If you don't watch the office this post won't make sense

Dwight: That’s why you have an assistant regional manager.

Michael: Yes it is…assistant to the regional manager.

Dwight: Same thing.

Michael: No it’s not, it’s lower.

Dwight: It’s close.

SOOOOOO I got the job I wanted! I am the Administrative Assistant at Northern Pharmacy. It's basically a corner-market pharmacy from the outside but it outsources their prescription business to different institutions. I got the news yesterday (March 24th) which was the 2 year anniversary of Ben and I meeting! Who keeps track of that you ask? I do! In case you care about my life we met at Nikki's going-to-alabama/birthday bbq and I'll never forget it! Anyhoo so what a fun day to get great news. Today was my first day and it went really well. I basically do whatever the Manager or Owner need. I was told today that my title is officially Executive Assistant - so take that Dwight!! No ARM here!! 

What have we been up to you ask?

Ben and Caitlin have been thinking...

1. Not having a job is getting REALLY old. I have been to 7 interviews since we've been in Maryland. 2 of which are temp agencies, 1 has rejected me in a letter, and 1 told me I was "runner-up" and that they would call me if the other person didn't accept the position. You'd have to be an IDIOT to not accept a position anywhere right now. But like I always do I kept hope in the back of my mind that that person was in fact an idiot. I finally had to break-up with that interview and move on and realize they didn't want me so they're stupid. On the lighter side I am waiting to hear from the last two. 1 of which wants me to come in on monday for a paid half-day to see how I do. I'll show you how I do, I WORK and you PAY. Deal?

2. School is easy thus far. Ben is doing great in all his classes. He is teacher's pet and takes notes for a disabled kid. How much more Samaritan can you get? But seriously he is doing really well. He plans on taking summer school to speed this whole thing up and get into the Radiography program more quickly. I am kind of jealous that he gets to be in school and sometimes I ask him if I can do his Math homework too so we can check answers - then he looks at me and tilts his head with a slanty-frown.

3. Washington D.C. is cool and surreal. We went there this past weekend and it was crazy to think we were actually there. Like where all the movies are filmed or whenever they say 'headquarters' - we were there! Ben and I really loved the war memorials - they were humbling and moving. Here are some of our favorite moments...

4. We are happy for other people and their exciting news! Please refer to Nate and Lori's blog!!!! HOORAY AND YAY! Also, Colton has some awesome pictures of the Baltimore Aquarium that we saw on Friday night. Please see number 5.

5. I am claustrophobic. We were at aforementioned Aquarium and I don't know if was the muggy-ness and all the fishy smells but I seriously on the verge of a panic attack. Don't get me wrong it was really cool to see the sharks and all the stuff that I never want to see next to me in the water but I thought I was going to freak out! There were tons of people and if I got up close to look at an exhibit or an aquarium and then attempted to turn around and leave I was doomed! Then there were the revolving doors that I thought I would get stuck in. Poor Ben thought I was going to give up and feed myself to the stingrays. I apologize to Nate, Lori and Colton if they thought I wasn't having a good time. I totally was I just wanted to kill myself, thats all.

6. We are SOOO excited for Nate and Lori. We were totally dooped and had NO idea. How sad that we lived here and had no idea? Lori was a champ!
