First week of work went well. Nothing too out of the ordinary. Not that I would expect it to be. There is a Y just down the block and I've signed up for a membership. They've got a nice pool that's outside but completely covered so you get the heat but not the burning sun. It's heated in the winter too. Should be fun. There's a little deli between the office and the Y. I've gotten a fruit bowl there several times and a V8 once. I'll be bringing the V8's from now on. The fruit bowl I could bring too, but it's nice to get out of the office every now and then.

I just got done bringing most of my stuff inside the house so I can start going through it and figuring out what I can put in my room and whatnot. Need to get a monitor so I can set my computer up. Think I'll wait for a full paycheck before I tackle that goal.

Other than that I'm well. I miss Alaska and my friends. It's been like a vacation so far but now it's sinking in that I'm here and I'm not going to see them for a long while. Karen is coming down to Vegas at the end of July so I'm planning to go up there for the weekend and hang out with her. My mom's coming up so Karen's mom will have someone to hang out with as well.

We've figured out that my mom's dog is probably an American Dingo Mix aka Carolina Dog or Indian Dog. She's very dingo-looking but has a few differences from what I've read on the internet. The funniest thing about her is that her ear-tips bounce as she walks along. She's got forward facing upright ears but the very tips of them aren't upright and kind of bounce along as she walks. I'm going to do a quick movie of it because it cracks me up.

Hope all is well with you and yours.
