my life in small blurbs

I am the Birdman... I am J.R (uhh)

Been listening to 'Feed the Animals,' the new Girl Talk album preeeeeetttyy much nonstop for the last month. It is amazing and makes me want to shake it like a polaroid picture...

Thanksgiving was LOVELY! I know most people enjoyed it for the 4 days off work and their families... I, however, have been unemployed since July and would have worked on Thanksgiving if given the opportunity. In lieu of a job that actually creates money for my bills, I spent the day with Will and his family, met his mom for the first time, and gorged myself on typical southern Thanksgiving fare. I LOVE COLLARDS! Literally could eat them every day! The food and relaxation must have done me in though, since I was in bed drinking hot tea by candlelight by 10:30.... laaame! Follow that up with 2 days worth of cooking soups to freeze, playing Battleship, and doing puzzles.... geriatric!

I was tentatively offered a job this week- pending references and a passed drug test. I did a jig in my kitchen over the news! Seriously, like a improv Riverdance.... Anyways, it would be an Admin Support system for the Regional Sales Team for Marriott. I think it will be a fast-paced job. And, while the pay is not amazing, I will have health insurance for the first time since I was 18, a steady paycheck, $20 rooms at any Marriott in the world, the ability to transfer within the company when I move out west, and plenty of opportunity for overtime. I think that combining this with other promotional opportunities will allow me to get back in a good financial place! So, fingers crossed!!!

I'm getting sick and have two parties this weekend that can't be missed. Must go back to sleep... but seriously needed to update!
