So where was I tonight when Nick Swisher hit another grand slam?
AT THE WHITE SOX GAME!!! Yea baby!
Now I am still all about my Cubbies, but I like the Sox and I loooove Nick Swisher. It was awesome times. Plus the entire upper deck did the wave twice! I was so excited. I love and miss the wave.
Good times.

Who wants to go to the beach sometime sooooooon? (after I am no longer burnt)
I have one vote from Shane, Chancy, and myself so far.
I think it'd be fun to get a nice little group there.

That's what I feel like saying to my x-employers.
Was just told today by my new awesomerific boss that he's giving me my own office at our new place.
I win.
In other news, I have a problemo. I have Switchoot tickets and the other day Shane surprised me with Jim Gaffigan tickets... both of these events are happening on the same night. I've never seen Jim or any really good comedian before... but these are seriously the best Switchfoot tickets I have ever had and this is through over 10 years of attending concerts. I seriously managed to get the best seats in the house... front row, center. I do NOT want to pass that up. What do I dooooo?
I'm waiting to hear back from Jon... if Switchfoot is playing last, there's a chance we can see Jim first and still make it to see SF's performance.
But if not... I DUNNO! *goes insane*

Chancy: Once women have babies Colt stops listening to them.
Colt: Couldn't you just see me hitting a woman with a baby, wanting to know why I can't hear them?

Colt: OH! No not hitting a woman with a baby, hitting a woman WITH a baby... as in she has one! JEEZ get your commas right!

Saturday, June 7, 2008
So as some of you may know, I'm starting my new job on Monday!
I had a working interview on Thursday... which is where you go in and work the full day... 9-5 and you decide if you like it and they decide if they like you. ... Well we were all in love! I was crazy nervous about it for a few days but no more than 10 mins after I got there, I was already telling jokes and dancing around and feeling completely at home... which is hard for me. Most people know I can be VERY shy around new people.
And after like 3 patients, I was already jumping in and doing pretty much everything my job will consist of. Though the dental software they use is COMPLETELY different than what I worked with at the other office... I learned uber fast. So almost immediately after I came back from the lunch break, they offered me the job. Dr. Colby said I was assertive and really knew what I was doing and everyone loved me.
Sooo compared to my old job... I'll be making more money here, my position is fancier, there's a No Gossip/No Drama Policy (you have NO idea how bad it was at my old place of employment... every workday was worse than a soap opera), and instead of working every single saturday, I will be working every other Saturday... that is when the summer is over. Until then... NO Saturdays! Every weekend is a 3 day weekend! AND it's like 5 minutes away from Shane... plus they're opening another office that's even closer to him! Lunch is at 2... which is perfect because General Hospital is on at 2 and I can just drive to Shane's and watch it!
I also had another working interview on Friday which was a nightmare. The place was so unorganized and no one could explain what they wanted me to do. (every Dentist prefers things a different way and uses different products) And man, I was not expecting the procedure I had to assist. I've assisted plenty of surgical procedures before (extracting teeth and cutting the gums and whatnot) but this was was much more in depth. The doctor I worked for before only had the tools and time for wisdom teeth cases that were simple... everything else was referred out... so apparently the guy I worked with the other day is one of the ones that people get referred to.
It. Was. Gross.
The wisdom tooth was so hard to get to, that he had to slice a huge freaking cut into the person's cheek! And then it still wouldn't come out so through this hole, he had to dig at it with the drill. So in order to assist this complicated crazyness, not only did I have to work with 2 different types of suction at once, I also had to hold a tongue retractor in there too. So there I am, working with three things at once and only 2 hands while this heavily sedated (and very much asleep) patient is getting his mouth freakin torn apart.
And the amazing part... in the end the tooth came out perfectly whole and when the dentist stitched him up, it looked like nothing had even happened. Soo I gotta say.... despite the disorganization and horrible ability to communicate... the man was freakin awesome at his job.
But yea, I'm sticking with the other one. I just wanted to share my gross/terrifying experience. I felt like I was being thrown from the profession of dental dssistant to surgical nurse with no warning.
In other news... apparently there were tornados and floods and all kinds of crazy things happening everywhere on the planet and it somehow completely passed my town and Shane's.

So almost immediately after I came back from the lunch break, they offered me the job. Dr. Colby said I was assertive and really knew what I was doing and everyone loved me.
Sooo compared to my old job... I'll be making more money here, my position is fancier, there's a No Gossip/No Drama Policy (you have NO idea how bad it was at my old place of employment... every workday was worse than a soap opera), and instead of working every single saturday, I will be working every other Saturday... that is when the summer is over. Until then... NO Saturdays! Every weekend is a 3 day weekend! AND it's like 5 minutes away from Shane... plus they're opening another office that's even closer to him! Lunch is at 2... which is perfect because General Hospital is on at 2 and I can just drive to Shane's and watch it!
I also had another working interview on Friday which was a nightmare. The place was so unorganized and no one could explain what they wanted me to do. (every Dentist prefers things a different way and uses different products) And man, I was not expecting the procedure I had to assist. I've assisted plenty of surgical procedures before (extracting teeth and cutting the gums and whatnot) but this was was much more in depth. The doctor I worked for before only had the tools and time for wisdom teeth cases that were simple... everything else was referred out... so apparently the guy I worked with the other day is one of the ones that people get referred to.
It. Was. Gross.
The wisdom tooth was so hard to get to, that he had to slice a huge freaking cut into the person's cheek! And then it still wouldn't come out so through this hole, he had to dig at it with the drill. So in order to assist this complicated crazyness, not only did I have to work with 2 different types of suction at once, I also had to hold a tongue retractor in there too. So there I am, working with three things at once and only 2 hands while this heavily sedated (and very much asleep) patient is getting his mouth freakin torn apart.
And the amazing part... in the end the tooth came out perfectly whole and when the dentist stitched him up, it looked like nothing had even happened. Soo I gotta say.... despite the disorganization and horrible ability to communicate... the man was freakin awesome at his job.
But yea, I'm sticking with the other one. I just wanted to share my gross/terrifying experience. I felt like I was being thrown from the profession of dental dssistant to surgical nurse with no warning.
In other news... apparently there were tornados and floods and all kinds of crazy things happening everywhere on the planet and it somehow completely passed my town and Shane's.
Where There Are No Cars
Tuesday, June 3, 2008
I’d like to snuggle up with you… in a small crater on the moon.
We could get nice and warm and cozy and drink some hot tea while we watch the stars.
In this place, in this lack of atmosphere, I’d like to rest up ear to ear.
With you I’d like to take a walk… across the moon and step on rocks.
We could dance around them with our simple feet and smile and flirt and be all sweet.
In this galaxy, in this outer space, I’d like for you to gently kiss my face.
And while the rest of the world below us is busy, there are no cars here.
There are no jobs to do, there are no mean people, no silly attitudes.
There is no tragedy, or bumble bees, there will be no solitude, and there are no cars too.
I’d like to be stranded here with you… no place else to travel to.
We could love and laugh and play and with our tongues we’ll say “I love you.”
In this sky, in this pretty universe, there will be no use or other words.
And while the rest of the world below us is busy, we have the stars here.
There are no jobs to do, there are no mean people, no silly attitudes.
There is no tragedy, or bumble bees, there will be no solitude, only us and the stars too.
