So, new job, new house, new everything... I've even thrown away all my cups from the old house. (For those of you who know me, you know what a big deal that is.) I'm pleased. Major overhaul in life is always refreshing....
I love living in Lafayette. I've never lived in sch a small town before. One of the women that I supervise at work actually used to live in the house I'm now living in. That's one hell of a small town. There are trees everywhere.. They actually have a lovely main street that you can walk down, and visit all sorts of little shops... It's neat. And I'm still not far from Denver. That's the loveliest thing about it - when I want big city, I can still have big city. Quite nice.
There's a kitten that's taken to hanging out outside the back door. I made friends with him last night - he's a little orange tiger. Darling. And he reminds me of Aki, my smallest kitty. He was terribly hungry, so I fed him. I can't decide whether or not I'll end up regretting that decision. But the poor dear was so hungry, he just wolfed down all the food I gave him. I need people to remind me that the last thing I need is another cat, because four is plenty. This little guy is already working his way in, though...
It's terribly unfortunate the I'm replacing someone who's on maternity leave at work. I'm really good at this job. There's virtually no chance that she'll decide not to return. Quite unfortunate. This experience looks great on my resume, though. And I'm sure I'm earning great references here.
Today, I have yet more moving to look forward to... Tons of it. I Have too much stuff. I'm going to try and throw away as much as possible. As much as I can bear, given my obsession with keeping EVERYTHING.
Oh, and of course, I'm having car trouble. Issues with the radiator, issues with the brakes, issues with stupid, expensive bullshit. Car troubles will be the death of me, I tell you. Someday, I dream of owning a car with a WARRANTY. That's a good life...
