Road Trippin'

I love road trips. I love packing for them, I love the anticipation, I love getting started, I love the zoning (most of the time) and I even love the arriving. Did I mention the gratuitous stops at Starbucks? I have most of the stores between Medford and Sacramento pegged, and I'm getting there with the northern trek as well.

I'm trippin' north this weekend for my cousin Natalie's wedding, which will be fun, and I also get to see my Nan and LaDonna, not to mention various and sundry other family members and friends. It sounds like I might also be getting to go up in two weeks with my parents for the second weekend of special meetings in Portland. I have to say, it's just nice to get out of the Valley and the "norm" of boredom and stress. Have a good weekend, everyone!

Job Security

I hazn't any right now. It's kind of hard to keep one's chin up when one's employers are talking about negating one's job. Fortunately Becky is fighting tooth and nail for me, but I can't help thinking it's just a matter of time before it all goes bad. Positive thinking, hurrah!! I've been looking for another job, but they're rather scarce on the ground right now, at least in my areas of expertise (sitting around, doing nothing, surfing the net, etc.). But at least I have a job!!!! And I am thankful for it!!
