Hello all you bloggers! Today is July 30, 2007. We're almost done with the month. On to August! With the summer nearing a close (doesn't feel like it) we have a few things to remember before the end of the sun's reign. It's almost time to gather in the last of the crops, before they burn up. Remember to store up now for the autumn and winter, it seems we will see quite a winter this year. After all of the rains and hot weather in parts of the USA....Does anyone catch the change in climate? Has anyone else thought about the subsequent difference in weather patterns this year? I am just wondering if I'm the only one that has noticed...
Anyways.
I went to Virginia on July 16th for a job interview and came back on the 17th. I got to fly into Washington DC via Denver from OKC. I was only there long enough to stay in an overpriced hotel for one night (Holiday Inn Rosslyn, I will not patronize your establishment again) You were overpriced, snobby and otherwise down right rude! I realized this information all too late, not that I was in control of my reservations mind you, the company interviewing me was the arrangement side of things. Alas, they paid for my flight there and back, which went rather smoothly all things considered. I was slightly worried about all of the checkpoints and TSA, but everything went off without a hitch. Surprisingly enough, they did not tell me to remove my tube of toothpaste, even though it was over the 3 oz maximum, nor did they ask about my over sized bottle of contact lens solution (12 oz) go figure. ;)
Well, I signed the contract with a good company, referred by a good friend of mine. I will be flying back out next month to train and go from there.
More on that topic later.
Peaceful Monday!
