I kicked butt this weekend on the sales floor. Had a blast. Worked longer and harder than I expected--but it was worth it. Dunno when my next day off will be. Tomorrow I start training the group again.
Should have some great news to post shortly.

They needed someone to help out selling at on of their branches today, so they chose me! I may even need to help them out tomorrow, which means I would have worked seven days straight, and going straight into another work week with no days off until Saturday--but it's worth it!
May have some reall good news to post about the job shortly.

Great day at training today. We really have a super group of people--very rare to have a group that gets along as well as we do.
Made one of those Bertolli pasta dishes with chicken, linguini and zuchinni and cheese, but I added my own shrimp. It was cooked in a red sauce--came out great.
More to study tonight.
Can't wait to take a break...

I'm always hungry after reading about what you're cooking.

I'll gladly take you up on that if I'm ever in your neck of the woods. 
Training went well today. I got great compliments from the DM!

Thanks, sweetie!
I'm curious, what's the 8th Habit? I had to read the 7 Habits... for a class in college. I really didn't care for it.

Last night I went to my Aunt's for Sedar--the first time in 10 years (because I was in LA) and this was my first Sedar since my dad died. Needless to say, I was in horrible shape, made friends with a bottle of Absolute and Gentlemen Jack, and then when I got home, threw my guts up five times. First time in my life I've...

I'm shoe happy! That's not a typo. I bought a pair of ROCKPORT DRESSPORTS yesterday at Macy's. Cordovan Kiltetassles (yeah, I know--no straight guy on this planet should know what the hell kiltetassles are.) that were orig. $100 for 50% off, then an additional 10% off, then when I get my bill they take an additional %15 off! I wish I could have bought them...

The two intensive days of training was great. The District Manager is a really cool guy. Now it's back to me training the newbies, and then next week a full week of intensive training.
Haven't had a chance to see any movies or do anything really cool in NYC yet. Looking forward to checking out Monday Night Magic, and catching some Broadway shows. Guess I'll...

that's one of the reasons why i didn't become a photo major
the other reason was because i couldn't afford it when i was a freshman...

That would be so awesome! Maybe one of these days I'll make it out there. *crosses fingers*
Great week at work. Many accolades from my boss. Starting Monday some heavy duty training with the big brass. Meanwhile, I'm having a blast training the team, and the team is loving the way I am training them. This is the best group of people I've ever worked with. I'm really excited about this opportunity. Don't want to jinx it!
Plenty of errends to do...
