Argh argh argh, a pirate says ARGH!
Craig is still looking for a job. It’s scarier than we thought, but we’re waiting to hear back from a company he interviewed with three times. He and one other person are the likely candidates. The downside is that he will work evenings and weekends. The *other* downside is that my children are about to drive me totally off a mental cliff, AND school will be out in exactly one month. Seriously, I’m joining the witless protection program.
So, if you know anyone in the greater Kansas City metro area who needs an IT genius, visit www.craigclemons.com. He’s also available to set up small business and home networks, plus he can create blog templates, web design and application development, and so on and so forth. Please, hire my husband!
In other news, we went to a volunteer appreciation dinner at my son’s school. Also, my former school and parish. Let me mention this: it is very bizarre to walk in and find that other honorees brought their own beer and wine. HA! Catholics! But there was a point where we were asked to introduce ourselves to people we didn’t know…and Brandon, bless him, attempted to meet EVERY PERSON HE DID NOT KNOW. And tell them his birthday, his age, his entire life story. I was so thrilled to see how comfortable he was there, and how well he conversed with everyone. He’s taken to being shy around new people, but he feels so safe at his school that nobody is a stranger! Most people I remembered from my time served, and many of them remembered me! My family got to meet my first grade teacher! Our old neighborhood pharmacist! And much, much more! And the food was good, catered by a family that lives up the street from my parents. I remember when I used to help him make Thanksgiving dinners for shut-ins before he started his catering business. It’s a good place, his school.
I will leave it at that – but I will also mention that there’s at least one of you I’ve been trying to track down on Facebook – I know you’re there! (I spend a little too much time there, because HAY LOOK AT THE APPS!). Find me here: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=502585534&ref=profile.
Also, do you Twitter? I’m really trying to increase my network for Craig’s sake. I use darkerviolet (pesonal), dvdesigns (for Darker Violet Designs), kcpassion (for when I get back into adult novelties), and kcfreecycle (yeah, kcfreecycle).
Going to catch up now!
