No More Lip Service

It's been a couple of days since I've blogged. Actually, I've written a couple of posts, but I couldn't get a picture to upload right, so I chose not to put the post up. Anyway, the last couple of days have been eventful.

After discovering a house that we liked, Ragged and I kicked our move in to high gear. We've rented a storage facility and moved several carloads of crap to it, scheduled a meeting with a realtor to list our house as well as scheduled a go-see of a prospective house. We've initiated the search for a good mortgage and we are getting our financial ducks in a row as well. It finally feels like moving is going to happen after years of talking about it. It still could take some time but at least the ball has started rolling.

Today I found out I didn't get the job I applied for. Some advice, never believe a rumor and more importantly never get your hopes up because of one. I have to admit I'm disappointed, but in a strange way I'm relieved which tells me this wasn't what I really wanted. Anyway, I'm glad the suspense is over. Onward and upward.

Tomorrow is by birthday. I can't believe it's the big 3-5 one. I will accept the baton from Brando and pass it to Needles soon. I guess I could curl up in the bed and be sad about being old and missing out on a job, but Cynical will rise above and triumph regardless of what comes his way. That being said, I may reserve a day this weekend for a pity party. Tomorrow I must attend a luncheon in celebration of my birthday and my also ran status.
