Freakishly Happy

Hey All!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry that I haven’t been regularly updating. Things have been a little crazy here. Since we got back in early November, I really had nothing going on… but because of that I was a little depressed and had a cold and I was sleeping for oh, 16+ hours a day ( which really left no time for blogging). I’d been looking at all different kinds of jobs, but wasn’t able to really settle on one till last week.

On Monday John and I went out for a date to Oyama, a Japanese restaurant in Iowa City. Afterwards we went and looked at some puppies at PetLand, a pet store in the same pavilion as the sushi restaurant. I inquired about a job, and got an application. I went in on Wednesday and again on Thursday and talked to the managers and the owners and by Friday I had a job. I started yesterday. My official title is “Puppy Counselor.”
My main (and pretty much only) duty so far is to get puppies out for people and talk about our service plans.
Man oh Man do we have cute puppies. But really what puppies aren’t cute? (I can actually answer that, the “monkey dog” puppies… not so cute.)

I have a lot of really fun co-workers and think its going to be an interesting place to work. Several of the people are fairly cut-throat, though. We make a commission on what we sell. I haven’t really gotten the selling bug yet, but we shall see…

John is also doing well. He got some pretty kickin’ new monitors on the Black Friday sales after Thanksgiving. He worked really hard for them though. He went and stood in line after 2am.

Well, I’ve been on my feet for a long long time and I’m ready to go to bed.
I will try to keep you more updated now that I’m on worlds best anti-depressant- PUPPIES!
