President Obama:

I can't say that I'd taken a huge interest in this election. Not to say that I am not happy that there is this "change" I'm just waiting to see if the real changes come. I will say that I am estatic to have Bush out of office and start fresh and new. I've been watching my DVR'd week of Oprah and she's been discussing the election for the past week on her shows. It's kind of sad really to me though because on the show everyone is so excited, so happy, so moved, so inspired. I don't feel it. I feel bad that I don't, that I feel somewhat indifferent. I don't feel that connection that everyone else feels. It's weird. I will say though that after watching the different segments, and being part of my online class, it does make me want to be more involved in things at least on a local level. Unfortunately, given my current work schedule, I can't attend city council meetings, but I am looking for a way to get more politically involved locally and to voice my opinions and help set change. Any ideas?

Update:

Classes are going great. I'm doing really good. Work is good too, although a bit exhausting. The 5:30pm-2am schedule is a little much, but I'm getting used to it. I applied for a secretary position for City of Titusville starting at $12.75/hr. So keep your fingers crossed for me. It'd be a great opportunity and would put me back in an office again, which I love. So we'll see. Today is Nick's (12th?) birthday. We'll be heading over for lunch and whatnot to celebrate tomorrow.

First day x2:

First day of work went pretty decently, I just hope I don't let them down. There are a lot of products to learn. But I'm definitely going to do my best, and I already get along great with everyone except one person, which isn't like a bad thing, it's just that I don't really know her yet.

As for school, I'm a little intimidated but I think I'll be able to keep it under control. David was able to pick up my books for my one class today but the book for my other isn't available yet. Hopefully it will be soon though. Starting tomorrow I've got to make sure I get three chapters read before Sunday night for the chat, and I need to post a discussion board posting and respond to two people before Sunday night as well. I think I can do it though. I'll have tomorrow before work, which I'll have several hours, and then I'll have Saturday, which currently we have no plans, and I'll have Sunday afternoon as well. So it should be okay. It's just going to take some getting used to.

Excited about school now, well at least one of my classes anyway. The other isn't available online yet. Nervous like crazy about the new job. I leave her in like 2.5 hours, and I just hope I do well and that it works out. Agh. So much for one day. And I had an aweful night's sleep, but at least I was able to finally get in a 3 hour nap a little while ago. Hopefully it helps. Anyway, gonna go eat before I have to start getting ready to head out.

Job interview:

Yay! So not to get too ahead of myself, I'm about to have a job interview, and it already seems pretty promising. Not necessarily what I want to do forever, but it's at least something, and it out to be pretty fun.
