Today at work I had my first ever "I'm not getting deported" celebratory cupcake.  It was delicious.  One of the therapists got her visa and decided to bring in cupcakes to mark the occasion.  I like my new job.  It's office work, but still everyone is really cool there, it's semi-normal hours and I'm getting that stupid office experience every ( Read more... )

Finally...I got a new job.  Well I should say, another job.  If possible I'm gonna keep my kitchen job too cuz this new one is only about 15 hours a week.  But it pays more and I won't have to see naked old people and touch grody things!!  Also, Mike and his friend Josh officially started construction on the house (building the foundation walls) ( Read more... )
