New Beginnings

It has been a while, but in my defense, I've had a lot going on. The last few months/weeks, Jimmy and I had been talking about me getting a new job. Working for The Creative Group (TCG) has been great, but it certainly hasn't been without its stresses. While I am well aware that all jobs have a certain amount of stress, I kept wondering about the importance of a proper work/life balance...that was something that had started to slip away a while ago. So, I came into contact with some great people who set me up on a couple of interviews with a Search Engine Marketing company. To make a long story short, yesterday I accepted a position as an on-site project manager and I start on Monday!

So, here's to a new chapter in my life...as expected, there is a certain amount of nerves and anxiety, but I'm definitely excited about what's in store for me.
Let's see...what else is going on lately? Well...on Monday and Tuesday of this week, Jimmy's parents were in town so we could go to a few Yankees-Rangers games. Here are a few highlights (and lowlights) of the games, etc:

Monday

• Our seats were 31 rows up from home plate
• Joba Chamberlain pitched 5 decent innings and then was taken out due to shoulder pain. Come to find out, he has some tendinitis and was placed on the 15-day DL.
• Hot dogs and beer for dinner...America's greatest meal!
• Walk-off Grand Slam!! (Too bad it was for the wrong team...the Rangers)

Tuesday

• Dinner at Big Joe's Pizza in Euless...that place is the only thing that makes the town of Euless worthwhile!
• Our seats were 29 rows from home plate
• The Yankees couldn't seem to get their bats to work until too late in the game...Richie Sexson did hit a Grand Slam...maybe he is moderately worth something
• Jimmy caught a foul ball!! (It was coming straight for my face)
• Yankees lost again...oh well, it looks like it's gonna be the first year since 1995 that they won't make the playoffs. No biggie though...my CUBBIES are gonna go far in the playoffs (fingers, toes and eyes crossed)

Now, I'm off to enjoy my 4 1/2 day weekend! I promise to give updates on the new job!
