I’m going to Trader Joe’s later today. I’m really excited because I absolutely love that store. The food there is so good and cheap. It’s like a cheaper Whole Foods. Everything is so fresh and organic. I guess I might be biased about TJ’s because I did a paper on it. I know the whole history about this store. If you guys live near a TJ’s, you should DEFINITELY go. They usually have samples for shoppers. One time I had a piece of a raspberry torte. It was so good, I ended up buying two. Haha.

In other news, I think I need to buy some new clothes for myself. I think I deserve a little treat. Also, since everyone at my new job wears jeans, I think I need more casual clothes. Perhaps I’ll go shopping on Black Friday when I’m at 0% tax Massachusetts. Speaking of Turkey Day, what are you guys planning on doing? I just found out yesterday that we get the Friday after T-Day off. I’m so excited. This means I can go to Boston with my family and join the food festivities. I get to see my cousins! Jane will be letting my sister(s) and I stay at her house. It will be nice. We’ll be cooking on Thursday. I hope everything goes well. I hope we coordinate everything so we eat a reasonable time, rather than at like 10 pm on Thursday. Haha.

One of my new co-workers is having a birthday party in the city. A lot of people have asked me and the other new worker if we were going. I really don’t know if I should go since I don’t really know the co-workers that well. Plus, wouldn’t it be weird to be out on a Saturday night with your two new bosses? I wouldn’t want to make a fool of myself and get fired! Maybe if I can find someone to go with me, it would be better. We’ll see if I go.

I have cardio kickboxing at 5:45 pm. I can’t wait. I feel like a big fat slob. I need a good hard workout. Tomorrow we’re going to go see the second Bridget Jones. I hope it isn’t too bad. I want to see so many new movies, but I don’t have the time. Current movies on my list are: Garden State (still), the Incredibles, Polar Express, American Treasure, and a lot more that I can’t remember right now.

Anyway, I have to go. I hope this update was adequate enough to satisfy your needs.

I can’t believe I’ve been working here for four days already. I admit that there is a lot of work, but it’s been pretty exciting. Eight hours flies by when you’re busy working. This is a complete opposite with how my temp job was. I remember how I used to spend hours just browsing the Internet at that job. Now, I barely have time to do anything. It’s pretty cool to have people ask me to help them out. I feel useful. Anyway, you guys must be wondering how I have time to update. Well it’s my 15 minute lunch break. I thought I would reward all my hard work with a short little blog. Well here it is guys. We get to have birthday cake at 4 pm. Woohoo!

I’m pretty tired now, so I just wanted to give a short update about my weekend. I had a great time with my CMU friends last weekend. I never realized how much I missed my school. Steffa and I survived the 7+ hour trip to Pittsburgh in the dark. I-80 is such a scary highway to be driving late at night. There are so many trucks and no cars. It’s pretty intimidating. I was the navigator/map girl. I did my job well. We looked for Roy Rogers to eat at for dinner, but the only one we knew of was in Breezewood. We ended up settling for Arby’s. Mmm! I ate a lot of delicious/unhealthy food that weekend. My friends had a Thanksgiving pot luck, and there was SO much food. Grace made a 20 lb turkey and it came out so good. We were pretty impressed with ourselves.

I started my new job today. I’ll try to give you guys the details tomorrow. It started out badly, but I think it ended pretty well. In other news, I’m up to using 2 rises in my step aerobics class. Who’s hardcore now?!

Good night!
