I feel like this should have like a Dave Matthews Band title... "So Much To Say..." or something.... Cuz its true... I haven't blogged since like Saturday and theres been a bunch of stuff thats happened since then I wanted to blog about but never felt the urge to blog at the same time I was near a computer.... Mainly stuff thats happened in the last 2 or 3 days....

First of all.... Tuesday.... Was INSANE... I was up by 7, walked the dog and got ready to go.... I got to the interview (that had been scheduled Monday night) right at 9 (it was at nine) and spent almost 2 hours getting interviewed and testing.... The place is a temp agency so the testing was just to see where I was with typing speed and how good I was with Excel.... By the time I finally left and went to Whataburger for lunch and then home it was getting close to noon... So I hurried through lunch (they got my order wrong, darn them....) and walking the dog and the lady from the temp agency calls to prep me for my interview with this company over in Greenway Plaza at 2.... She pretty much made me feel like I was back in high school... Which is ridiculous.... But she did a good job of prepping me and letting me know what to say and not say and she even went as far as to tell me how to wear my hair.... (according to her there was a really stricy dress code - jackets and slacks or skirts, no perfume, no dangly earrings, and no low cut shirts...) Linz dropped Bailey off while I was on the phone with her, so while they played I finished lunch and got ready to go.... I got to the building where the office was located (2 whole floors of the place) at exactly 10 til 2, like the lady at the temp agency said.... Turns out the place was all into CSI type stuff, which was kind of interesting... They investigate why accidents and stuff like that happen... Mainly car accidents but they have a division for just about everything from Oil and Gas to Environmental to a Catastrophy team... They also have offices all over the U.S. including one in McAllen, one in San Antonio, one in Dallas, one in Austin, and one in Corpus.... So I had my main interview (for a receptionist position - they have 3 of them.... Crazy....) and it only took like 10 minutes.... I think she liked me, but I was a bit nervous so I may have spoken too quickly.... She was also very direct which I liked.... So then when we were done she took me to meet another woman who I talked to for about 20 minutes.... By the time I got in my car it was about 240.... I called the temp agency lady to check in and then went home.... All the errands and stuff I was GOING to run, got totally thrown out the window... Then I went to Mark's thingy Tuesday night.... It was rather dead... Then the Chickadee and a friend showed up... I ended up leaving at like midnight and coming home to walk the dog and go to bed.... I woke up to a text from a friend who had gone to kays after another thingy... darnit man...

So Wednesday.... Not much happened... I ran some errands....
In the process of doing that I had a bit of an accident.... I was looking for a pair of black sandals since Maggie chewed up my favorite pair so I was going to Shoe Cents over by TJ Maxx..... I saw some hot cops in the parking lot, and even though I didn't feel cute I figured I'd get closer to get a better look.... So as I'm zigging and zagging through the parking lot I fail to look down and before I know it I just slide down... I don't fall, I literally SLIDE.... Onto my left leg and hip... Into a puddle, which looked more like a lake, of water, dirt and who knows what else.... My capris are soaked from the left hip to the left knee.... and my feet look disgusting... Luckily I pull down my shirt far enough to cover most of the wetness and clean my feet off on my pants enough I feel ok to go into the store... I got some strange looks... But whats new there? So I dont find anything and I discovered I've scraped my ankle a lil.... (and today my left arm hurts... Like a muscle ache and it sucks cuz I can't fully extend my left arm without it hurting a lil....) So I go to mom's and check her mail.... I got most of my netflix movies and I found out I've got health insurance again... Whoo hoo... Thats a serious load off my mind... I've never been without it and I've just been praying the last 2 months to NOT have anything bad happen... Sure I had to pay full price for my Nexium once but thats ok, at least I got it.... So then I bought my ticket for tonights Randy Rogers show and printed it off before coming back to the apartment....

So I get to Blanco's Wednesday night about 930 (after running into my neighborhood hot cop - IN UNIFORM.... Yeah I was drooling a lil...) or so and run into a chick I know and a friend of her's that I'd met at Kays.... He introduces me to this hottie in an A and F shirt... Turns out he was from Mississippi and had a lovely accent to go with it.... Poor thing was chickadee's DD for the night... I felt so bad for him about that.... So I ended up hanging with them and a few other friends who showed up later on.... Then about 130 or so I went home, walked the dog and eventually went to bed....

Any opinions? Ideas? Complaints about how long this is? lol....

Yeah I'm done now...

Laters.
