Friends and Family,
I'm here in Maryland enjoying my years of being single and free. I'm working and making friends. Maryland is beautiful and a fun place to be. I'm in a town called Owings Mills just outside of Baltimore. Our Firstline Security apartment office is just 30-45 min away from downtown Baltimore. I've gone down there a few times and have had a blast each time I have gone.
I have seen the Aquarium which in my opinion is nothing compared to the one in Chicago!!! I've walked the streets of Baltimore and had a blast doing so. I've met a lot of bums and seen a lot of cool places. There is a Hard Rock Cafe just off of the Harbor which we went to for dinner as an office. There's The Cheese Cake Factory, The ESPN Zone, PF CHANGS and many many more awesome places to eat. There is a couple streets grouped together and it's called Little Italy. There are a lot of really cute Italian Resaurants there.
I have also gone to an art history museum with some of the mothers that are here with their husbands. Their kids went as well. It was a blast. I took some pictures and of course got some great ideas for sculpting and vessels. I can't wait to be able to start that up again.
Recent event just here in town have been going to an Italian Ice store just a few blocks away. It's kind of like Giffords Ice Cream (for those of you who do not know what that is, it's an ice cream shop in Main where you just walk up to a window and order and then sit on benches and eat your yummy treat) It was really good Italian Ice. I got a Mango flavored Pint for only $3.50 give or take some cents. But I didn't pay for it because it was on Firstline's tab!!!
We get together as an office and go out to dinner at the end of the week if we reach our sales goal. For example if last week we sold 47 than our goal for this week would be 57. The goal increases by 10 each week. It may be just 5 I'm not entirely positive because they change it up a lot. So if we reach that goal we'll receive $10 each to spend on dinner that Saturday. We choose a place at the beginning of the week and the reps work their butts off to reach their goal so they can get their dinner money and get to go out to eat. It's always a blast going out with everyone and just relaxing. We have gone to The Hard Rock Cafe, Rainforest Cafe, Had a BB-Q at a park and we waited 3 weeks to get our dinner money because we all wanted to go to Six Flags but we didn't hit our incentive so we never got to go so we just received the money. It's been fun though. Gives you time to just hang out with everyone and get to know the people you work with.
It has been fun here meeting new people but it's also been pretty hard as well living here without family or good friends around. I've been thinking about all you guys and how much you all mean to me. I love you all and wish all of you the best at your pursuits. I'm now in my own apartment to myself, paying for utilities, rent and food. It's been quit the experience and although it may be hard I know it is much needed.
God bless you all and stay safe and Smile, things could always be worse. hehehe
