Wow, what a week and half! It all started with a visit from Emily two Fridays ago. She was in Houston for an interview and they were willing to put her up Friday night, so I drove in to Houston and we hung out that night at the Houston Greek Festival. Good food, good dancing, and kalamata olives. What more could one ask for? (Well, maybe more kalamata olives, but that's about it!). Then she called me on Monday to say she'd been offered the job! Yay! She's still interviewing, but if she takes this job, it'll mean she's 1 hour away as opposed to 21. Even if she takes one of the other jobs, they're in Dallas, so she'll still be quite a bit closer.
Then, that very same day, I got a call from Andrea. She had called me on Saturday, and I knew from the message that something was up, but I didn't get a chance to talk to her until Monday. Sure enough, something was up. She and Ben are engaged! Yay! We have all been waiting . . . and waiting . . . and waiting! ;) I'm so excited for them. Plus, she promised me to not have the wedding during turnaround, so I should be able to go to it. I can't wait!
Well, I should probably stop fussing on the computer, but I just figured y'all (practicing my Texan ;-P) would like an update!
Arrivederci! (OK, so now I'm practicing my Italian!)
