So I have a job - unlike many of my compatriots, I have weathered the "wintry economic climate" and will be working somewhere that doesn't pay 7.50/ hour. The downside is that its not quite as glamourous as one might like, but the paycheck will be a hearty consolation. I am (drumroll) an insurance agent. I'm not sure it gets more boring sounding than that - but hey - on Gone Without a Trace (or whatever the fuck it is called) an insurance VP serial killed about 10 women over 14 years. Woot. In all actuality, I am really excited. I don't think it will remain the career path for me, but I do believe it is a good stepping stone. I also got offered a sales position at Acura, and when I turned it down they called me to see if I would reconsider. So all in all, I am feeling pretty good.
Don gets deployed soon - and that makes me uneasy. I will miss him, and I'm also a little nervous of being alone. Luckily my apartment is decked out with security, and I am always uber paranoid.
To answer everyone (of course only one person reads my LJ- though I might re-post this on grrr...umm...not facebook - aha myspace)married life is F-I-N-E. I am SOOO freaking tired of being asked that question. Its really not that different - thank god. We have fun, we have awesome sex, we cook dinner together, and occasionally fight about whose painting is going to be put over the mantel (I am winning thus far).
Somehow the people at the College Republicans have my email - and despite unsubscribing- and having never responded in -say- two years- they keep telling me there's a cool mixer with free pizza at the bowling alley. Yeah - no wonder no one's interested.
I miss Tallahassee - I never thought I'd say it, but its terribly true. I have never been so isolated as I am here. I doubt I'm going to make hardy friends whilst tromping around peddling insurance. But you never know.
