T-Minus 1 week till I leave with my roomies for alumni!

So I'm in a much better mood these days. Especially since I have a place to go to and things to do sometimes now that I'm training for work.
Things are improving around the house I think. Things had been a little awkward recently, but last night was definitely a grand time. Except as Audra pointed out she likes it that me and Linds are both here cause we make each other tell stories and what not. Linds kept bringing up boys in my past (for example Ryan Oklahoma and the night with Creed and Kyle forever ago). So then I had to tell Audra to ask Linds about Phi Tau Brian. It was quite humorous.
Last night was my first night training at work. It was fun. It's interesting cause I'm still trying to figure out the rules and what not. But I train again tonight from 2-10:30 then tomorrow from 7AM-3 then Saturday from 2-10:30 then Monday from 2-10:30 then I'm done with in house training. My co-workers seem really nice and there seem to be a lot of younger people so I'm excited about that. And they were talking about how when the kids go to bed at 8-8:30 and your shift doesn't end till 10:30 you should spend this time (obviously keeping somewhat an eye on the kids - but one person is really in charge of that) talking to your co-workers so that you don't take the job home with you and so that you can get out things that bothered you.
There was another guy training with me last night. He's from Japan, but then he lived in San Francisco from ages 4-10, then back to Japan, then New York for college, then here. Interesting life huh? He was really nice. I'm training with him again tonight. I think we may become friends which I would be excited about. Then I'd have my first friend in Colorado.
Kevin e-mailed me last night and it was hilarious. I read it when I got home from work and I almost fell out of the chair cause I was cracking up at him. Then Linds wanted to read it cause I looked so funny reading it. I'm so excited to see them all when I get back. Michaella, I haven't asked him yet about a place for alumni cause he just e-mailed me back and I was waiting for that. Although now I don't want to e-mail him and ask him for a favor cause it makes it seem like that was why I told him I'd take him to lunch and stuff. So we'll see. How desperate is the situation? Do we have a place at all?
What's fun is when I get home and my roommates are doing homework and I'm like "Oh isn't that adorable? You two are doing homework!" And then I proceed to play on the computer and tell them what's going to be on TV this week and how it must be rough to still be a student and everything. And tell them that maybe one day they can be grown up like me and not have to do schoolwork anymore! (but only if they try hard and study a lot) And overall just torture them while they try to get work done.
Well I guess I better shower and eat lunch and what not before I head off to all of these wild kids! I'm going to need my energy for sure. I don't need to train for alumni - all the races, and basketball matches, and pushing of the merry-go-round are training enough.
