Fun Monday - I Need a Hero


Kitten is hosting this week's Fun Monday, and her request? Tell me about the Super Hero in your life. Not from TV, but anyone that has been or is in your life that you have really looked up to or has made a impact on your life. It can one or many. You can share pictures if you like. Just have fun with it.

So, I tried, really, I tried to come up with someone. The thing is...I don't really have a "Hero". I have several folks I look up to, and admire, my mom, my dad, certain friends and people I have met on the road of life. But I don't really qualify any of them as my "hero". I find the hero thing a bit out of my realm of comprehension, to be honest. It's funny because Candid Mama and I were talking about it yesterday, and she said she wasn't going to participate in FM this week because she didn't really "get" the hero thing. Something we've never discussed, but we both agree on, I guess. Funny how that is.

So, I don't have a hero for you today. Sorry to disappoint.

But instead of ignoring all the FM'ers, since I did sign up, I thought I'd entertain you all with my antics this morning. What was I doing at 9:45 a.m.? Sitting at my computer, hitting the refresh key repeatedly, waiting for New Kids On The Block tickets to go on sale at 10AM. Did I get them?

Yes SIREE!! Myself, M&M, PM, and BFF will be going to see NKOTB in September, and will be acting like complete 13 year olds. I can't wait!

OH, also, as I was typing this very post, I received a call from the place I interviewed on Friday. They want me back for a second interview (this time to met with the CFO and again with the CEO) on Wednesday morning. They also wanted my SSN so they can run a background check. That's promissing, right?
One more thing: I did a movie review for Invincible over at Cafe Karina, (no spoilers in my reviews ever) won't you stop on by for a cup'a?

Happy Monday Everyone! OH, and Happy Cinco De Mayo (which by the way, I learned two years ago while in Mexico, Mexicans DO NOT celebrate). There's some useless trivia for you...happy to oblige.

hey that's awesome. i just did an interview, testing and etc with a temp agency and they seemed thrilled with me, so i'm happy. i wasn't nervous a bit and in fact prepared so little that i'm ashamed of it. usually i'm over prepared, but it was simple and sounds like they may throw me under the bus, i mean, have a job for me very soon.

i didn't exactly play by the rules today either, since it's my son's birthday and i thought it more appropriate to give him the floor.

You sound like a hero in my book! Keeping you head up high in all you have been through. So, in my book you did a very well job!
Here's praying for that job!
I wish I could go and see BSB with ya, but I do hope you have a great time! I'll be looking for you when it airs!

I was just watching dancing with the stars and Cheryl said her partner (Christian) was her hero.

He pulled a tendon or ligament last week so he is dancing one armed -- and he still was able to do a lift!!
