jobs....and colorado

so i just seem to have to worst luck finding a job. the whole dental office thing didn't work out. but, i think i've got a new job lined up that will work out super. a guy adam knows from work (eric) was recently transferred here. so he had already asked adam if i'd be interested in babysitting their 1 year old occassionally so he and his wife could go out. so we said, that'd be great. and then the other day, eric asked adam if i'd be interested in a regular babysitting job, because his wife got offered a job. so it would be like 20-30 hours a week, probably 3 days a week. his wife will be working from their home office, so she'll still be around, so i'd just have to watch after the boy all day while she works. and i guess she wants to pay me comparatively to what i'd make subbing, since they'd be taking me away from that 3 days a week, sothat's awesome! so i'd still be available the other 2 days to sub if i'm called or whatever. so i'm excited for this. it's not a total fur sure yet. we're going over there saturday night to meet them and talk about everything. so hopefully that works out, cuz it would be absolutely perfect.
so i finally figured out how to access the subbing system online, but unfortunately there are no jobs listed that are available, so that sucks. i guess i'll have to check back frequently, and have to just take the jobs when they call at 5:45 a.m. looking for a sub (which i don't think i'm going to like because it's most likely a teacher dcalling in sick for the day and so they wouldn't have left out supplies and lesson plans for me - ahhh!) they've called a few timnes so far, but i havn'et taken any jobs, because we were out of town for a long weekend, and i had a lot to get ready before that, and errands to run when we got back. so who knows. i'm also super nervous about it. eeks.
colorado was a lot of fun. i hung out with jenean about half the time we were there. it was great to get to see her. we flew in thurs night and i got dropped off at jenean's place. spent the night with her, then fri we drove down to colorado springs, had lunch, and went to garden of the gods. then went to the hotel and out to eat with adam's family. then she had to leave, so that sucked. saturday morning was the wedding. it was a full mass, but seemed very slow and long. and the priest was not a good speaker. then the reception was about a 15 minute driveaway (to the foot of pike's peak) at a little hotel. the food was ok. (not what you'd expect for total costs of the wedding being about $65/person). the dj was horrible. played the music way too loud for such a small room and crappy songs. an dhe'd just cut songs off in the middle and be like, that's enough of that song. and he had never played the chicken dance. and it was a crappy chicken dance. like a techno remix. awful. half the people there didn't even know how to do the chicken dance. i was like, come on! that night, we went to his aunt and uncle's house in colorado springs for a little while to visit with people. then headed back to the hotel to pack up and get to bed. 4 hours later, we had to get up to drive back to the denver airport. so that sucked. we were super early and easily could have slept another hour, but oh well. from denver, we flew to minneapolis, so my mom and carly came down and adam and went to the mall of america with them. we were going to go to a restaurant there for breakfast, but it is no longer there, so we just went to cinnabon since it was the only thing open. (which was fine by me, i wasn't super hungry anyways). heather came and met us at cinnabon, so that was cool to see her too. so i got to spend a couple hours with them, then we had to get back to the airport to fly back to indianapolis. when we finally got back, adam's parents wanted to take us out to some ribs restaurant, so we went out again. (personally i was not really hungry and was tired of eating out all weekend, plus we had a 2+ hour drive back to our house, so i really just wanted to get going) but we went out, and it was ok food. not the best ribs i've ever had. oh well though. finally got home a little after 8 and pretty much went straight to bed. it was a fast, but good weekend.
i should really write more often in here, so that when i do actually write, it isn't so long. but whatever i guess.
