Day Dreaming:
I tried to post this last night but blogger wouldn't have it. So here we go again:
Today was a very interesting day. I got a call from a company just outside of town, that I had sent a resume to awhile ago. They wanted to see me at 4pm. I had sent the resume so long ago I had to really research to figure out what company it was and what the job was. The job was for a customer service person. Basically telemarketer. Being that I had another offer on the table in the medical field I was not really keen on getting this job. But I put the resume out there I might as well go and check it out.
When I got there I was interviewed by the customer service manager. It quickly became apparent that I was way out of her league. Skills they where not looking for. I was beginning to write off the whole thing. Then in comes the CEO and the President/Lead programmer. They introduce themselves. And start shooting questions at me. How do you do this? How do you do that? Questioning my networking, troubleshooting, and coding abilitities. It became glaringly obvious that they did not want me for customer service anymore. Well to make a long story short. I walked out of that interview with my dream job. Working with a large company in a small town(one of the largest online auctions on the net) Supporting their product and designing their layouts. Learning anything I can lay my hands on. And they offered plus or minus twice what I asked for and what I asked for was higher then what I was expecting. Plus benefits. Its monday thru Friday 8-5 and its all computer based. It couldnt get any sweeter then that. So thanks for all the well wishes on the job front. You guys brought me more luck then I could have ever imagined. I could just kiss you all. Hugs and love ya sulis

Seperate but Equal?
Heard this song today made me start thinking. Well actually the truth is I have been thinking about it for a long time. Its never really far from my mind. How do you deal with the memories, the things you can't touch but definetly feel. There are several people in my life right now that I am purposefully distancing myself from. For some reason whenever they are in my life, whenever I open up to them, drama insues. Like I have said repeatedly, I just do not want any more drama in my life. I think these people know who they are. I think they know that I love and care for them. But we are just not healthy for eachother. But I wonder how to seperate my memories. How do you let go of that closeness that love you feel for people that are nolonger good for you? Please don't read to much into these two songs I am just feeling a bit melencholy and I am fine tuning my needs and wants when it comes to those I want and need around me.
The other song was:
Is their someone or something you really miss in your life. Why do you miss it? Should you miss it? So many questions so few answers.

Help Me Understand
Trace Atkins
Once in a lifetime,
You'll open up your heart.
Maybe once in your lifetime,
You'll swear to never be apart.
You think your love's on solid ground,
Then out of the blue, it all comes tumblin' down.
Who's gonna hold me tonight,
When I'm feeling lonely?
Who's gonna show me the light?
'Cos I need to know.
With all the things we've got,
How can love just stop?
Tell me, somebody help me understand.
And my picture in your locket:
What will you do with it now?
All our friends and all our memories:
Tell me how we sort them out.
What's yours is yours, what's mine is mine:
Is that all that's left after all this time?
Who's gonna hold me tonight,
When I'm feeling lonely?
Who's gonna show me the light?
'Cos I need to know.
With all the things we've got,
How can love just stop?
Tell me, somebody help me understand.
Why I'm not a part of your plan,
And you don't need me anymore.
Help me understand,
Why I still wanna be where you are,
Even though I know in my heart,
That you don't love me anymore.
Who's gonna hold me tonight,
When I'm feeling lonely?
Who's gonna show me the light?
'Cos I need to know.
With all the things we've got,
How can love just stop?
Tell me, somebody help me understand.
The other song was:
I Miss My Friend
Daryl Worley
I miss the look of surrender in your eyes
The way your soft brown hair would fall
I miss the power of your kiss when we made love
Oh but baby most of all
I miss my friend
(Chorus)
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
Let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss the colors that you brought into my life
Your golden smile those blue-green eyes
I miss your gently voice in lonely times like now
Sayinit’ll be all right
I miss my friend
Chorus
I miss those times,
I miss those nights
I even miss our silly fights
The making up, the morning talks
And those late afternoon walks
I miss my friend
Chorus
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
I miss my friend . . .
Is their someone or something you really miss in your life. Why do you miss it? Should you miss it? So many questions so few answers.

And Now Back To Your Regularly Scheduled Program:
Life has just stepped up another notch. Getting ready to move and start a new job. Finding a sitter for the daytime. Dealing with the Arizona Unemployment office. Its all been fun fun fun. Hopefully it will all be over asap. And I can get back to my regularly scheduled life.
Digi started school and its alot more work then he was bargaining for. He has to write 2 small essays everday, and one large essay a week. He is really nervous and we have had a few little squirmishes on not wanting to do the work. But in the end it just came down to wanting to know he is doing all this work for a reason. Reminding him of his goals. Sometimes when things get tough we forget what it is we are doing all this hard work for. So I decided to make up a wish wall in our room for him. Something to remind him everyday what it is that he is working for.
Last night we had a good discussion and learned a little more about eachother and what we really wanted. It is wonderful to be able to talk to someone. To have productive discussions and planning meetings and know that that person will tell you when something is going wrong. Before it gets out of hand. I think this is the biggest thing in Digi's and my relationship that I love. I know he will say something to me if he thinks we are not going the right way. I know he will listen to me and trust me when I tell him we should do this or this. I also know he will not bury his head in the sand when problems do arise and will work just as hard as I to solve them.
When you look at your main relationship is it like that? Do you have a free flow of information and coopreration between the two of you? Do you work as a team or just two individuals? Do you know what your SO dreams, wants, needs, etc are? What have you done to help them get there? Are you a team player?
