Weekend Report

I've been offline (mostly) all weekend, spending time with my hunny, Nap. I love spending time with him; it's so comfortable and wonderful and fun. We had a blast! We had a nice dinner of grilled steak tips from The Meat House on friday night, then we went stargazing. and no, that's not a euphemism for shagging (that was later), we really did go stargazing. He has a telescope and it was a full moon, so it was a brilliantly clear night. we saw the craters on the moon which were AWESOME!! i saw the rings of Saturn, Jupiter is really red, and Mars is BRIGHT!!! it was sooooooo cool seeing these through the scope (and even more fun spending the time with Nap!).

Saturday we ran around doing errands since he left for a week in Vegas this morning (lucky bastard.....it is "work," but it's still Vegas...). we stayed that evening and had chinese food - we found GOOD chinese food in Lowell (there's hope for that place yet!). Sunday I had to vacate the premises so his kids could come over for an easter egg hunt, so i spent the time being productive and cleaning my car, looking for jobs, etc. the rest of the day was spent hanging out and watching/helping him prepare for the trip. it was sad saying goodbye; i so wish i could have gone with him. but he'll be back next week, however i still won't see him until after my show on friday night - total suckage. :( sad panda

anyway, today i didn't have a teaching job, so i spent the day trying to find temp agencies in Lowell, to no avail. i found 10 places online, but NONE had websites - kinda fishy if you ask me. I went to 2 of them, both were closed. so instead of running around town trying to find the others, i decided to call - 5 were out of business, one didn't speak english, one was labor only, and the other seemed kinda sketchy. So total loss.

i shut down - i mean, talk about discouraging - so i had a quick meltdown, the decided to head back to Boston and hit a few agencies there. I had MUCH better luck!!! i met with 2 agencies, both which said they could help me - one even has a potential job in Lowell! i sent them my resume online; let's hope i hear from them soon!!!

so yeah day started off crappy, but ended on a good note. and i even got to spin!! yippee!! i'm so proud of me - it's been about a year since i started and i got a few compliments tonight about how good i'm getting. i'm a LOOONGGG way off from "good," but i'm happy with where i am compared to where i started. go me!!

tomorrow: no idea. no sub job yet, but i have a feeling i'll be getting the call in the morning to go in last minute. this is the major issue with this system, but whatever. soon i won't have to worry about it; i have a good feeling about these agencies.

and now, i'm off. more tomorrow.
