Hello Kevin!

So apparently Kevin is the only one out there who reads this... or the only one I know about. So hello to you Kevin! I hope you are having a wonderful day!
Still working at wonderful Sunrise Honda! It really is a great place to work. I can't seem to get over the fact that I, Math-retarded Katie, have a job that focuses completely on math and numbers. It honestly blows my mind.
I have been steadily making better friends with people at work. That is another thing that really blows my mind I guess. You think that everyone is very happy with their jobs because we all seem so happy, but it seems to me that at any given point of the day, at least %90 of the employees are ready to walk out. Its not really that bad I guess, but they all have their reasons. Brandi is sick of people telling her she is messing up. Nancy doesn't like to hear Rachel and Missy go at it. James is tired of being shuffled around from service to parts. Levi is sick of Frank. Justin wants to go back to Honda instead of being stuck at Yamaha. Its just all very weird for me to hear I guess. I enjoy my job, and the people I work with so when people tell me they are going to quit I get sad, like a part of our family is giving up, but what can you do?
Anyways, Justin says I talk too much about work. So what else can I talk about? Justin, Kara, Levi and I went down to the Flying Saucer week before last, hung out and played pool. That was a blast. And then this weekend Levi, Justin, Tommy and I went down to the river and hung out. I stepped on glass and my foot started to bleed... a lot. It didn't hurt at all though, but the guys were worried. Ummm....
The only reason I am up at this hour is because I slept a large portion of today... I took two benadryll last night to help me sleep through the itching of the bites I have all over my legs... that was a large mistake. That stuff puts me out for a really long time.
Adam is sick. Nothing too serious, just like head cold sick. I feel bad for him. He starts school tomorrow.
That is pretty much what has happened in a week. Sarah is coming on either Friday or Saturday. I cant wait. It has been a long summer without her.

Till later.

The Next Morning.

It was end of month on Thursday. 15 hour day at work! Everything balanced in the end though. The owner of the store came and gave us pep talks and told us how proud he is of us. I'm grateful for his talks cause it make me fell welcome into this new job.
Christi (one of our financial managers) and her husband Brian (a salesman) threw a huge party. It was fun. A lot of talking, drinking, and pool. Basically I nursed one cup of beer for about 3 hours while I watched Levi, Will, and Brandy get drunk off their asses. Then Levi poured his drunken heart out to me. All together it was a good night.
Adam had his last show of the season last night. They tell me it went really well! I'm so proud of him. He has a real talent when it comes to light design. I want to put pictures up somtime, but I will have to find them first.
I hope everyone is having a good week so far.

Update!

It has been a while since I have actually updated.
Things in the Colvin household have been very busy! Adam is working at SSDT. Matthew moved in with us until school starts again. And I got a job.
Sadly I was not justified in my desire for the high school job. I found out about it only after Daniel had given me phone call. It turns out they thought I wasn't "talented enough." Talk about a hit to my ego. The school board decided that they didn't need a theatre manager, and that their janitor could do the same job. Honestly I think it was a poor decision on their part. They had a top rated theatre program, the drama kids had won state competitions several years in a row. How is a janitor who has never even been to one of the school productions going to be able to create and build what the standards these kids are used to? It's just very hard to swallow.
So after that blow, I went on a frantic search for a job. Thanks to Megan's now ex-boy I applied for a job down at Sunrise Honda... and now I am an accountant.
Its been a weird adjustment for both Adam and I. I work long hours, but it is worth it. The people I work with are very nice, to use a cliche its like a large family. Its hard work, but I think Ill be ok. Till the next time.

Facebook

Ah the joys of facebook. The place online where you can keep up with the friends you have now and reconnect with ones from the past. Translation: the place where you can stalk the people you know but don't really want to talk to on a regular basis and see how the people of your past are doing soooo much better than you.
This past week has been seeing people that I went to high school with and how their lives have turned out so far. Most are married, have great careers, and/or are pregnant. What?! Now don't get me wrong, I am very happily married to the love of my life so I have one out of three. Maybe it is just me. Its not like I choose a profession that has a lot of money or the most job openings, and I really don't feel like Adam and I are anywhere near ready for kids, but it is just weird to see these people that I havent seen in years having kids.
I don't know it is just weird to me. Ill get over it.
