I'm back and better than ever...?

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

After a 2.5 week hiatis I am back from traveling to exotic places. I'm not yet at 100% (jet lag, ya know) but I'm feeling pretty good. I had an awesome time in China and I am going to create a blog just for it...stay tuned. What else...I'm tired, even though I slept 16 hours from 7pm on Saturday til Sunday (not straight, mind you, but in increments...) I'm at work and trying to catch up. I did get something very nice today...flowers from Jason.... how sweet!!! Pretty pink roses with tiny purple flowers mixed in.
By the by...I didn't get that job I applied for in OKC :( Found out while I was in China. Boy was that a bummer!!! Oh well...I'm sure I'll find something else!!!!

Later...after a few more zzzz's... J

HOLY MOLY!!!

Holy Moly! I'm down to one full day before I go to China. I'm not even packed yet!!! AAAAaaaahhhhh! Granted I have the essentials laid out ready to be put into the luggage. AND I have my list of things to take ready to be checked off. I'm not nervous yet, but will probably get that way on the way up to the airport. I've travelled overseas before with a group of people but not by myself. There's always a first time!!! Can't back out of it now.

Well Friday was a friend's birthday and he requested that we all go see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. It was good and a little more scary than last time. The frustrating thing is that it left you hanging and now we have to wait for the third installment. It WAS good though!!!

Saturday I got up and drove to OKC not just to see my sweetie but also for a job interview!! (which was actually on Monday but why not drive up early if you've got someone to be with!!!). Hopefully the job will come through, but if not, there will be other opportunities...hopefully :-)

Sunday we went to church, then to IHOP and watched a woman get arrested in the parking lot. That day I also did some reconissance work on the museum I interviewed at. It's pretty awesome. The Chihuly exhibit is spectacular. Also Thomas Moran's Sea at Sunset is beautiful.

What else....I'm running around like a crazy person trying to get things at work in order before I leave. I've just now had time to type up something real quick. That's about it! Let me get back to work!

Zaijian! (Until I see you again)

Happy Fourth and other happenings...

Happy 4th of July everyone!!! I'm actually working today and I have no problem with that actually. None of the senior staff is here, so that leaves me in charge of the museum...which could be a bad thing, really HA HA! Nah, we'll see how it goes. I chose to work today and take off yesterday so I could spend an extra day with my sweetie in OKC - southside.

Well let's see....what's been going on since my last posting... oh yeah! I bought new luggage for the China trip, woot woot...I love it. I've used it too. Good stuff.

Praise the Lord, the wagons are finished! I (actually we) have been working non-stop on the Dr Pepper wagons and we moved them to the courtyard last Friday so the weekend visitors can see them! I must say they look pretty darn good!!! I never thought I'd say yay, I don't have to wear jeans to work!! I can dress normal now!

I hot footed it over to OKC on Friday to see Jason and his new apartment and just spend as much time with him as possible because in a few weeks we are either going to be out of town or working on the weekends... Maybe that will change soon... Jason's parents came down as well as his sister, the nephews and the sister's boyfriend! A full house!! It was good though. Some of us went to see Sue the T. Rex at the Sam Noble...very cool. Had din-din and then saw the fireworks at Tinker AFB. Fun! Sunday was spent laying around and swimming in the pool. Monday it was almost time to leave when I received a phone call about a possible job. We'll see how that goes. Cross your fingers!

8 days to go to China (not counting today or the day I leave). :-D

Have a crack-a-lackin' time today and tonight! Be safe!
Jessi
