Welcome to My Mind

Birthday Lunch

My friend Ashley took me to Miller's on the seawall for a birthday lunch since she had plans on my birthday.  It was nice to see her before I leave to Lafayette. 

Late Night Birthday Dinner

My friend Ron lost his keys to his car and house so I picked him up from the airport (the hobby one not the IAH over an hour away).  It was already late so Ron took me for birthday dinner at pancake house.  I can not say no to cheese omelet and pancakes.

I Am In

I just got a call from the Vice Chancellor and he offered me the music professor position at South Louisiana Community College. I have a job finally.  Now I have to move quick in order to make it there before classes start.  I guess I am going to live in Lafayette, Louisiana which is Cajun country.

Happy Birthday to Me

Today George came by to hang out.  Then went to my birthday dinner with George and Beth.  I also got birthday calls from AD, Jennifer and Chrissy.  A text from Kimberly and a lot of happy birthdays from my friends on facebook.

2nd Interview

Today I went to Lafayette for my 2nd interview at the college.  That is a good sign.  I think it went well.  Now we wait.

Bye and Thanks Mom

Mom left today to go to Spokane for an interview.  I was really fun having here and really helpful in helping me clean up a lot of my crap. Thanks Mom.

Boxes and Kansas

We did a lot of relaxing.  We go through my cassette tape boxes downstairs.  We then watched the video I took when we moved AD and JK to Kansas and went to the large zoo there.

Elissa

Today we relaxed.  I took her to the old ship Elissa from the 1900's which still sails today. Mom thought it was very interesting and fascinating. We then walked around the strand. Mom then took me to eat at Yomatos for a Happy Birthday dinner.  Thanks Mom.

Went Through More Boxes

We went through the 2 boxes under my bed and the boxed on top off my filing cabinets.

We are finally finished upstairs cleaning. Finally done around 8p.

Finished Cleaning the Computer Room

We spent most of the day in the computer room. Just about all cleaned up. Showed Mom the movie the Illusionist while we ate a late dinner. Took a trip to Goodwill again.

Interview Time

I had my interview today.  We went to CC's Community Coffee House to relax before the interview.  I had a blueberry muffin and Mom got a coffee.  I really hope I get this one.  It might be my last shot to teach at a college until next year.  We then went to Lafayette visitor center, picked up some stuff and say space plants (they looked like something out of a science fiction show). Then started on the road. After 2 hours towards Galveston we stopped at a Cracker Barrel to eat. Then on the road again. We hit some hard rain, thunder and lightning which made driving slow but we eventually got there.

Off to Lafayette

Mom and I drove to Lafayette, Louisiana today. We stopped at the Louisiana visitor center and ate our sandwiches that we made this morning. Checked into Travel Lodge. We ate dinner at Hub City Diner. Delicious food. It is a 50's dinner Cajun style.  We then drove around the city to get a feel of the place.

Cleaning the Closet in the Computer Room

Today was cleaning the closet in my computer room and a box full of old cards.  Birthday cards, Christmas cards and other cards.  Went through them all and kept only the ones that had meaning.

Cleaning File Cabinets

I got a call today for an interview on Thursday at South Louisiana CC. Today we cleaned the file cabinets in my computer room. We went through papers and old bills in my file cabinets.

Cleaning Bedroom Closet

I made made pancakes for breakfast. Then we went to Target and Randall's. We cleaned in the closed in my bedroom. I got rid of a lot of old t-shirts.  I made pasta for dinner and we watched Twister. 

"We've got cows!"

"Another cow."

"No, I think that is the same cow."
