Life is beautiful

-I had my 90 day review today at work. I knew that things were going well, so I pushed for full-time (with benefits). And it looks like that should be happening in the next month! I can't believe it went so well... I am so happy here and happy that they like having me here.

-I am getting a massage after work today. Hooray! AND, I found a way that I might be able to get super cheap massages through my insurance... I'm talking about a 75% discount, people. I'm all over that.

-There is actually progress in the doggie adoption department. I had an interview with a shelter over the phone and it looks like they will be scheduling a home visit. I originally applied for either an Olde English Bulldogge named Socrates or a Boston Terrier named Tuesday from the shelter. However, I told the woman over the phone that I really want to work with the shelter to find a dog they think will fit well with me. They have a few dogs not listed on the site that are possibilities as well. It might still be a few weeks before I get a dog, but I'm really thrilled that the process is actually moving along!

-I'm trying to blog more regularly, so I may or may not be doing more opinion posts related to news stories. 'Cause, you know, I'm never short on opinions ;)

So hey, the economy may be going to shit, but life's good with me!
