let's not and say we did.

(currently listening to: my mother's carpet being cleaned)

Hello All,

So it's true, I'm not using facebook anymore. I mean the fickle chicken page is still there, but I personally won't be posting life updates or pictures. All of that can be found here. Remember when we were little and there was a whole bunch of "he said/she said" business going on and everyone got their feelings hurt over it. That's how facebook is for adults, if you ask me. There is no way in hell you can truly grasp who a person is just by looking at their facebook. So I'm in the process of deleting every post and every picture. I must say, going through all of these statuses have made me realize how far I've come. I've gone from this rebellious annoying child, to a (slightly) sophisticated woman with drive, ambition, and passion. I'm really glad I made the decision to not have a facebook. My best friend, Joe, doesn't have one. And he's still alive. Don't worry, friends, I still have all my important links at the bottom of this blog post.

On another note...
I'm on vacation right now for several reasons:

-I lost my job.
-I miss my family in west texas.
-My mom's getting married.
-I miss my family in new mexico.

So I took about three weeks off to spend time with all these people. My plan was to take my cosmetology state board the day I left for vacation, so I would have my cosmetology license when I got back from vacation and would be able to start working in a salon immediately. Well that crap didn't work. The testing center didn't have running water, so the exam was cancelled and I had to re-schedule to take it when I get back to Austin on the 18th.

However, I did apply for several jobs on Craigslist anddddd.... (drum roll, please) I am getting hired at Sports Clips as soon as I get my license! Now, I know some of you may be thinking... "sports clips, really??" But I know what I'm doing.

-There will be a LOT of foot traffic, so I'll get tons of experience right off the bat.
-The pay is hourly, not commission, so I'll have a steady paycheck no matter what...
-PLUS retail commission and my hourly goes up based on productivity.
-There will be plenty of opportunity for management so I will be able to learn how to run a salon and eventually (hopefully, maybe) start my own salon in a couple of years.
-The hours will be super flexible.
-I will get to be around men all day.

What could be better than all that???

Anywho, I will be posting pictures from the wedding next week. Don't forget to go "like" the fickle chicken on facebook, and check out all my other websites.
