Trying to find a moment...

Spent the day spring cleaning and am trying to avoid the strange feeling that losing an hour gives me. Give me a break, I grew up in Indiana. I'm not good with time change. I will fret about that lost hour until Fall. I mean, a whole hour!? We're supposed to just let one entire hour dissapear like that? It magically disappears at 2am, but where does it go? Really? What does it all mean?

Man, I wasn't this busy when I was a grad student. Much less stressed, though, and making up for lost fun time! We just saw TWO bald eagles while we were walking Bazbeaux along the Iowa River. It's still pretty cold out, but spring will be springing it's spring soon enough. It'd probably get here earlier if they didn't steal that damned hour from us.

Am working temporarily at the UI hospital. It's the first time I've ever worked in a hospital. It's interesting, but the parking is far too expensive. I was excited about getting paid more than I have in the past, but it seems the parking situation sucks the diniro away as soon as I can make it. Oh well, it's been nice meeting new people and stepping outside of the old comfort zone. It's definitely the largest organization I've ever worked for, but working in Nursing Services is nice b/c it's a fairly small department.

I've been hired by Pearson Education and will start grading tests for them next month. I was adamant about finding a job I could perform from home and I think this is going to be a good one. I'm feeling good about taking control of my life and making things happen the way I want them to...instead of letting the reins determine my destiny for me.

Am starving to see some good movies. Any good reviews out there?
