A lot of stuff has been happening lately. First off, my birthday was last Saturday, the 3rd. I had what I suppose is my first "adult" birthday party. I have not had a birthday party in years because I always seem to work on my birthday, and it just hasn't seemed like that big of a deal, so I never planned a party. But this year Jeremy and I had dinner with my parents, his parents, and two couples who are friends of Jeremy's mom (one of them also was celebrating her birthday). Of course, Jeremy and I were the two youngest. I really enjoy hanging out with adults, especially when they don't talk down to me and they tell stories of their childhood. I love hearing that kind of stuff. We went to this middle eastern restaurant near my apartment that we just love. If any of you are ever in Irving, look up Dunes. But these guys who own this restaurant love Shari (the J-man's mom). They always give us free stuff like tea and baklava. They knew we were coming for a birthday party, and they went and bought a cake for us! And they brought us out plates of watermelon after the cake "to clean our palates." This was the first meeting of our parents, and they seemed to get along swimmingly. And it's been so long since I've had a gift bought for me that was not of my asking. I got some candles and bath stuff, and Jeremy bought me this beautiful sterling silver openwork band with 1cm sq turquoise set in it. And he picked it out all by himself. He got the wrong size, but at least now he knows what my real ring size is...I'm calling this a test ring. Anyways, I had a great time, and we have already planned more times that we and our parents are going to hang out.
Second, I have had a change in my plans for my career change. My mom offered again to train me to do her job, as she has trained many of her now co-workers. All times prior when she has offered, I had declined. It just did not sound fun, and I liked where I was. I guess I am just really wanting a change, because without having to think about it, I accepted her offer. I have had two lessons so far, and my attitude has changed completely. It is fun, like she has said all along, and it is easy too. I have been so much happier the last couple of weeks because I can see the way out of my EMS career. Hopefully, I can manage to get a job doing this by the end of this year. Yay!
