Insert Interesting Title Here
So I'm too tired to care about coming up with a clever title. So you guys can go ahead and make up your own. heh
Lesse, what's new? Went on a job interview yesterday. It was for a position in our training department. I've always wanted to teach and the corporate training field pays pretty well. I think it went well, though I have to make it through two more to be considered. Next I'll have to meet with the head of the training department. If I pass that round I have to do a working interview. I'll have to take about 15 minutes to teach a group made up of trainers, back office workers, and some higher ups anything I want. I figure I'll teach them how to play no limit hold 'em. I think everyone should know how to play that. Hopefully I'll get that far. Keep your fingers crossed. There are a lot of people applying for this position, both internal and external, so my chances are slim. Especially since I have no real training experience. I'll keep you posted on that one.
Fran and I had our third session with the marriage counselor yesterday. (Yeah, I had a full day.) We did something called geneology charts. She wanted to see if there was a pattern of behaviors that could be traced through our family trees. I already knew the answer to that. HELL YEAH! So, I told her that my mother's mother was an alcoholic and severely depressed, my mother's father was pretty much an enabler. My father's father was an illigitimate child of a cheating mother, who was a cheat himself. My father's mother had severely low self-esteem. She put up with his father way longer than most would have. I would say that I'm most like my mother's mother. Addictive personality, depression, mood swings, low self-esteem...you name it. Anyhoo, there was so much crap about my family that we ran out of time and barely scratched the surface of Fran's family. We'll be starting up there next week. As interesting as it all is...tell me something I don't know.
Andre's b-day is coming up. I can't believe he'll be 1. It seems like I just brought him home yesterday. He's walking better and better every day and getting a lot more verbal too. He still doesn't say words (save for mama and dada, but they don't seem to mean mom and dad) but he's making a lot more sounds. He's also pointing to things a lot. Having a boy is so much different than having a girl. By now Kimi was saying three word sentences...but she didn't walk at all.
My b-day is coming up as well. The big 28. I don't really know how I feel about it. I mean, I know 28 is far from old, but still I feel like time is slipping away from me. 10 years ago I never imagined being 28. I can't imagine now being 38, but I'll get there faster than I realize. What have I done with the last 10 years? How have I progressed since turning 18? Yeah, I'm married, two kids, yada yada. But I don't feel like I've really gotten anywhere. Still struggling financially, still depressed and miserable all the time, still making the people around me miserable. I wonder if the next 10 years will be the same.
Ok, enough of that. My birthday wish this year? I want a chihuahua. I will name her Jezebelle and dress her up in little sweaters and take her with me wherever I go. :) Now, the problem will be convincing Fran. Hmmmmmmmm...
Till next time....
