In case you haven’t heard, my car is fixed and looks better then when I
got it (at least the front end). While it was in the shop for 2.5 days, I
got the hook up with Enterprise (“We’ll pick you up.” – and they did). It
was pretty nice, although I got a no feature tiny little red cobalt to
cruise around in. Liberty Mutual actually covered most of the cost of the
rental, which was pretty cool. Someone at the MCC has started a
racquetball court thing that happens every Wednesday and Thursday night. I
was the only other person to show up last Wednesday, but Thursday there
was quite a few people. I had played a couple games against the guy who
got me started with the ladder and learned a couple things. Then we went
to the challenge court and had a lot of fun playing cutthroat (three
people on the court). I was so tired and had so much fun, I was glad I
wasn’t working the Friday after so I could recuperate. My first match is
tonight and my next one will probably be tomorrow, I’m pretty excited (and
looking forward to the challenge court this week)!

In other news, I’m still working at Dow, but hopefully not for long!
I’ve had interviews with seven different people over a three day period,
talk about stressful! I thought everything was going really well,
especially when I heard back after my third day of interview that Dice
Corp was really interested in me. They actually wanted me to start within
a week! Well, I needed to give atleast a two week notice to Kelly, so that
wasn’t going to fly. I’ve been going back and force with my contact and
still haven’t heard the final word yet. Today should be the day, so keep
your fingers crossed, I’d be super execited to work there!

This weekend Susan and I went to our first Bed and Breakfast. I had
wanted to do something the weekend following Valentine’s Day as a present
for Susan (and me), but Susan had an orchestra concert that weekend, and
last weekend she was on call. Originally I was thinking of going to an
indoor water park, but that was a little pricey, so Google led me to the
Heritage Manor Inn in Fennville (near South Haven, on the west coast of
Michigan). It was a lot of fun, and a great way to relax. Each room had
it’s own theme and a hot tub (that sure felt great on my sore racquetball
muscles!) The food was excellent and the people running it were really
friendly. It was so nice, we’re thinking about going back in the summer,
so we can go to the beach when it’s not frozen (yeah, that was pretty neat
to see the frozen lake though. =P)
