30

It seems like I have been waiting a long time to be 30. I always thought people would take me more seriously - on the workfront at least. Most people dread it from what I hear, I felt ready to embrace it. Well, I received some dissapointing news at work the Monday of my birthday week - that I should start looking for a new job. I have notice, I have time and I have a bit of relief. But nonetheless, I was sad. I have put my heart and soul into this job. We postponed my birthday plans (for two reasons - a blog by Josh will follow) and had a quiet dinner to celebrate my mom's birthday and mine with my family. It was really nice. Thank you to all of my friends and family for being so supportive over the last few weeks. We did muster up the energy to head out in Westlake to P6 for ONE drink which led to 6 or 7 and we didn't make it back until after 1:00 - so much for relaxing. Each time I go home, I am so suprised by how much fun the quiet little town of Thousand Oaks has turned into!
