archive: 20 September 2008: I got the job!

News today!
I got the job at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City. I got the call this afternoon when I was on the other line, so he had to leave a voicemail first. I listened to it and immediately called him back. So Monday I will call him and figure out a starting date, which I am thinking should be the 6th or the 13th of October. I'll need to move out there the week before, get settled into a place, and then get started working! Amazing concept. :)

I am so excited and sad at the same time. I want adventure and change and I need work, but I have not wanted to leave Kentucky, much less Berea. But I will keep this thought that I will come back to stay one day, and I will.

Now, the planning and figuring out how to move out there. I think I will do that tomorrow and Sunday. I want to go back to the house, get the right threads for the journal book cover, and go to the bell hooks and Bill Turner reading tonight. Also go to MudPi's band practice, maybe. I've got to go to Pat's for Will's 1st birthday tomorrow afternoon, and hopefully there's something going on Saturday night with the music folks.

Wow, what a day. What a roller-coaster day.
