i MUST apologise for the huge time span between posts here. i also need to apologise for my bad spelling, here lately, im not writing this out on word (since i dont have it on my or dans computer) then pasteing my finished product in here as i usually do. we'll see how long that lasts. the DC expereince was horrible. but i must say the public transportation is really good, once you understand it. and yes mom, i felt very safe on it. and the people were really nice, i even had someone on the street ask me if i was lost, and helped me with directions! i mean, yes, there were some looneys, but i just didnt make eye contact.
but as far as dropping off my resumes; 2 of the place had moved offices 4 of the places said they would take my resume, but there wasn't anything they could do with it, and that i had to go online... gee thanks, cause i haven't done THAT yet.. yeah thanks. and the one i actually WANTED to go to, the US green building council, i couldn't even get past the lobby. no joke, i couldn't get in at ALL. PLUS, they wouldn't take my resume to give to someone up there. i nearly cried right then and there. why is this so hard? THEN i ended up on the WRONG side of Pennsylviania Ave, which NO ONE should have to experencie that (still, even in the ghetto, people were nice- but i think it's because looked like a social worker, whatever). oh man, what a day. then i got on the train back to odenton, and i sat next to a guy who said that getting a job should be easy for me. i wanted to punch him.
but thanks everyone for the good wishes, i really appreciate it, and they made me feel so much better after realiseing how truly hard this is gonna be.
i did go on a job interview on friday, it was for an HR position not far from the apartment. but there are a lot of applicants. so i'll be calling them to check in on friday. until then, i have a pplied to a bunch of other places as well. ill keep everyone posted.
Dan and i ordered our couch and our house is coming together nicely. picture will be up soon.
my nephew is crawling now! im so proud of him!
rocky and i spent the day with our friend michelle and her pit bull chico yesterday and rocky made me SO proud! he did really well with chico and all the other dogs. we went to the doggy park in annapolis, it was so nice, there was even a beach. well, kinda. it was on the chesapeke, and the water is brown. but rocky didn't mind, he was just happy to run in the water. then on the way out, there was a really nice "spray down your dog area" so they can ride home clean! it was great! we had such a good day.
lastly, i wanted to add for nanna, when janet scott and mom came up, i recived some of nannas brownies. well, dan took them into work a couple weeks ago and the were gone in a matter of minutes! thank goodness i saved some for myself.
