It occurs to me that I may not have said anything here about me getting an actual real job. For the last few months I've been working in apparel at a local department store. I'm still making the signs, but not as many and not as often.
Anyway, I've really enjoyed it. I like getting out and seeing people and I like helping people find exactly what they are looking for. Often, when I've really gone out of my way for somebody they ask me my name and then they walk away with a smile that suggests they are going to say something nice about me to somebody important. They never actually do this, but it's a nice feeling to have anyway. Even though it's not an earth shakingly important job, helping somebody find the right underwear or sweater, it's nice to feel like I made somebody's day a little easier.
Also, just in case you're interested, I lost four pounds last week. That's always nice.
