Let me start by saying Happy Valentine’s Day!!!  We just had a love steak dinner with the kids with sparkling cider in fancy plastic champagne glasses.  It was yummy. 

I have been temping for the same company for about six months.  We had planned to move to Washington since California is way too freaken expensive.  Well, when I told my boss that he wanted to know what he could do to make it possible for us to stay.  He did what he could and Monday will be my first day as a true employee.  I’m excited because this is a great company and great opportunity for a real career.  I will have the ability to get promoted and work my way up.  Most of the companies I have been with before I had to wait until someone quit to be able to move up and that never happened.

We also may be able to buy a place this year.  It wouldn’t be anything fancy, but it would be a start and it would actually be less expensive than renting our apartment, by a lot.  So that would be good. 

School is going well.  If I can get my electives in line, I should have my bachelor’s degree in a year.  I received my fancy associate’s degree about a month ago.  I may be overwhelmed this coming up year.  My poor Xbox may miss me.

I’ve become seriously addicted to Lego Star Wars.  I’m at 99.8% complete.  After I finish the last super storey, I will have completed the game and gotten all the achievements.  I’m looking forward to Lego Indiana Jones.  I’m definitely on a kids’ game kick, but I’m having fun and that is all that matters.

Ok, back to watching Nacho Libre with the family.  The kids never saw it...
