Daniel - A closed mouth knows no foot.

     What's weird about the past few weeks of my life is I feel like I have not changed one bit since that first day in kindergerden right after moving to Rawlins. I just feel like I have since, graduated, gained pit fuzz, and now am responsible for my own toilet paper.     I, in my infinite capacity to change my job and love it, believe I have found what I want to do for a prolonged amount of time: selling cars. I now work for the Volkswagen dealer here in Casper, and am loving it. Not only is the whole process fun and exciting, but the constant need to assess and reassess the words that are crawling out of someone's mouth, only to need to immediately know what the most effective thing to say next is. It's taught me to 1: Shut up and 2: when you do speak, FILTER. Ideally, my job is making someone love something more than the several thousand dollars it takes to have it. Over all things I enjoy most about my job, the people are the best. Not the flakes who blow in looking to just mess with us, the people I work with. The gal who sits right next to me, Sara, actually used to be my competitor in sales at Best Buy. Now we just kill it together.


Sara, my coworker, and I in front of a 4-car lineup that we did in one day.

     I am currently in the process of buying a house. I've not been a fan of renting since I left the apartment downtown, but I know that I want to own multiple properties eventually, and I am in a position right now to take advantage of an opportunity presented to me. So, why not? I currently live in a house on Poplar that I'm renting the upper half. The people who live in the mother-in-law house out back, however, are gross, loud, rude, and unpleasant smelling. So, unless I elect to set their dogs free to a home that will actually take care of them, and drown the rear tennants, Its on me to change my location. So, there's that.
     Tayah and I are doing great. We live together, and continue to plan to do so. I'm losing weight fast with a new diet/excersize plan, and that's exciting. Finally it seems that I've stopped changing my jobs and blaming them for my unhappiness, but instead changed and selected my friends, environments, etc and discovered I was keeping all the wrong things close.

Life is good.
