And now for some random cuteness.

First up, some cute Octopus stuff from Joann’s. All of these items were $1.00 each. The massager and pencil sharpener came in a couple of other colors (yellow, blue, and purple, I think). The stickers are puffy stickers. These things made me think of Bubs.

Callie, a stray cat that’s been at my parents for several months (guess it’s not so “stray” anymore!) had a kitten. Only one. How weird. Anyway, it’s a few weeks old now. Here’s a picture of her.

And last but not least, I drew this fantabulous Rainbow/Cloud picture on Pink Flamingo’s Groupboard. Pink Flamingo is a really cute site with some neat stuff I just ran across the other day. If you like cute stuff, check it out.

So, Colin had his big, half-day interview yesterday for the library coordinator position at MCC. After he got home around 3ish, we decided to head on up to Evansville to see Pirates 3 and eat at Boston Pizza. We stopped at the Burger King here in town first, because he hadn’t eaten anything since breakfast and since we weren’t going to eat until after the movie (the long movie). We were getting close to being finished when his phone rang…

… He got the job! Whooo-hoo! It was very exciting! I know how super-smart he is, and how professional and I guess they realized too! I’m so proud! I think he’ll be really good at it, and everyone is very excited for him. It was good because he got to enjoy the rest of the day without having to worry about how his interview went.

We saw Pirates (got there just in time to see it), and it was, of course, very long. Longer than it really needed to be I think. It was good though. I was confused during some parts of it, but that’s to be expected I think. I’m sometimes not good at following action-type movies with lots of swordfighting. We went to Boston Pizza afterwards and had…pizza!

Today was silly because we got all ready to go swimming and walked down the million steps to get to the pool, and there was a chain and lock on the pool gate. Apparently the pool pump is broken, so they closed the pool until they get the part they need (which is supposed to be tomorrow). We went to eat supper at my parents’ though, so we swam there (and played Katee’s Wii!).
