you see this cross dressing makeup wearing dude on television, you must stop and watch. His best line on referring to how the language in Britain is spoke (he is a brit) and our version here is this: "You say ERB and we say HERB because there's a f-ing H in it." He's rocks. Thanks to my husband for introducing me!

Mike and the Stanley Cup...what can I say? He had fun while I was in Rochester!

One funny note regarding the Wild and the playoffs...our cousin Whittney, who is 18, has turned into a hockey fanatic in the last year or so. (Reminds me of me at that age! It really has to do with hot boys when it starts, but then you actually learn the game and like it) My aunt and uncle are telling me how violent she gets when she's been watching the Wild. Such things as "clear the f-ing puck you moron" can be heard coming from this quiet and shy young woman. But, the classic, was heard by her dad while watching American Idol. As one girl is going to be voted off, Whittney yells: "You're going down, BITCH". Apparently hockey screaming spreads!!!

FYI-I have now begun to hire myself out for cash on the barrel. I clean houses and organize photo albums for people, which are two jobs I've recently acquired. Please contact me via this web site for more information and costs. My prices are very competitive and if you are a relative (as that's the only people hiring me) I'll give you a deal. Just remember you are supporting my Krispy Kreme habit by paying me.

Target stores have now started to sell boxed Krispy Kreme's. I found this out today. It's a bad thing for me.
GOD HELP my weight after this revelation.
