OH! First, I changed the settings so that ANYONE can comment now. You don't need to be a member of this website. yay! (I'm expecting comments now...)
Not much has been going on, Johnny has been working and going to school full time, so he is pretty much a ghost around here. They finally got out of the classroom and into the shop to work on real cars, so he says it's easier to stay awake now (you'd be falling asleep after 8 hours of lecture, too! Especially from 4:30pm-2am!).
I've interviewed for several jobs and to my immense disappointment have not gotten one yet. Apparently possible employers "admire my education and enthusiasm but have hired someone with more experience". That's what most of my lovely rejection letters say. This was an especially good week, I got 3! oh wait, no I got 4! It's almost comical by this point. But I'm still hopeful. I had an interview today and I have another Monday. I submitted a few more applications so we'll see if anything turns up...
In other news, I have been working on my graduate school application. You all better go knock on wood for me RIGHT NOW. I'm really hoping to get into the University of Washington Museology Master's degree program...now cross your fingers now that you've knocked on wood! I want my application to stand out and really show why I want to be there, so it has been quite stressful. I am also signed up to take the GREs in mid-November...I'm not really looking forward to that.
OH and the other big news is that Johnny and I are going to be famous! Our photographers submitted some of our wedding photos to Seattle Bride Magazine, and one of our photos was chosen to be part of their "Commitments" section, with includes a photo and a short story about us and our wedding. It will be in the Spring/Summer 2008 issue (I'm not exactly sure when that comes out...) and it will be one of these two pictures:
(the magazine *really* wants to use this one)
or
so keep an eye out early next year!
Also, we had a really good dinner the other night, here is the recipe:
"Flavorful Chicken" (real original...but it really is flavorful!)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
In a shallow bowl, combine butter and soy sauce; dip chicken on both sides. Place in shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic salt and paprika. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170. Yield: 2 servings
It is *really* good! And I thought of you when I bought that paprika, Hannah. :)
until next time...(with me hopefully bearing better news about a job...)

So it looks like there are 6 bites of chicken....and 6 string beans? Is it meant to be like that? No wonder you're so skinny. I could eat like 3 times that in one sitting :) It does look good though. And exciting about the magazine! Do you get money for it? You should....
yay for new updates! I've been getting worried!!!
Plus, I second Melissa's comments! You are never going to survive a Wyoming winter if you don't insulate.
