Boyf and I went home to SLC for christmas, where my whole family fell in love with him, and I got to hold Kai, Jesse and Julia's new beebee.

Micki, Joe, Jess and Julia keep having kids to remind me that, had I stayed in Utah, I'd be married and preggers. I'd also have unlimited access to the best tomatoes on the planet. (Tomatoes in Chicago taste like library paste and cheap lies.) I'm very seriously considering bringing a cooler to fill with those sweet red gems next time I visit.

Over xmas, i talked with my parents and opted to take CNA training. The job hunt was going well, interview-wise, but most days I stayed at home and wished that boyf was really, really rich and ready for marriage and also insisted on a big allowance for his trophy wife. Of course, being a stay-at-home girlfriend is less exciting when there's nothing to do but watch daytime tv and complain to oneself.

Boyf pointed out that if i took a CNA class, I was sure to find a job JUST as soon as I paid for the entire program. Murphy's rule.

I got a job about two weeks after the class was over. Admin, at a non-profit home care company. So he was MOSTLY right, the jerk.
