Happy Fat Tuesday everyone! Once again the fantastic day of debauchery and pancake eating is upon us, followed by those wonderful 40 days we Christians call Lent. This year I have decided to give up things that are bad for me. The list is as follows: fast food, liquor, snacking, shopping* and sweets. (*There is an exception to this one. As soon as I land a new job, I am treating myself to that cute dress from Anthropologie that I’ve had my eye on for a few weeks. Maybe it’ll be on sale soon.) What are you giving up for Lent?

Speaking of the job search, I had a third round interview with a company that I really like this morning. They took me on a tour of the place and introduced me to people– always a good sign. I also just got an email from a company that is just down the street. Hopefully I’ll have an interview this week. Choices choices! I’m ready to go back to work.

And my last bit of news– my great uncle, Van, died yesterday so please keep my family in your prayers. This is one of the great-relatives on my dad’s side that I actually had some sort of relationship with. The doctors thought he was going to die on Christmas day, so they took him off his support, he got better and managed to make it this far. As family members gather, I may be called on to chauffeur family around.

I’m off to my wine class. Cheers!
