Bookworm
Hi everybody? How are you all doing? I hope all is well and not too snowed in for us East Coasters. I’m doing good. I don’t know what I’ve kept you guys up to date on and what i haven’t so i’m sorry if i overlap (and don’t capitalize my i’s). I left stop and shop for good. It turned out to be a bit of a messy break up in the end because the higher ups at stop and shop are jerks. They decided only to tell me at the very last minute that they weren’t going to let me step down to a lower position. But i’m getting past it :). That was a few weeks ago. I’ve been sending my resume out to places…mostly publishing companies, and I just started working at barnes and noble again while i wait for a job. I just can’t get sick cause i don’t have benefits. In other news…i’ve been reading like a mad woman. It’s mostly been mindless romance novels–a lot of nora roberts. And, for all of you who love her (dawn especially) her new trilogy is amazing. The third one comes out in january but craig works at the company that publishes her books and he might be able to get me a galley copy :-D. I was thinking, we should start our own book club…maybe i’ll get my own website again and do it like a book club…i dont’ know how much time we all have for reading though. I’ll keep you posted. Hrmmm…what else? Tom is doing great. He’s working more than full time at CVS and he seems to really like it. (he likes organizing things and that’s all he gets to do all day long…i think it’s his own little heaven). He took a test to work for US customs. I don’t know when the results come in though. Theresa is still out in California, however Ryan will be leaving. He’s not happy out there and apparently being with the one he loves just isn’t enough so he decided to move back to Wisconsin…before christmas. I’m sure you can all guess my feelings on the the subject so i won’t elaborate here. Oh, and, you guys have to go see the Elf…so funny and heartwarming at the same time. I think that’s about all for now. I miss you guys so much.!!!!

Jen, I love the book club idea! Romance novels rock–I don’t know how women survived before they became socially acceptable, do you? Good luck with the publishing search–I know how much fun it is sending out resumes (can we say NOT fun). Elf is actually playing in our dinko little theater here in St. Helena this week, I’ll have to try and go see it! I miss you so much and will keep my fingers crossed for you with the new job search! xoxo Shira
