Time Flies

Whoa, I lost track of time pretty quickly. Last week, we celebrated Easter with my family and attended mass. The strangest thing happened though. We had a lost dog on my parent's porch and he would not leave! We came across many animals (lost dogs and ducks crossing the street!) on Easter, almost like Noah's Ark. Anyways, the lost dog on our porch was a Golden Retriever and had to be around 80 lbs. or so. I think he spent a total of 12 hours on our porch and the poor guy was soaked from the rain the night before. I couldn't have been happier when animal control rolled around to pick him up so that he would have a nice dry place to sleep. The good news is that the owner posted flyers in my parents neighborhood and there was a safe return for Dexter!

I had a few job conversations and ultimately landed an in-person interview this past Thursday at a healthcare search firm. My fingers are crossed for a second interview/job shadow. I felt things went really well, but it was my first interview in a very long time. I also went to a job fair for CareerBuilder that ended up being a total bust. I am now out $10 for valet parking and wasted my time standing in line for 10-12 mediocre companies. My hopes are still high to find some work soon so that I can help pay the bills and keep my mind and hands busy. Meanwhile, I am enjoying my time off and trying to relax as much as I can.

My grandparents are coming back to the States and should be arriving next Saturday morning. I can't wait!
