Solid!!, Jigsaw and 21

How are you?

So, today was Monday. Usually Monday is one of my least favorite days, but today this was not the case. I ended up going to bed very early last night musha, so I awoke in the best possible form for a good start to the week. After doing some unimportant chore outside, I went upstairs to reacquaint myself with my ukulele, a cup of coffee and the classifieds. I read through the usual ads for lawn mowers and ballet lessons, and eventually I found a tiny square of writing no bigger than a stamp. It was an add for a job with Marlborough Greenhouses INC. Having nothing better to do, I visited their main office to ask about the job in question. When I arrived at the office, I was greeted by a small middle aged woman who offered me an application. The application was short.. Actually it was not really an application and more just a piece of paper asking me what my name was. After I had done this, I was greeted by Mr. LaCasse who is the owner. I had a short interview in which he asked me about my previous job experience, where I went to school and if I thought I could handle a 40 hour work week. It turned out that my job would be mowing lawns all day. As I spend a lot of time in the summer doing this for free, why not get payed for it? I thought the interview went quite well, and I will call them the day after tomorrow to see if I have the job or not.

When I got home, I spent a few care free hours with my ukulele. I don't know if I have ever mentioned this before, but I love ukuleles. There is something about the tiny four stringed lute that evokes a simpler life, a life free from worry about the extra 2 cumbersome strings the guitar offers. If you do not own a ukulele, buy one as soon as possible and I will buy it from you for double what you payed if in a year you regret it's presence in your house, car or office. They are possibly the cheapest and best instruments ever. Maybe I should start a ukulele support group, where people like me can get together, play ukuleles and talk about how awesome ukuleles are.

Well, I hope I get a job soon. A summer of hard work will be a good idea.
