Not Engaged Yet

I has a job!

So nearly 7 months after graduating, I finally have a job! w00t!

I'll be a veterinary technician at a local no kill shelter's spay/neuter clinic. I did two working interviews and really liked the environment and people there so I think I'll be quite happy there, though it'll take some adjusting to not be trying to maintain AAHA accreditation as I did in the previous hospital I worked at. And until we're able to move I'll be driving 50 minutes each way but...eh. I'll live.

Yay job!

    Thanks all!

    Lucky for me, I grew up in a teeny tiny mountain community, so I'm somewhat used to giant commutes to get anywhere. But it's been awhile, and it means waking up at 5am for quite awhile when I've been waking up at like, noon for the past 7 months :P

    But oh well. I'll adjust and be quite happy! And finally have savings! I haven't had that since high school :O

    At the risk of sounding like a creeper, can I rub your head for good luck?
