on the road to residency

So I left the last post kind of short and sweet and left out a lot of details.  I'll try to fill them in here.

I have a job.  I start next Monday working for the company E-Commerce based in San Diego about a half hour from where we live.  I will be answering phones for ProFlowers and Red Envelope customers, taking orders, dealing with problems, and blah blah blah.  I train next Monday through Friday.  I am still also waiting to hear back from a couple other places as well.  I believe the E-Commerce job is full time but it is only seasonal, however there are opportunities for corporate positions such as their product photography department.

Lisa and I got our California Drivers Licenses today as well as our Motorcycle permits so we can drive our scooter that I just purchased today!  Woot!  Its a 150cc Honda GY6 engine inside this frame:

I don't know what any of that means, but we're pretty excited.  We aren't getting a blue one though I don't think.  Lisa has to pick out the color yet, because I frankly don't care.  We had to take a California Driver Written exam and a California Motorcycle Permit written exam too.  Now we have to take a full motorcycle driving test eventually to be able to have a full license.  But we can practice with our permit on our bike.

In other news our Mattress popped a hole last night around midnight.  So we took evasive maneuvers and repaired for the night with Duct Tape.  Then this morning I picked up a tire repair kit and viola!

It took a couple tries.  Hopefully it holds all night otherwise I am not gonna be a happy boss.

Other than that I got to take out my boogie board I bought at Goodwill for 6 bucks to the Ocean earlier tonight.  It was around 85 degrees out, the water was much colder but it wasn't to bad once you got used to it.  The waves were way to high though for a novice like myself (6 to 8 feet) so I just kind of putz'd around.

All in all things are going really well, we're just rolling with life as it comes.  Lisa is enjoying her job in the Framing department at Michael's and is excited to see what See's holds next week.
