Man Blog = Mog

Time for the good writin'. So here we are in Rexburg, deciding what to do with our lives. Once Cristine graduates there will be no need for us to stay in Rexburg. We are torn between Idaho Falls and Pocatello. Idaho Falls, we know people, there are job opportunities that we know of and good restaurants. Pocatello I will be closer to main campus but we don't know anyone and know nothing about jobs down there. So this has been the summer of Scott getting screwed when it comes to jobs. I began the summer working for College Pro painters. It was a good job and gave me a lot of great experience. After about 60 hours of hard labor, the company decides to drop everyone to minimum wage with out giving us any type of warning. Needless to say, we were all pretty ticked. I then went looking for another job and had some trouble finding something for about a month. I then stumbled across this job for a temp agency working for UPS covering for a manager that was supposed to be out anywhere from 3 to 8 months on injury. After about 2 weeks I get a phone call about 2 hours before I have to go in telling me that they don't need me anymore because the girl is back. So now I'm back on the market. I have a few prospects and have sent my resume a few places. It's just difficult finding a job that not only pays the bills but is also willing to work about a school schedule. Any one found that job, let me know! Other then that, life is good. Cristine and I enjoy our time together. We just celebrated our 2 year anniversary. Crazy that it's been 2 years, but they have been 2 years of bliss. A couple of weeks ago we went on vacation with Cristine's family to Mission Bay, CA. We stayed in the "night club" house. I have never seen so many mirrors in my life! We had a blast. We did everything from para-sailing to deep sea fishing to being beach bums. Heck, we even had real philly cheese-steaks! Cristine doesn't want me to talk too much about it since she is going to post something about it with pics. Suffice to say, it was the most fun week of my life. Thanks Mom & Dad Cawley! We haven't made any plans for memorial day (tomorrow) yet. We may go play a little tennis, even though we stink, and play in the water park. Well, that's all for now on the Mog. Peace out.

Do you mean labor day? Why not change states entirely-I'm sure there are schools in Utah that would work just as well as in Idaho and I bet you could easily find a job. I also have a hard time believing it was a REAL philly cheese steak. I think your standards might be slipping...You know if it isn't an Amoroso roll it is not the real thing!
