new job, accupuncture, and bbq

So yesterday at 1pm Jeff had an interview at the Moscow Coop for a deli position. At 5:30pm he got a call asking him if he could start today!!! That's some quick turnaround. He was especially shocked because they told him he wouldn't hear for a week. They must've liked him. He went in for a one hour traning session today, and for the next week he'll be shadowing people to learn how it all works there. He'll be working 28 hours/week until the end of October, then it can change up. Unfortunately until the end of October he'll be working Saturdays. But...that's ok. And he can get off the Saturday Dad and Kelly are in town. In any case, it all happened so fast that he's feeling a bit overwhelmed but mostly happy. AND, on Monday of next week he has an interview for the part time WSU job. It's possible, then, if he gets it that he could suddenly be working 48 hours/week. Yucky. He's thinking if he gets the WSU job (which is a big "if" since the job market on campus is so weird) he'll take it from there--possibly cutting back at the coop. But for now, job, working with food, good good.

I went to a chinese medicine doctor today and got accupuncture. It was wacky. I never had accupuncture under Marcie, so while a lot of the treatment was normal, the needles weren't. But it didn't hurt at all and was really relaxing. She also seemed to have a lot of insight into my health...things she just kind of figured out based on my pulses. Chinese medicine is crazy, and fascinating. Anyhow, I liked her a lot and am happy to have found her.

I went to get accupuncture in Moscow while Jeff did his coop traning part 1, then we hooked up and ended up getting dinner at Patty's Kitchen, which is a Mexican place in Moscow. On Wednesdays they have a bbq in the yard, so we decided to try it. Amazing ribs and beef tips. Yummmmm.

No longer full of needles, but full of meat, and watching America's Next Top Model, and soon to watch Project Runway. Yeah me.

Oh yeah, and that job thing is going ok too :) I really love my rhetoric students, they're awesome. Ok, off to tv land.
