Back on Track

I didn't get that part-time zoo job and given that I was upset about it for approximately 90 seconds seems to be pretty good indication of how badly I wanted the job. I honestly think I wanted to "win" the position more then I actually wanted to do the job itself. Oh, and the paycheck, I wanted that part of it too. Even though it was a measly amount, it was a measly amount more then my current paycheck. I did get my zoo volunteer assignment though and starting next week I will be in charge of the petting zoo. Ok, maybe "in charge" is a bit of a stretch - more likely I'll be trying to keep the docile animals from biting small children, explaining to hypervigilant parents that no, your kids cannot get swine flu from the zoo's one pig, and scooping poop. Luckily my dogs have already given me plenty of training in the poop scooping arena so I will undoubtably be in charge of that after just a few short volunteer sessions.

In the meantime, it's getting to be about that time of year to start thinking about holiday product photos because nothing reminds one more of the holidays then tulips blooming. I have my annual photo shoot (for products, not for me) next week so I have to spend some time this week getting everything compiled and organized.
