Keepin' on keepin on.

For those of you who didn't see my Halloween costume, here I am as a Mexican Calavera/Sugar Skull! >>>>>

Well, week one of my job went great! I really like the culture and my fellow emplyees, I also really like being up, active, and interacting with customers all day. The manager types all seem pretty pleased with me - I had the highest items-scanned-per-hour of anyone in my training group. :P Pretty soon I get my discount card and we'll be getting %10 off groceries and a bunch of other stuff.

Everyone is buying turkeys and cranberry sauce, so I have to figure out if I want to try and cook or we wanna just eat popcorn and candy instead. I have both Thanksgiving and "Black Friday" off, so I'll be able to get my lounge on.

Boone has an interview tomorrow, and he's got more applications in. We went out for our friend Christopher's birthday this weekend. Newport is a small town, so we pretty much got to monopolize the karaoke machine. Good times. I miss everybody, especially my folks and my roommates and other dailys in ABQ.

The Newport Public Library rocks! I'm so thankful. Yay for public internet and free dvd rental, not to mention a way to feed my insatiable appetite for fantasy. Anyway, much love and cute kitten for everyone - Lyss Out!

P.S. Thank you IVY, for the prompt and adorable postcard. LOVE YOU!!
