About 30-45 minutes outside of Austin there are several places to "go tube", and yesterday I went with a few friends for the first time. What I experienced was a mixture between an extremely relaxing ride in a inflated tractor tire tube, and the biggest frat party I've been to since freshman year of college.

Hope it goes really well, because for previously mentioned reasons (and more to come), I can't stay where I am much longer. However, I'm really broke so it's not like I have much of an option as far as not working. Not sure where all this money is going, but I think it has something to do with all these miscellaneous wedding expenses, shopping around SheMovedtoTexashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01062200290148658096noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018474503222589578.post-21942032896091807702010-08-24T23:38:00.000-05:002010-08-24T23:38:12.264-05:00Morning Mayhem of the Corporate WorldI'm doing something I never do, because I think it's dumb. I never bitch about my job on a blog, ever. You write it on the internet, and it will come back to you.

There's no justification for it, only that my new job is really mentally draining and that it's Friday night. I went out for happy hour after work with some co-workers and the fiance, and that was fun. Later hubby-to-be and I strolled downtown in a Car2Go, which I will post about later when I'm more coherent and will SheMovedtoTexashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01062200290148658096noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018474503222589578.post-50298962760159587202010-07-05T20:11:00.001-05:002010-07-05T20:11:28.494-05:00End of a long weekendThis is what our local watering hole looks like at the end if a nice holiday weekend.Yes, that's a diet coke.

So Martha Stewart stole a bunch of money and I'm not entirely sure that she actually has a soul, but the bitch has some good ideas. Earlier in my life I'm pretty sure I vehemently denied supporting anything Martha'esque or even house keeping/hosting in general, but I have to say that these days I absolutely love being a hostess.

Here's a collage of crappy iphone pictures of the BT. Sad to say, I've been working on taking these snaps for a collage for a handful of weeks... mostly while she sleeps next to me on the couch while I pretend to work. Yes, she is giving me the evil eye in most of these. Yes, that's pretty much her normal expression. It's a hard life to be a BT.

To his credit, he's a good sport and we tried to go once but it was sold out. Luckily for me, his mom wanted to go see it too so we headed to the awesome Prytania Theatre in New Orleans.

Low and behold, I got an interview last Friday and a job offer came with it. So, here's the big obligatory WOOHOO. Now that I have secured employment, I'm actually a little sad that my slack lifestyle will be ending shortly.

Right now, that doesn't mean a whole lot unfortunately. I have about three more weeks that I'm working for my job remotely, so my days are spent with a laptop on my lap watching re-runs of America's Next Top Model, applying for jobs, and doing some web design.SheMovedtoTexashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01062200290148658096noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018474503222589578.post-5869631009302309372010-06-20T22:35:00.001-05:002010-06-29T15:09:47.546-05:00TacossI know, there's been a long absence. I spent most of last week feeling like death, somewhere between the "oh my god I can't keep my eyes open" of mono and the "I'm so green i make kermit look like a joke" stomach flu. I call this the "I've moved to Texas and discovered I'm allergic to tacos", because it all started with these.
Those are breakfast tacos.

The rat chased me and my flash light to bite me, so it was probably rabid.. but I decided large amounts of neosporin would cure rabies.
This rat also later turned out to be a muppet, which I tried to dispose of by flushing down the toilet and cutting various body parts off of (think van gogh,SheMovedtoTexashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01062200290148658096noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018474503222589578.post-54348696659184368042010-06-10T23:05:00.001-05:002010-06-29T15:10:36.175-05:00Homebody goes out in Austin: Fireants, Split Rayfield and some band I didn't likeSome background about me. I'm kind of a homebody. I don't think I always used to be a homebody, and I actually don't like the term homebody (I prefer to say that I'm very good at entertaining myself) but between moving a few times and not having any friends in the area, I'm perfectly happy staying at home watching bad television, playing with my dogs, and doing artsy dorky crafts.

Tonight we walked to a bar near our house that has just glowing yelp reviews for having good food (Why my fiance thought going out to dinner sounded better than tofu pop hot dogs, I don't know). So when we sit down at Gibson's I don't know anything about it besides "They have really good food," and as I look at the menu it's pretty clear why they have really good food - SheMovedtoTexashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01062200290148658096noreply@blogger.com1
