Achoo.

I am sneezing a lot this morning.

I bet I am allergic to Michigan, better get out soon so that I can stay healthy.

2 Days left in the mitten state.

RTE I am counting on your visit.

Tourists for a day.

Answer me this.

You get to erase 5 bands from the history of music. Who do you choose?

I have a home. Chloe needs one.

Well it is official now I have a home in Colorado Springs.

Yesterday Kellie and I put a security deposit down on a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment on the north end of town (the better end apparently). It's a really nice place brand new carpet, counters, wood burning fireplace, and best of all full size washer and dryer!

I am moving in at the end of the month and Kel should be shortly afterwards.

Now for why you are looking at a picture of my gecko... the apartments do not take reptiles or exotics and we have already talked them into taking a leader dog puppy on top of our two animals so I need a home for my dear gecko.

She is very easy to take care of some crickets a couple times a week, she uses the same corner of the tank as her bathroom all the time so clean up is easy. And she's way cool.

Someone adopt her please. I hate to leave her but this is a better way of doing things, we already have to hide a ball python in the place.

We are also looking for a home for Herb the Sulcata Tortoise...he gets big though.

Cleaning it out.

I have started the process of cleaning out my room. This is shaping up to be very difficult, in addition to packing I have a lot of choices to make as to what parts of my life now go into a trash bag and what I keep.

See the problem is I tend to keep a lot of shit, a lot of shit I don't need.

One interesting find I did have today was a coffee mug, this mug came from Camp Copneconic. Yep I took a mug call the cops. It was one of our brown mugs for coffee that never held enough you know what I'm talking about.

Now on this mug I wrote Camp '04 as well as a quote and I feel that 4 years later this quote sums up just about everything that I have dealt with.

And it Says....

"If I could I would do all of this again, Travel back in time to where we began."

Summer of '04 where we began, where life started, and I grew into the adult I am today.

Quick Quick Like a Fox.

Just a quick note, I enjoy when I get comments from Ghallagers mum in England when I have no idea where he even is at the moment.

Get it, got it good.

Well the verdict is in and as of this afternoon I have been hired!

I will be taking the position of Studio Manager for a JCP Portrait studio in Colorado Springs, Co.

The shocker of this is I am starting right after labor day, so I have 3 weeks to get my shit together and head 1300 miles to the left.

Kellie is currently looking for a job in the area and will be coming out shortly behind me as it stands now.

Words can not describe how excited I am.

Interview.

Today was the first day of the rest of my life.

That's pretty philosophical huh?

I had an interview today with Lifetouch Phototography. It went really well and I am very confident about the outcome.

If I got this job I would be moving to Colorado, just as planned and I would be running a store that is very profitable...which in turn could help me to profit. So things are looking up.

I have to give credit to all that I have learned over the years through camps though, while it was a business type interview I found myself referencing a lot that I had learned while interviewing at camp. I talked about how I enjoy what I do and that's what makes me successful. I feel like this really helped. I let him know who I am and why I do what I do..

So now is the waiting game.

If only it were this easy.
