Why I am moving south!

Today is my final day as an employee of public service... I would like to thank my future former employer, The City of Boston, for this lovely reminder:

"The Boston Public Health Commission advises the following precautions to stay warm and avoid the dangerous effects of extremely cold weather:

- Wear layers of comfortable clothing and warm boots or footwear that protect your feet.
- Cover exposed skin — especially ears, hands, and other extremities — as skin is vulnerable to frost bite at such low temperatures.
- Keep moving if working or playing outside.
- Avoid getting wet, and avoid walking on frozen ponds or lakes as ice may not be fully frozen.
- Drink warm, non-caffeinated fluids.
- Keep Pets Indoors."

Unfortunately it was -6 degrees yesterday with so much wind that I swear my train was almost pushed off the tracks (or maybe not but you get the picture, so these kindergarten-like reminders of how to stay warm were not enough! I must move to at least Washington D.C. to get minimum 10 degrees back in my life to unfreeze the blood in my veins.

Today I am being taken out to a (hopefully) lovely goodbye lunch, finishing my work (or letting my mind wander to figure out what to wear tomorrow!), and heading home. New, fancy, corporate job starts Monday! Hurrah!

P.S. I mentioned in yesterday's post I needed ideas on how to spend $100... No worries Micheal Kors and I figured out a way to spend much much more than that silly hundred :-P

Let the good times roll...

I burnt my mouth on boiling tea today! I was so impacient and took a huge gulp and killed my mouth. My lips got swollen and the roof of my mouth started blistering. Gross!

Now that my lips have unswelled from this morning, the insides are still all wrinkley from shrinking.... still gross.

Besides all the tea drama today has been prety good! My first professor apologized for giving us "word salad" meaning a bunch of terms all at once. The phrase was unexpected and very funny in the moment.

My second class had a very energetic and young professor who looks like he will be a good time. I love when classes teach in a non-boring way. At least if I accidentally forget coffee one morning, my chances of falling asleep in class are slightly less (but hopefully I wont have to test that theory out).

I also signed up for fitness classes again. These stop me from my boring, unproductive gym sessions where I just walk around confused. :-)

Yet another great thing that happened today.. I got an interview for Monday! I am sure I wont get the job, but an interview is proof that my luck is turning around!! YAY!

FINALLY... ITS FRIDAY. So its time to take my cycling class, shower, get beautiful, and head out! Have a great weekend everyone :-D

Fall Foliage

Oh Fall. The beginning of classes... the never ending job hunt... the awesome professors that make me love life... the crazy ones that make me hate it...

Wish me luck :-)
I hope everyone's having a good week! I will post more once I am back in a semi regular schedule. My days are filled with Moster.com, shameless resume spamming, and some classes scattered in between.

P.S. Next weekend is my birthday! We have decided on a "White Trash" Theme. So many costume opportunities! Any suggestions?
