Spokane: It's Not Quite Alaska

It's been a balmy 40 some degrees outside all week, and stays light well into the evening now. Hallelujah!

News from the house:

Everyone has been in and out of the house lately. Going home, going for job interviews, going to Seattle. I've been holding down the fort pretty steadily. Must say I'm ready for a break, however.
John got an unexpected vacation when he badly sprained his ankle. Poor guy.

News from work:

We are planning our Family Reading Night for Thursday. Keep your fingers crossed people actually come, I'm a little worried about the attendance. It'd be a good opportunity, if people take advantage of it!

News from life:

I applied for a second year of JVC, and was accepted. However, I'm waiting to see if they open a house in Missoula or not. If so, I am considering doing a second year. Maybe I'm crazy, but it's true. Missoula is a neat town in Montana. It's in the mountains and is a sort of hippie enclave. Could be interesting.

Other than that, life is life. Fairly monotonous right now. Definitely ready for a vacation of any sort.

Do something to change the world:
Buy someone coffee. The other day, I went to Starbucks because I (thought) I had a gift card there. Turns out, left it at home. I was pretty disappointed seeing as how I had no money, but the lady behind me bought my drink and croissant. Pretty much made my day. Her response "Oh, I have a daughter in college, I know how it is." (My thought: I have even less money than a college student...so thank you twice as much!)
