Oregon Trail

Pulsing ocean greeting me
Silver screens with stars
I look over my shoulder
Wondering who you are
This is this and that is that
You say let's take it slow
But gone is gone and then that was
A long, long time ago
(I. M.)

Well, I officially got the job! J's mom was very cool to say the least. CJ describes her as "an old hippie" which is a compliment in many ways. :) She was very interested when I told her I do human rights/prison work and even wants to hook me up with a friend who does the same thing. The car was no issue at all. Whew! Even though I already "had" the job in most ways, still, the mom could've seen me today and really been turned off by me. I had to laugh as J kept saying all through the interview, "I want her to work, Mom, I want her!" I was very flattered. I think the fact I'm a friend of CJ helps me enormously. J already has signed me on for a good many hours and even wants me to come to Oregon with her and R at the end of Sept. We'll see about that. It'd certainly be awesome, and I've always wanted to visit the Northwest, but I'm pretty sure it might run into my Texas trip, so....Maybe I'll attempt the Oregon Trail another time. ;)
