Home again

Whew, what a day. I haven't really stopped moving since 9:30, when I turned in my paper. Then I drove home, scarfed lunch, did some quick thesis communication, and went back to the mall for another interview. Ta-da - I got hired! I'll be cashiering in the small appliances section at Sears. So if you're in the market for a stand mixer or a microwave, I'm your girl.

Tomorrow is a free day. My sisters don't have school, so we might do something together. I'll have plenty of time to pack up for Thursday.

In other news, my mom picked up some old yearbooks from the Bethel Historical Society. They're fascinating. This year's book with be the 125th one ever issued! Mom used to complain that she had to put her number on her "jersey" with masking tape, but she never had to wear bloomers like the class of 1923.

She also brought home the school's copy of the 1998-1999 book. Let me just say that I'm so, so glad I'm no longer in high school. Those four years are good for no one.

"Those four years are good for no one".

AMEN for that. HS is by far the most humiliating, gut wrencing, terrifying time of one's life. I would NEVER go back. Missed my 10th reunion, and I don't care if I miss my 20th.

Congrats for the job! I have to admit I love my standing mixer and have no clue what I'd do without it.

I definitely hear you about high school. It certainly was not all hyped out to be.
