Okay, so most of you know now that I have a job.

So, let me tell you about the rest of that weird day. After going to Winder Friday and being offered the job, we went to Amy Echol's place to visit a bit. I spent the afternoon there hanging curtains and being all Vern-from-Trading-Spaces. 'Cause I have no masculinity.

That night, Mary stayed with Amy and did girlie stuff while I went out with Chris and some of the Bulldog crew downtown. Did some drinking and dancing.

What? Did you catch that? Yep, I went dancing. And you know what? I sucked. But, that's okay, because as I was out there, I could point out at least 5 other people in my vicinity that were worse.

I also realized that going out dancing without your wife when you are married kind of sucks. A whole bunch of single folks in a room grinding . . . and me somewhere off to the side doing the Cabbage Patch.

Maybe next time, I will try the Tootsie Roll.
