Welcome home to Tennessee!

Well my loyal commentors and readers alike, I am officially moved into my new apartment; which I might add is so cute! Mmm, actually its only half as cute as is will be when I have furniture ;-). Right now I write this to you seated on a giant plastic tub of clothes which I'm surprised hasn't broken yet due to me sitting on it for extended periods of time. Otherwise the place is still bare, however this weekend when SFL and WOT come I shall finally have furnishings! Yea!! This past weekend my old roomie paid me a fabulous visit, and we got to see some great sights around town. We also found our official restaurant, which we happened upon by sheer chance. You see, the night she arrived we were both hungry but didn't really know what places were around to eat in; when low and behold we saw this hilarious lighted sign on the right which said "Cootie Browns! Real Food!". The place looked packed, and well, we both looked at each other and knew that Cootie's was calling our name. I would never have dared to try the place by myself, but as I'm sure you've noticed two people are braver than one. Let me just tell you! The food was amazing, the atmosphere so perfect!! You can eat inside or out on tables each individually painted, surrounded by walls decorated with hand panted murals of what I can only suppose is the famous Cootie Brown. We had the best time, and declared Cooties as our official place to eat. I knew you would have to hear the story ;-) because I'm sure you can picture us sitting there laughing our heads off for two hours, while a mix of college students, families, and couples in their fifties sat surrounding our lively party, each one enjoying the night just as much as us.


Unfortunately the weekend always comes to an end, and today was my very first day of work! I was again asked if I was old enough to have graduated college and taken my licence exam...I think that its good I'll be working with kids, at least I know that they'll look younger than me. Hehe, alright, that said I am off to bed. Tomorrow is another early morning with a full day of sitting in chairs listening to speakers on patient care and employee benefits....joy ;-). More later!!
