No life!

I got a job! I'll be serving full-time at Lonestar Steakhouse and Saloon. Let me just say that Normal really is Normal...there is nothing out of the ordinary...not a lot of cool little spots. I really hope I can meet some fun people at work...this no friend thing is driving me a little nuts, especially when I live in the same house as my parents! What was I thinking??? Free Room and Board...right...I just have to remind myself that this is only 6 months out of my life...I can get myself all organized for Chicago! Yay!

I can't wait to have more of a life here though!

BIG MOVE!!!! First driving day!

I started my trek on Thursday leaving Calgary quite teary. I made it back to BC safely, and spent the evening going through old things and packing some things to bring. Yesterday my dad and I re-packed the uhaul and I had a very low-key open house goodbye party.

This morning I was at the border in line before it opened at 9am. When it was finally my turn I had a tiny hickup where the border guard wanted me to write down the value and place of origin of EVERYTHING I was bringing in so he could let me know how much duty I needed to pay. Thankfully in the middle of doing so, the guard came back with more information and let me go without any further hassle! YAY!

AND NOW, I've finished my first day...a few hours earlier than I had hoped. I-90 was closed just after Bozeman Montana, so we were re-routed back into Bozeman, and if I wanted to go all the way to Billings tonight...it would have taken me double the time from here to there...executive decision was to get a room in Bozeman...only I went into a hotel and they had no rooms...they told me there was only 1 hotel with rooms available because of the road closure! THANKFULLY I did get a room in that motel: the Lewis and Clark Motel. I had to sneek my cute kitty in the room...hope I don't get caught!!!

Well, hopefully I can catch up on some time tomorrow!

Love to all!
