A New Post from the Jobless Blogger

Yes, it's true, I forgot about blogging. I've been so busy lately and I feel like I'm chasing my tail. I was terminated on Friday, July 1st. Fired. Let go. The exact words were "Well, we were going to give you a raise, but after this e-mail... we've decided we're going to let you collect unemployment."

And that was it.

So I did what any normal person would do, and I went to the beach. Hey, it was already planned.

Hubby and I had an amazing time, and got to see some fireworks from a pretty cool spot right in the bay. Oh, how I adore being on/in the water. I was just saying to a new friend of mine today, the only thing I really enjoy about this time of year is the water (and fireworks, but I'll take fireworks any day). Lakes, pools, beaches, streams, rivers... you name it. Otherwise, give me snow and 30 degree weather.

Neither of us have been to the gym in a while and I can feel that I'm putting some of the weight I lost back on. We both need to get back there. I didn't feel like a total cow in my bathing suit this year though, so that was an accomplishment.

What else is going on.... Well, I got called that I'm actually singing the National Anthem for the Staten Island Yankees this year again, and apparently I'm going to audition for "The Voice" in a couple weeks. Sounds like a plan, I say. I'm waiting for a call back for a third interview for a new job, so in the meantime, I suppose I can let the talented side of me out to play for a bit. Heck, I even started writing another song while we were at the beach on the boat in the bay. The sky looked like cotton candy, and as many pictures as I took, not one could truly capture what I saw. It was amazing.

I can't think of much else to say at the moment, mostly because I'm avoiding giving my piece of social commentary on the Casey Anthony trial and everything else going on in the world. Maybe I'll get to that tomorrow.

And now, inspired by a different Casey: A Picture!

That's all for now...
