It's only Tuesday??

Don't you hate it when weeks go by slowly? I kept thinking today was Thursday and that I should update the blog because it's been almost a week... when in reality it's only been a few days. But it was a resolution of mine to update more often, so here I am.

You may be wondering what good news I have from the last entry. Although I know only about 4 people read this (on a good day) and I already told at least two of you what the news is, so it's really not that exciting anymore. BUT.... I was offered a full time job! With a salary! And benefits! And a cubicle! WOW! I love the job so I accepted but I won't be full time until the semester is over in May and I can be done teaching for good (well, for a while). This is the same job I've been blogging about lately and I'm not going to talk any more about it except to say that I really like it and I'm really excited to see where this opportunity will take me (that sounded like a line in a cover letter).

I am a little bummed about one this. Zorbaz. I was secretly hoping that I wouldn't be able to find a job so I could go back and work there this zummer. The only option I think I have would be to work a weekend schedule... but then I have really no days to myself... so we'll have to see what happens. We're done at the office (it feels so fancy to say that!) at noon on Fridays in the summer so I could maybe work Friday and Saturday evenings and Sundays during the day (Jerilyn, I know you'll probably read this... so this is just what I'm thinking about for the summer, just so you know!).

Other than that exciting shtuff, I feel like I haven't really had anything else to blog about lately. I mean, stuff happens in my life but it's not really blog-worthy. I think most of the stuff I wind up writing about, is pretty boring anyway... but I write because ... I write because I just do, I guess. Not sure if that makes a whole lot of sense... but I do. It's funny because the only reason I started this account on Blogspot was so that I could comment on Jerilyn's page about her trip to New Zealand (jerilynsheryak.blogspot.com). I didn't think I would actually start writing, but I did. If you read some of my original posts, they were all related to my weight. I thought this would be a good place to document how fat I feel/how skinny I wish I was. Unfortunately, too many people have blogs like this, and too many people whine too much on blogs like this. So, I nixed that idea because I didn't want to be too whiney sounding.

FYI, right now I am sitting at the dining room table with a cat on my arm. I'm talking outloud (aloud? outloud?) to myself in a strange Dougie Howser-ish kind of way. For some reason, it seems like if I say it it will sound good on the computer screen. So far, I think I'm probably wrong. Oh well.

As most of you know, my husband is obsessed with muskies. Obsessed. It's kind of ridiculous at times, but I think I'm getting used to it. Last week, he and a friend went to the cities to put together a DVD of him fishing. Over the past year or so, he has collected hundreds of hours of footage of his fishing adventures. It has finally come together in a DVD called "Go Fish." It is currently being produced and will be available to purchase this weekend at the expo in Milwaukee. You can check the trailer for the video out on YouTube... click here.

Don't worry, Alison, none of those fish came from anywhere NEAR Pelican! hee hee.

Well, I've stopped talking to myself now, which I think is a good sign, but who knows??? I'm going to go watch some trashy TV for a bit and then call it a night. Thanks for reading. Leave comments, it makes me feel special. =)
