What is ...

... purple, red, and bumpy? My right arm. One week and the poison ivy/oak/whatever is still here. Actually, it isn't as bad as it has been. Not as many bumps.

Job hunt is getting more difficult. Not as many options to send resume out in order to meet the minimum requirements for my extended benefits.

There are funny parts to this job search. I talked with a recruiter this morning. Good job in the cement industry. After three sentences I said, "I have already interviewed for that job." Apparently, Essroc still can't find anyone to take the job in West Virginia. Job would be fine, location is beautiful, plant manager is a jerk!

MJ is in the golden casket. News is back with all the doom and gloom of politics, high-profile murders, and the economy.

House is almost clean. Don is here. Wildlife Habitat sign will go up tomorrow. Mowing, blueberries are in, and Friday we head to Peoria for a Chiefs' game.
