A Rose by any other name...

Listen,

When I started this blog, it was late one night and I didn't really know much about the Blogosphere. I have really enjoyed "getting to know" some new seemingly cool people through reading your blogs and your comments on this and other blogs.

Anyway, one of you seemingly cool people suggested that I change the name of this blog to "What About Bob's Blog." This was most likely due to a comment left on the "Kristin and Steve Sokol" blog titled "Ah-hoy" where I narrowly beat Dave to quoting, (or at least paraphrasing) the movie "What About Bob" which I have seen several times. At first I was like "No way am I changing my blog's name..." but then I thought "Huh, maybe I should change my blog's name."

Now to the point. The name of the Blog is now up in the air. In my last poll you (as a voting public) failed me when you overwhelming voted for us to not get any pet followed closely by a pig. As you know, or should anyway, we got 2 kittens, which was the obvious right choice. Despite this recent let-down, I am going to leave it up to you to help me. Please feel free to vote or leave a comment with an idea.


Thank you in advance for your votes and/or ideas. I put the fate of this blog, and thus my hopes and dreams, in your hands.

Good night now

No Excuse

Listen,

I know that I have no excuse for going so long without a post. However, I just wanted to keep you all up-to-date on the goings on in my life...

It is currently 1 am and I do have to work tomorrow, which brings me to my first big reason that I have been busy... I officially have only 3 more days of work at my Sav-On Pharmacy located in your Albertson's. This may be sad news to a few of you, as my hatred of my job at Albertson's is really what sparked this blog (see some of my earlier entries.) As of Friday, the 11th of July I will begin what I hope to be an upgrade of a job/career at RxAmerica. My job title will be Specialty Pharmacist. I will be over the "specialty" products which include most of the really expensive injections and other medications that you hope you never have to be on. It is more of a desk job with more regular business hours. There are definitely pros and cons to leaving my current job and taking a new one, but I am excited (well mostly excited, somewhat scared) to take on a new job that will be more "clinical" and less "would you like fries with your Lortab."


We also got two kittens last week!!!! Despite the overwhelming poll results we decided to bring two Siamese mix kittens into our family. They were born on May 8th of this year. So they share a birthday with my brother Steve...lucky you. We have had them a week now and they are awesome. We got a brother and sister from the same litter, so they get along well together and they love to wrestle and play. Brady gets so excited around them that he literally quivers. We named them Juno and Bleeker after the Juno movie characters. Juno is in the pink collar and Bleeker is in the black one. It has been so fun getting to know them and having them get to know us. I know not everyone loves or even likes cats, but these are some awesome animals. Sorry to go all cat crazy there. I have always had a cat growing up and I guess I am a "cat person." I turn into a big softie around kittens.

Anyway, if you are a cat person too, come on over and see them...

Well, I better go get some sleep, only 3 more days dealing with the crazies...

Good night now

Rock the Vote

Listen,

Please take time to help us decide on what kind of animal(s) we should accept into our home and into our hearts by voting in our poll question... it takes mere seconds, but the answer could have a lasting effect...
