Arizona

Ask not what I can do for Scottsdale, but what Scottsdale has done for me..........

Scottsdale! I've heard the people here are snotty and it has the nickname Snobbsdale, but everyone has been really nice so far and honestly I haven't seen that many pretty people so it can't be ALL that :)

As of tomorrow I will have been here 1 month, feels like 3, but its one. Lets discuss my progress...
I moved. That's a good step. Of course all my stuff is still in storage so its not official until June 23rd.
I got a great little apartment that I love, although I wish I had a house :), but again, it will do.
I went out with one blind date, TOM, well, and by the picture below we can all see why the buck stopped there! Hello. Poor Chuck Minor. So Tom is a big bonus, AZ sure treated me right with that present. Will have one more blind date tomorrow, just to remind myself how lucky I was the first time around! :)
What else...
Got a job at this amazing animal hospital, which I love! Still can't pay bills cuz its part time but doing what you love is almost worth being poor.
Got pinkeye. That's a fun one... Ever had pink eye? Its like a giant ball of puss has somehow lodged behind your actual eyeball and it drains all day and night. It is the equivalent of a 2 year old snotty nose that runs all day--- DISGUSTING!
And, surprise, surprise, the day after the pink eye, I lost my voice. Related? Did I lose it from all my whining about the pinkeye? Hmmm...
The next day, I start hacking like an 80 yr old smoker who's pink eye leaked down into her lungs. Disgusting. But, the eye stopped oozing and I've almost got a voice back to start singin my praises to AZ again! It started out so well...... Hopefully this is just the downhill ride, not the beginning of the end, or a brain tumor.
Good thing Tom is in NY-- a one eyed, puss hacking lung cancer patient can't keep a man like that for long. :)

I will try and post pictures soon. Love you all!

Glad to hear for the most part everything there is going awsome. Sorry about the pink eye and the sickness but hopefully it is gone now. Miss you

Hey- we were sick the same week but your was way worse. I also could have sworn I already left you a commment but maybe it got screened and deleted from you, I've been known to get a little loosed lipped on the blogs.

I coughed out loud when I read your comparison to the the 80 year old man. Funny girl, Lis. Time to pack up out of AZ and move out here to be a sit com writer.
