Times they are a changing....

Hope all has been well with everyone!! Things are moving along here. I contacted my academic advisor at the tech school and got all the information on taking my placement tests and getting all signed up for the Health Information Technician program. Really scared yet really excited to be doing that. It's going to be beneficial, I think, to be able to get a career in the medical industry which hopefully won't be affected by this economy. But by the time I get out of the program, two years from now, I'm sure the economy will just be booming and you can probably get a job anywhere.

Speaking of economy, I hate these people who are going around saying, "What bad economy? I don't feel anything affecting me!" Well thank your lucky stars you can say those things but don't come to me and say that and act like I'm a whiny, cry baby who is over-reacting. Just because it doesn't affect you doens't mean it's not happening. People like that bug me. You're really fortunate and I wish I could be like you and be stable like that but I'm not so get out of my face!

On a high note, I did get a job interview this week. My friends hooked me up where they work with an interview and I think it went well. The ladies who interviewed me were very nice and I hope I did well. It's not the job I had in mind but I don't think I have a right to get picky when I've been not working for 5 months. And crazy thing, I was watching T.V. and they said it takes on average 4 - 5 months to get a job once you start unemployment. It's been five months here in April so that might be a good sign for me!

I went to Opening Day for the Brewers and it was spectacular just like I thought it would be. There was tons of people of course but my friends were the best! haha The only thing that could have made it better was if it wouldn't have been so windy and the temperature would have been a little higher. We all looked like wind blown floozies by the time the game started because we had hats and hoods and bobbie pins holding our hair out of our faces. I can't wait for the next game!

Hope everyone had a great Easter. Take care and enjoy this great weather!

OpeNiNG DAy!!!

Tomorrow is a national holiday in Wisconsin....it's Opening Day for the Milwaukee Brewers! This is seriously one of my absolute favorite days of the year. It's drinking starting at 9:00 (if not earlier), tons of baseball fans hopeful for a great season, and party, party, party!! I can't wait for tomorrow, let's hope for a Brewer win!
