A quick summer look

Here are just a few of the highlights from the first half of this year.

Jan 3rd: First working day of the year - got fired due to personality conflicts. Not the best way to start the year but hey it was way better than working there. Sexist pigs!

From that point I started to enjoy what I called my mini-vacation. Was thinking that I would look/find a job around March and maybe get hired in April. I guess that meant I should have REALLY looked in March?

Mid-April: flew to Cocoa/Cocoa Beach FL - uncle was having medical issues. Turns out it was a highly allergic reaction to something. Only he will know what it might have been. It was only happening about 2 to 4 weeks before I got there. He was in the hospital the day I landed. Was in for another two days then I got to be nurse for a week and half. Not a bad vacation from the mini-vacation.

Hit the beach one day, got burned - big surprise, drove about 10 min to NASA-Kennedy Center. Did the big behind the scenes tour. Totally recommend that for anyone that digs space/space flight and the space station. Worth it to get about 5 miles from the shuttle launch pads and see peeps making parts for the space station.

Arrived home May 1st. Now I was seriously mostly looking for a job. Wanted one but didn't at the same time. Liked being home and doing my own thing and catching up on my reading.

Speaking of reading.... Books I've read to this point:
1st book while in FL - can't beat something that is popular and is only 5 bucks, Lost book 1, Lost book 2, Lost book 3
-granted the first 3 lost books don't add to the IQ points but they're a fun quick read.
Lost book 4
-recommend this book for those that like a little mystery.
Since Dan Brown wrote Da Vinci Code I had to read the book that proceed it. It started out slow but became interesting.
Another Lost type book. It was a book that was supposed to give incite into the "plot" of Lost but I don't see how it ties into the book at all.

Da Vinci code mentioned another book so I started to read that one too. It too starts out slow and very confusing. I read the preface which added to my confusion. Now it's a very very interesting book. It points out a lot of facts and connections.

There was also a couple of funerals in there and another trip to FL but I've already mentioned them.

Here's to having more fun in these next 6 months.
