got it

I was hired for the new best buythis past Friday. I will soon be ending the long pizza saga of my life. I probably won't be piutting in my notice at Domino's until the last minute, if at all. They'll "notice" I stopped showing up.

I'm still not too sure how to feel about it. I guess the job will speak for itself. Means to an end really, I'll eventually get to the point where I only need to work my day job with the school. Then it's an easy sail to retirement.

I played Nathan for the first time at chess yesterday. We are 1-1. I'll admit he is probably the better player, but I never get to play "real" opponents and he may very well be smarter, definitly more educated. Here comes the rivalry........just like the street fighter days. Hell, it's all in good fun and I look forward to it.

After the game we talked politics....for HOURS and never really agreed, well, I lie. I do like his viewpoint, and I think we agreed on my key issues, but I just think we see the way to get there is different. I would have love to hear Paul's views on the subject, he tried, but he was SOOOOO wasted by that late hour.

Speaking of looking forward to things, I'm going to help Robyn go get her kids tomorrow. We are going to Nothern Virginia to meet her relatives halfway. Then on Monday we are going to some caverns then back home. I hope I bring enough cash for a few lottery tickets, and then I hope I win. We'll return in a Hummer, if not it'll have to be the Maxima. At least the company will be good either way.

I guess as far as the BB job goes, I don't consider it a step up so much as preserving my car while I finish (start) my BA in education so I will only HAVE to work at one job. Who knows what the future holds. But I know I'll be glad to see it when its here. I think that's the secret to life. Preparing for the worst, hoping for the best, counting your blessings, and working towards your goals.
