work and the bachelorette

Michael has now completed two full days of work... and from what I can tell, he loves it. But maybe that's just me.

His favorite things about work:
one. his very own hard hat and goggles.
two. a security badge.
three. the fact that he can go up to a vending machine with those sweet sunglasses in them and swipe his badge and get new ones as often as he would like.
four. his steel-toed boots.
five. he can't take any pictures at work, but he even gets his very own office. with a nameplate. he's a big deal. 

He's a hard worker. And he's sure excited about having his own projects and contributing. And he took a test last night, which wasn't that fun, but I got to go with Sonia to a Bachelorette showing with a bunch of the women in the ward (they are a hoot!). If you want my opinion, I don't think I like any of the guys. Ryan's a scum bag, Chris is immature, and Doug the Dad [thanks for helping me out, Laur :) shows you how well I was paying attention!]is too good to be true. We'll see... next showing is on Monday :)

Monday and Tuesday, I spent a lot of the day at the pool and trying to find a job. Job hunting is not quite as fun as I imagined it. Especially in this New Orleans economy... even the fast food jobs are taken. Sonia and I walked around the mall, and I tried beignets and the hot chocolate from Cafe du Monde for the first time.

  1. It's fine that I stalk this blog..anyway. I have a slight and strange addiction to the Bachlorette. Do you mean Doug the Dad? Yeah, he's a little too perfect. Anyway, I miss you already.

    1. For some reason I couldn't really get into Arie... They just make out. Haha... but I've definitely only seen one episode, so I'm up for changing my mind :)

    2. Also. I was so excited to reply to your comment that I forgot the most important part! As soon as I come back we'll get together. For reals though. We need to have a little high school friend party soon.

  3. So...I'm reading along, enjoying the blog and then, for just a moment I couldn't figure out why Aly would be saying such negative things about "the guys" when I realize she is talking about "the guys" on the show! [blonde moment] (I didn't think it would be like Aly to be so critical of the locals.) If I actually watched the show I'm sure I wouldn't have missed a beat. Ha-ha-silly me. Any who - Michael, I'm glad to know your toes are protected & Aly, I'm a little jealous about the beingets! xoxox ;)
