All Work...and No Play.


Okay, first off, I admit to neglecting this blog for over a month. I believe the last thing I posted was about having the Pre-K teaching job....EPIC DISASTER! But, I made it through and survived to tell the tale, get paid, and never look back. Lesson learned, I am not made to work with kids under the age of 4.

Luckily, My old Assistant Manager from American Eagle called me while I was doing the subbing job and offered my a pretty sweet position at Gander Mountain. By the end of the week I was hired and have been working like CRAZY ever since. Its a great job and I am still able to take subbing positions on my days off, which is nice, but for the most part I'm working full time at Gander. Its really laid back and the other employees are a lot of fun to be around.

Kevin got his Aggie Bling on September 17th. His family came in and he did his ring dunk that night with 5 of our other friends. It was an amazing time. I love spending time with his family, and I felt lucky to have been able to spend such a special occasion with them. Football and Bonfire also started that weekend. So, in the end, the weekend was quite an event.
Since then, Football has fallen to pieces. And for something I have loved so much for years now, Bonfire has been sitting heavy on my heart with how pathetic our dorm's turnout has been so far. No one talks about it, but everyone who has been around for awhile is thinking the same thing, and its hard to watch the years of hard work disintegrate in front of our eyes.

On to happier things. Kevin and I went to a wedding this past weekend in Houston. He was a groomsman for an old HS buddy. We had a good time, despite the wedding being 'dry,' but it was nice being able to put faces with some of the names I always hear. Kevin's friend, Mike, is always fun to be around and we hung out quite a bit while Kevin was off doing groomsman stuff. As usual though, I took some pictures, but didn't get anything of myself. Go figure.
That sums everything up though. I'll try to keep up with things at least for a little while.
