whoops, forgot to update

So I forgot to update on Friday after my interview. I think things went pretty well for a second interview. I interviewed with the store operations manager and then with the current store manager (he's leaving soon, so-as he told me-he's not going to make the final decision, he'll leave it up to those who would be stuck with the person they hire). We shared some laughs, and the usual interview type discussions. They both seemed to be on the same page as I am about how you treat your co-workers, confidentiality, organization, and desire to learn. I felt like the conversations were just that, conversations. Not the "I ask questions-you answer-I nod" kind of situation. Any way, hopefully I'll hear something soon. Fingers crossed!

This was my weekend of exile again. It was so weird to go and hang out at the mob family's place without all of them there! Actually, it was kind of boring. Even though I hate the situation that forces me to leave my "home" every other weekend, I really do look forward to seeing my favorite second family. Their house was so damned quiet without the boys though! I tried to make the best of it by grabbing some soda and some munchies and splurging on a Criss Angel DVD collection. Saturday evening I had a "drool fest" while watching the dvds. I've already told Mafia Wife that we're going to have to plan a trip to Vegas so that I can meet my future husband (aka Criss Angel, if you weren't following...). If he balks at the whole "marriage" thing, I'd settle for him being my baby's daddy. Or at least trying for that! Yep, I'm a perv. Yep, it's a high school type obsession. I'm 36 years old and have a crush! Oy vey, who'da thunk it?

So the Mafia bunch arrived home Sunday morning very early (I was pretty groggy, but it must have been around 5 am or 6 am). The Boss Man was whipped and crashed pretty hard for a few hours, though not nearly enough. MW stayed up for a while with the boys, since they got to sleep for a while on the drive. I think she did that mainly so they'd stay quiet while I slept. The dork really should have just woke me up so she could get some sleep. But you know her, gotta make sure everyone else is okay first. After I got up, she managed to get a little bit of a nap in, mainly because the boys fell asleep watching tv. So I manned the phones and watched Sponge Bob with the kids. I've never been a big fan of chatting on the phone, but this weekend I had a really nice surprise when Mar called to check on the gang and I was lucky enough to answer the phone. Needless to say, I had a really enjoyable conversation with her, though I was bugging her to come up to Michigan to visit. It was nice to put a voice to the stories that MW has been telling me, and to the pictures that I got to see from the vacation. I think she thinks that we're all kidding when we tell her that she's welcome to come visit at any time. Which is just silly, because I know the Mafia clan wouldn't invite without being serious about it. She just has to remember that the couch is mine to sleep on! Any way, I just hope that I do get to meet her sometime soon.

I've been rambling for a while now, and my coffee cup is empty. That's not good. On that note, I'm out of here so that I can get a refill!
