Current Happenings

Greyson's birthday was yesterday. We had a party for him Saturday. He had lots of fun. I made him a Muno cake and we played his Yo Gabba Gabba DVD for him. He got lots of cool, fun gifts. Needless to say, he was exhausted by the time bedtime rolled around. I can't believe it's been two years now. The time has really flown by. He's such a good little boy. He can be trying at times but he's a good kid.

I had an interview Wednesday and it went really well. I hope I hear from them soon. I also received and email from Walmart sending me info for doing some contract work. I just hope something happens soon. This being out of a job is not fun. If it were by choice, then I'd have no problems with it, but since it was a surprise, it's not so fun. I was referred to a recruiter by my old boss. Well that guy was a joke. I haven't heard from him yet and he was supposed to contact me 3 weeks ago. I think I'll call him and let him know what a big help he was and that I'll never work with him again. Thank God I didn't have to pay him anything!

Lately, I've made lots of new friends on this chat room called Yoville. It's through Facebook or MySpace. It's fun. It's not like a game or anything, but you have an apartment and you can buy furniture and decorate. You can buy clothes and change whenever you want. They had Halloween costumes for sale and it was funny watching all the avatars running around dressing in ridiculous costumes. You go to work at a factory to make your money. The more people you meet and have on your crew, the more money you make. I'm almost a Vice President. Now they just introduced these new houses you can buy. There's a casino where you can win...and lose money. There's a dance club where you can drink and you screen gets more blurry, the more you drink. Can't say I've done that one yet. But you can tell when someone is drunk, their character sways. You can do dance moves and you talk in bubbles. If you get something to eat or drink it will speed up your movements and give you more energy to do dancing. It all sounds silly but it's actually pretty fun. Some people get on there and think it's boring because they're expecting some game. But I enjoy meeting all the people from around the world and talking to them on a regular basis. It's kind of neat to see into the lives of others half way around the world. It's also weird to have them saying that they need to get to bed when I'm just getting home from "work". That's a general term right now. LOL!

Our dog Penny got out of the fence...AGAIN, and was sprayed by a skunk! Damn dog! So she's been sleeping outside the past couple of nights to air out. We finally found a concoction that seems to have helped somewhat. We mixed baking soda, peroxide and dish soap. It helped a little but she still has a slight odor to her. But not bad enough to have to sleep in the freezing temps outside.

That's about it that's happening here. Thanks to those few that read this. Sorry I haven't had a chance to catch up on this blog. It's been chaotic even though I don't have a job. Somehow I seem to be more busy...trying to find a job and all.
