The big news is that I was laid off from Borders on March 4. I was planning on quitting soon anyway so it wasn't too terrible, just a big shock. I walked into work with no idea that anything was going to happen and 20 minutes later I was walking out to my car without a job. It took me about a week just to wrap my mind around the fact that I didn't have to get up and go to work. They did give me an extra week's pay and I am supposed to get some severance pay towards the end of April.
Except for being freaked out about not having a job, unemployment is pretty nice. I've already finished my medical transcription course. I turned in my final today. I'll find out if I passed within the next 2 weeks. I have lots of time to read, watch TV, work on my silly farmville farm, and finish Jonathan's blanket. I'm going to Sacramento to see the grandparents next week and then up to Utah the week after that. I've had time to do all sorts of things I've been putting off like giving clothes to DI, reorganizing my files, and renewing my library card. I still haven't deep cleaned my room or my car, mostly because I can't find my ipod charger and I want to be able to listen to my ipod while I clean. I may just have to tough it out.
Now I just need to pass my final and find a job. Wish me luck!

Sounds like you are knocking that curve ball Borders threw you out of the park. You may just have to clean your car with the car stereo cranked up like I used to back in the day before ipods. But I still don't own an ipod and I can't remember the last time I deep cleaned my car...
Maybe if you deep clean your room you'll find your ipod charger! :)
How crazy is that? Enjoy the extra time and the trips. That sounds pretty nice!
