I LOVE FOOD!!
The days I work I drive past jungle pita, and for the rest of the day that is all I can think about; so today I am going to blog about food. I love jungle pita I have only been there once, but it was pretty amazing. If any of you have a good receipt for humus? Send that my way!
Tuesday… Mark’s parents were in town and they invited me to go to dinner with them we went to an Italian place. It was great! They were really nice; his mom loves unrefined coconut oil!!!! Wednesday… I had an interview at State Farm, it went really well. So my friend Jake took me to Applebee’s, my salad was amazing! I get to take a drug test Friday and I need to pass a background check, then I am pretty sure I will have the job! YAY something full time, paid vacation. Sarah and I are thinking about moving in together in September, a bit closer to where I will be working if I get the job and better location for her rotations, which could be fun!
I am starting to have mixed feelings about turning 22. Next Friday I will let you know if anything changes in my life dramatically! My roomies say we can do anything I want! Now I just need to figure out what I want to do. Hmmm? Swim in our neighborhood pool, watch Enchanted, while eating some pita jungle?!? That would be an amazing day!
Congratulations on the new job! That is awesome…would you still work at the doctors office? Or will you just be able to have the one job? Congrats!
