out of town

We currently have plans to get out of town for a few days and take advantage of my "time off" by driving up to Atlanta to stay with Marissa's parents for a few days. It occured to me earlier this week that with this built in time off, we should take advantage of it and if I didn't have anything planned, we should drive up to her folks place and spend a long weekend there. I think it will be good to get out of our apartment and take a break from the job searching routine. Well, I'll still be searching for jobs but at least there we can sort of mellow out. It'll be fun and I know Marissa can't wait to see her folks and her puppies so just to see her ecstatic about the trip is worth it to me.

The original plan was to leave tonight after Marissa was done with work and drive 2 or 3 hours and sleep at a hotel for the night but we basically decided spending $50 on a hotel isn't the smartest use of our limited financial resources so we're just going to wake up early tomorrow morning and gun it and arrive hopefully around lunch time.

As I was writing this blog entry for today, I was about to report no new job hunting news but then I received a phone call as I was typing and now I have what I think is a promising job interview for this afternoon. Wish me luck!
