Okay, just a note, for those who have or may attempt to call me, that we're having phone trouble here. Our phone is a cordless house phone, and apparently lately it's developed a tendency to randomly remember it has no cord, and deduce from this that it must logically, therefore, revert to an inert lump of plastic when removed from its cradle. Of course, it cannot be used while in its cradle, either. In fact, cradled or not, it often lacks the strength to ring when someone calls, instead simply letting the answering machine pick up without warning. *sigh*

Today I went to an interview at the Auburn Wal-Mart. They offered me a full-time job, 11am to 8pm Tuesday through Thursday and Saturday and Sunday, as a Maintenance person. I accepted it. The pay is twenty-five cents more an hour than at Wendy's, with a good possibility of periodic raises after three months.
However, I'm feeling bad that I'll have to leave Wendy's. They have been good to me. I'll at least give them two week's notice so they won't be caught short-handed. I was right to take the job, wasn't I?
Logically, it makes perfectly sense to take the full-time job. I think I'm just nervous because there's a risk. I have to give up something to get something else. I've never been good at that.
Peter and Jennifer's wedding is tommorrow. I'll be gone most of the day for that, I expect, but probably home by sometime in the evening.
This weekend is also the Great Falls Balloon Festival in Lewiston. I'm going downtown tonight to see the sky over the Falls full of colorful hot-air balloons. (The test run balloons I've seen were few but beautiful. ) I'll probably also be eating carnival food while staring upwards. (I think that's the one last Summery thing I haven't done all season-- attend a fair.)
Things are still up in the air. Old time is still a-flying. Other wise-sounding metaphors for enjoying the Now and having hope for the future. be well.

It's now looking like my roommate's plans to migrate to Massachusetts have been put on indefinite hold due to worsening health problems. :( (If anyone is in the business of praying, I'd appreciate it if you'd pray for her health / mobility / vision and hearing. I don't think she'd say no to a miracle right about now. )
