I am moving to Emporia in the summer. May 21 is the last day of work (a Thursday) so it would be nice if I could find something beginning on the 25th. I am certain that I could get a para job starting next semester, and Emporia's starting wages for paras is over $1.00 more per hour than that of a Dodge City para. Plus they would compensate for experience, so that would be rockin'. Over the summer though, it would be nice to find something that payed lots and lots of money. And if I found that, I may not care about any type of para job. Living expenses would be higher for me, but I would have a place of my own, something I desperately want. Plus, I would have the incomparable joy of trees and humidity, something Eastern Kansans take for granted until they have to do without.

My muscles freaking ache. All over my body. I didn't even know I had abdominal muscles until today. Or at least I don't use them much. You wouldn't think that jogging a couple of miles and playing basketball would make you feel it all over, but I guess if you are as out of shape as I am, exercise can take it's toll.
