OK....house time! Ready? Are ya sure? Here it is. Its small but its cozy. I can't wait for it to be done. I have to pick shingles because they are roofing on Thursday. This hasn't been an easy decision and it still isn't made.
I talked with Dan from school today. I sent him an email last week about the benefits of his job choice over mine....it went like this...first the subject line was "I wanna be like Dan."
If I worked in finance…
I could work banker's hours.
I could make money hand over fist and produce nothing tangible.
I go running over my lunch hour and still not sweat all afternoon.
I could live in great places on the coast near water.
I could sleep in my own bed every night.
But alas, I have chosen a much less glamorous path,
It's true, I make widgets instead. The whoa's of a widget maker…
We work tirelessly.
We don't make crap for salary. (its all in the bonus)
I work at my desk over lunch.
I live in the middle of no where with no water in sight.
And I spend more time in hotels than my own home.
But I gotta say I love it!!
So my post and Aileen's comment a few posts back got me thinking about Madtown and where people are now. Leener's...I have no idea why I looked him up but I looked him up along with a buncha other people...Paul is in Dublin, OH now! I have no idea what he is doing there, but that is where he is. I almost emailed Mattie to ask what he was doing there, but thought better of it. You know Mattie would tell Paul and Paul would go off on a ego trip about me pining for him still which even though it could not be further from the truth, the idea of him thinking it makes me vomit in my mouth.
JP the elder was in town from Mexico a week ago. And since I happened to be home part of the week, we went out for drinks. JP it was good to see you man! JP says, "you don't keep up on your blog anymore." What can I say I'm a busy girl! I will try harder to keep this up. But I expect comments, lotsa comments JP!

Dan...was on vacation last week and didn't receive this until today. He was at the beach last week. The beach. The life of those that chose finance. I may have to rethink this one day. Danny and I had a good laugh over this one. I miss Saturday morning breakfast at Gleacher with Danny and a bowl of apple juice oatmeal.
All right, night owl is going to bed. In my now chilly hotel room (a story for another night) thanks to the Steele man!
