What I am up to lately

Apparently the pictures I was going to upload are still on the camera, and as the camera is who knows where, you will have to make do with my thoughts instead. I started my new job as a T-Mobile employee last week. I am in training for 4 weeks before they actually trust me to answer phones. I feel like I am in high school again, only this time I am a good 6 or 7 years older than everyone present. I am feeling rather bitter about the whole thing simply because this is the end result of thousands of dollars on a college education- in horticulture no less. Oh well, T-Mobile has some pretty killer benefits including incredibly cheap healthcare with vision and dental included, a daycare stipend and a kickass phone plan.
In case anybody is wondering, I haven't been running in at least a month, I made cream cheese walnut cookies last night that are 200 calories apiece (thank you Martha Stewart), and have been eating an ice cream bar a day. Damn, I am on a roll...

Oh no. What happened with the job?!?

If you had to leave to get something with benefits, here's to a major revamping of the healthcare system.

If you decided horticulture is not the path for you, here's to your new path.

And if they fired you, fie upon them, the bastages!

I was laid off, let go, they were going in a different direction, I was part of a permanent out placement. Yep, fired on a Friday, with five minutes notice. Why is it considered polite to give two weeks notice to a job, and yet they can lay you off with no notice at all? Oh well it was a pretty crummy situation there anyway...

Did you decide to substitute one ice cream bar a day for jogging? :)

I found these mini ice cream bars the other day. Give you a little ice cream fix but only 80 calories.
