Is that where the phrase "cup runneth over" comes from, perhaps?

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

*giggle* No more Lollards for me, Ursa.

I got a job! Okay, it's not a great job, but it's a fun job. I'm working at a discount clothes/shoes/housewares/junk/etc. store, but hey,

IGOTAJOB!!

That was the whole purpose behind moving from Florida to Texas in the first place, of course (see my blog for details My Latest Adventure ) and while it's minimum wage and only part time, it's exactly what I had in mind. If experience has taught me anything, it's that life is not about stuff, it's about fun and love and being with the people you love most (have to include my Chronic Friends in that group) because you really do take everything for granted when things are going well.

I start on monday as the fitting room clerk. I wonder if they frown on going into the men's side and peeking under the doors?

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

Congratulations, WW.

(And it depends what you count as a frown, WW....)



Note: the link to your blog does not seem to be working: I'd contact the Administrator directly but I have a phobia about PC-based mail (when it's my PC, that is).

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

Thanks Ursa. Darn, I usually test them first. I think it has something to do with it being a draft, which I tried to make a regular blog post, couldn't figure it out, and gave up.

*dashes through the snow to find j.d.*

EDIT: The link works for me, Ursa. Hm. Can you go into my blog from the link at the top, or perhaps from my profile?

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

I can't see that blog in the Blog List; I then did a blog search and found three of yours, but not that one.

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

Having now read the blog, I'll double my earlier Congratulations.


(And given the importance of the job, I have to say: "Stay away from the Dark ... er ... men's side.")

Hey, I'm married, not dead. But yes, given the importance, I'll try to behave.

Re: Shout your happy news to the world!!!

I GOT INTO UNI!!!

And it was my first preference too. The University of Notre Dame to do a BA of Arts. Hopefully going to major in English Literature and Philosophy.

Also I graduated yesterday. It ended twelve years of being at a Steiner school. Twas indeed a sad day for me but I guess the rest of my life will be just as good in many ways.
