New Job, New Place!!

So I got a job!!! A full-time with benefits, 9-5 job, at MyNewPlace, in San Francisco!!! I started there 2 weeks ago as a Relationship Specialist, and life has been crazy busy since! I actually found a place and moved to the city about a week and half ago! It has been fun, very busy, and crowded living here, and I think I'm gonna like it! The city is hectic, but it has a lot of history, and shall we say, character? Yeah, it's an interesting place and I'm looking forward to exploring the city and going to the museums, and shows, and concerts! Right now I'm just getting used to my new job, MyNewPlace is a rental search engine website, and my role is basically a customer service position, I'm making monthly calls to property agents and leasing consultants that are already clients, my job is to give them tips on how to create a better listing, and take full advantage of the website. I just started making calls a few days ago, and it's been kinda fun talking with people from all over the country! I love talking to the people from the south with their southern charm and fun accent! Anyway, I think it's gonna be a good situation for me. I mean, they feed us all the time, so I don't really need to spend money on food! Well, breakfast at least. :)

On Saturday I actually moved to another place in the city, the place I was at wasn't ideal, so I ended up moving to a different place, where I have a cute little house in the city! There are 4 of us girls living here and 1 bath, so that's still interesting, but we'll make it work! One of the girls is a member I met her at church, and that's how I found out about this place, she's really sweet, another of the girls is married! She'll only be here every few weeks or so cause her husband has a job in Canada or something and so she visits him a lot. The other girl is really sweet and is from San Jose. The house has a beautiful view of the city! It has a big window on one wall and a sliding glass door on the other so you get a sweeping view of the hills of San Francisco, all covered with houses! It's really charming. Well, that's the latest update on my life, I'll write again with some fun stories! Maybe some pictures too! I've gotta start taking some, document my life in the city!

The Poor Little Dears...

So recently I've seen a slew of  pets, dressed in clothes, sweaters, antlers, etc! And although I feel for the poor creatures, it's quite entertaining! I am sad to say that Santa Kitty is my families cat, Cassie! Yes, we tortured the poor girl, and made here wear this!

She is so annoyed here, I mean her ears are pinned back, oh how we torture her! :)




A santa sweater, that combined with her white fir just made her look so adorable, oh and don't forget her little tail sticking up in this pic, it makes her look like a rabbit or something. :) The poor thing could barely walk with that sweater on! She would slink through the house like the Grinch! It was so funny!
The next victim is my brother's dog Tristan, but he didn't mind as much. my mom had a tiger dog costume, and when they came up for Christmas they had him try it on!



He is such a sweet dog, and didn't mind it at all! He was kind of confused and started chasing around the tiger tail! :)

I also went to an Ugly Sweater Christmas party where my friend Crystal dressed her dog in a red Christmas sweater, and I just happened to have some adorable antlers to complete the ensemble,
It was so cute, the poor little guy!




So this last one I just happened to see when I was leaving In-N-Out, this guy was hitchhiking, and he had a hitchhiker of his own!
Isn't he awesome, he;s covered with all sorts of patches and he has a cat on his back, just hanging out, with a cape on!! it was one of the funniest sights I have seen! I wanted to give this guy a ride just cause he was so outrageous!



Here's another picture, just in case you can't see the other one as well! It just makes me laugh, and that cat was so awesome, he was just chilling there, didn't mind at all that he was hanging on this guys shoulder.
I'll just have you know I am definitely not an advocate for dressing up animals in sweaters and such, I just had the lucky chance to get some adorable pictures of these poor little dears... hope they won't hate us forever for dressing the up!
