8. Yaaaaa!
Sounds like just what the doctor ordered for both of you right now. So glad the two of you will have some time to help each other out and be of support.

Have you washed and pressed your fine red union suit for the occasion? :rofl:

Have a really great time and fingers crossed for a productive job search! :hi:

Hugs to both of you. :hug: :hug:

41. Hey!
The pay in Columbus stinks and I've not gotten a single interview in 3 weeks. All the headhunters in Milwaukee and Madison have called me multiple times. I've tried for nearly 7 years to make a life in Columbus and it just isn't happening. :(

30. I'm here. Finally.
Do NOT trust Garmin maps of Milwaukee. I almost made it far enough north to see Rev Cheesehead. :eyes:


Retro's place is like, retro...

42. Oh, that's OK.
I just turned the heat back on. It's supposed to be 70 by Thursday, and hopefully it'll stay that way, and we cant turn it off for good.

36. Definitely
depending on how things go, I'll be home Monday late or Tuesday.

Sorry I bailed on you for coffee. I was going stir crazy looking at the four walls and thought if I go *see* the headhunters in person, they'll take me seriously.

Tell ZI hi for me!

40. No problem.
Is someone looking after the kitties? You can call me if you need me to check on them or anything since I'm just down the road.

Best of luck to you, sweetie. You deserve some. :hug::loveya:

ZI says, "Hi!" :)
