I went to see Oklahoma! (where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain) last night and I must say, Jacob Vine is my idol. Seriously, my heart flutters when I hear his voice. Anyway, during the intermission, I heard the all-too-common question for this time of year, "How's your summer going?" As usual, I replied "Not much, workin'..." but I realize that isn't really fair. Therefore, I now present a brief synopsis of my summer.
I'm working at the Winn Dixie (America's Supermarket! Your friendly neighborhood marketplace!) way down here in god-forsaken Micco. It's pretty easy work and much closer than my old job. Sure, there are pitfalls to working with customers in a retail setting ("I will be bagging my own groceries, THANK YOU!" *evil glare*, "YOU didn't ring up MY COUPONS that I forgot to present?!!?!??!!?!?!?!?!?, and of course the customers who can't understand the concept of the shiny dividers to place between orders) but, in general, everyone is very nice and my co-workers crack me up.
I've been to a few parties. I've gone to the beach. I've gone out to eat. I've been to the movies. I've also spent a lot of time with Christina. I even tried to find a pair of pants with Felicite's help. However, there's been no Panera-ing (Laura?!), no newspapering (Catie, call me!) and no Andretti racing (Anyone?!).
Coming up:
Stay tuned for 4th of July plans... I'm workin' on it.
Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth I'm leaving for New York on Thursday.
I'm driving my sister's car from MA-->FL and my mom's car from FL-->MA
Now that we have that out of the way, it's time for a fun and exciting play-along meme courtesy of Joe. There will be a prize for the winner (highest number correct). No cheating!
