Weekend Update

But not the funny SNL kind-- though I have to give Will Ferrell props for being the best George W. Bush impersonator ever; I don't care who you voted for it's true.

Jeremy came in Thursday night, stayed through this morning, which was really great. I'm sad I won't really see him much over the next nine months, but since the mechanic's school thing was in part my doing... I can't be too upset about it. We were hoping that I could stable pony him down to Daytona from Atlanta since he didn't have anyone to ride with, that way we could get some things straightened up and ready for his parents to bring some more stuff down, then I'd ride back up with them through Atlanta (as it's the best way to go between Memphis and Daytona Beach). Now, however, it looks like they're thinking about doing it all in two days (down one day, back the next) to be back for something on Sunday and I'm not sure I can handle that travel schedule! Jan and Marc amaze me with their marathon driving schedules sometimes, I'm not sure I could keep up!

As much as I'd love to go down and see the place, I'll probably be up the weekend before Thanksgiving so I guess that's not too much longer to wait. Hopefully (everyone cross their fingers, rub lucky rabbit feet, all that jazz) I'll land a job at Bath and Body Works with Emily, and work like every shift Kendra needs covered between now and whenever-- she said if HR approves it (long story involving my previous employment under a lying, cheating manager at Victoria's Secret) and I'll work Thanksgiving and Christmas week then I'm hired. That would be... so very nice. I'm going to hold off on calling back on the GA Dems job (which apparently would alienate me distinctly from some people...), because even though I'd be driving to Gwinett, I'd probably end up making more money. And if there are two long days in a row, I can just stay with Emily.

Anyway, again, it was great having Jeremy here. We went to Sage on Friday for dinner and it was AMAZING, and then to Emily's on Saturday for the Grand Illumination. It wasn't extremely grand, but it was a nice time and we got to watch Silver Bullet and Van Helsing. Everyone loves a good cheesy Halloween movie. We went out for several walks, since Decatur is walk-friendly, and hit up Dairy Queen a few times. Also got to finish out Burn Notice, Season 1, which is awesome.

Not sure what else to say, just hanging out watching Heroes now, and I'm ridiculously excited about Halloween Office on Thursday.

Ciao for now!
