Did You Know...?

The actress who played Miss Gulch and the Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton) in the Wizard of OZ, is only on screen for a total of 12 minutes? Apparently it was decided she was too scary for little kids and so much of the footage of her was cut. Learn something new everyday. via National Geographic Map of the Day.

Any how, I've been in Seattle (technically Renton) for 13 days and hope to soon fill you in about the details of the drive out here from Grand Rapids. 

Also, it is my sister's birthday today. She and another friend(s?) are currently visiting a friend up in the Yukon, and I hope she is having a good birthday. And that if she got cake, that the bears haven't eaten it all. Thankfully, she has glasses now, so maybe people won't mix us up. 

Oh, and one more thing. During my job search process I am working in customer service, same company, different store. It is a little weird as sooo much is the same (them being a national chain and all) and yet their are also tons of little differences. What makes it doubly weird is that the two people I have worked with so far that are trying to help me get accustomed to the new store have been doing customer service for less time than I have, so in the midst of them "training" me, I end up teaching them a few new tricks.
