Ok, ok, so I know I (we) are the world's worst blogger. Most of you have probably stopped checking the blog, I don't blame you. However, my new goal is to update this blog at least once a week on Tuesdays with Tidbits :) _______________________________________________
Joe played in his final match as a Pacific Tiger on Saturday. Joe said he is proud of his team, the way they never got down, never took out their frustrations on each other, and as only he could say it best. . . "at least we were consistent." hahaha I love his optimism :)

Given that graduation is looming on the horizon in this economy my typical day looks something like this:
wake up . . .go to work. . . pretend to work while applying for a job. . . work on resume while multitasking developing baseball headshots. . . browse jobs while pretending to work. . . go to library to work on thesis. . .look for jobs while working on thesis. . . find job. . .get instantly excited. . .apply for job. . .remind myself not to get too excited. . . check email to see if anyone has noticed my stellar resume and wanted to email me back. . .nothing.. . continue to work on thesis. . .get a call from Joe. . keeping his horizons broad and options open applied for museum guard position in san francisco (? gotta love him). . .get frustrated with thesis. . .decide it's time to go home. . .make a delicious dinner while day dreaming of being a housewife someday. . .bake cookies to cheer us up. . .browse jobs. . . possibly apply. . .go to bed. :) :) :) hahah. Dont you love it?

Today it was 98 degrees in Stockton! Where did the spring 70 degree weather go?

I will feel successful if we can get out of Stockton upon graduation. In memory of our time here we have begun to compile a list of our experiences to remember our time in one of our nations "all-american" cities
You know you live in stockton when. . .
1) there is a constant 50+ person line waiting to apply for a position at the 'new' Olive Garden
2) the Olive Garden is the nicest restaraunt in town
3) Taco Tuesday (anywhere) is completely packed
4) you drive by houses with nicer cars than the house
5) women walk their babies for a 'nice stroll' down Pacific Avenue (the busiest street in town)
5) when help someone pay for their groceries and they ask you to buy them a soda (too) as your loading groceries in your car
6) when you don't feel comfortable in the Target parking lot
7) Costco is so packed on any day that you have to wait in line for a shipping cart
9) The Cost sample people look exhausted trying to keep up with the demand
(to be continued)
