Day 35-46: I GOT A JOB!!!!!

Monday: I had an interview with target, I thought it went well but then I get an e-mail the next week saying I didn't get it. Oh well. Then I had Holiday Inn Express call me and asked to have an interview on Tuesday. Hurray!! All my hard work past monday actually paid off.

Tuesday: I had the interview with the Holiday Inn Express. It was quite a contrast from the almost 2 hour long interview at target. It was about 3 minutes long. She asked me for my availability, when I could start. That was about it. She then said that she would call me later that day and let me know since she had a few more interviews. The interview was at 10am. She called at 3pm and asked if I could come in tomorrow for orientation? Heck yes I can!!! So I finally got a job!! Although it is part time and the Night Audit shift, I don't care at this point.

Wednesday - Saturday: First day of training. Everyone is really nice and it is really easy. It is nice to already know how to do it.

Sunday: This night was my first night by myself. Thankfully it went smoothly. I forgot how hard it is on your body to stay up all night. Sundays are crazy too because I get off at 7am and rush home, change and get to church by 9am. I started snoring in sacrament meeting. It was really hard to stay awake. It reminded me a Dad always falling asleep. He would start snoring and then I would nudge him. I miss my Papa. The breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express is awesome. I don't know what they put in the scrabbled eggs but they are addicting and delicious. There is also bacon and biscuits and gravy. Unfortunately I am usually to busy to eat any. The smell is toucher, delicious toucher.

Monday - Tuesday: I slept all day. I don't even remember what happened. I did't realize how much your body hurts from standing on your feet for eight hours. This is not the most flattering picture but while I was out cold Chris thought this would be a comfy place to sleep. He likes sleeping with me during the day.

Wednesday: Jason really wanted to go on a hike so I went. It was beautiful and sunny. Jason of course found more rattle snakes and a gofer snake. We were only out for about an hour and a half but I already have a tan line from my Lulu top. I forgot how easily I tan. Good thing I put sun screen on my face. I hate getting a tan line on my face from my glasses. It was so pretty. I wish the ocean was warm enough to swim in. I can't wait till summer. I am going to be out their as much as I can.

It was Ralph's birthday today and I helped Sylvia make a german chocolate cake. It was gooooooood. Over the weekend Ralph went fishing with his grandson Christian for Humboldt Squid. He caught two of them so we have been eating a lot of squid. Just the idea of Ralph cleaning and preparing the squid in the kitchen is grossing me out. I do wish I could have seen them but I was working that night and he got back around 1am. I found this picture online so you can get an idea of what we are eating.

Thursday: I had a meeting at work. All of the girls are so nice. Its like having a party instead of a meeting. We had to answer questions and whoever did it first got a candy. It was fun. It is weird being the new girl and knowing more then they do. I hope i don't come off pompous or anything. One of my co workers looks like Kate from "LOST" she is really pretty.

Friday: I have to go to work tonight. Doing laundry as well. I am looking forward to going out for dinner tonight with the fam. I wonder where we are going. Hurray for no more squid (for the time being anyway, the freezer is full of it).
