Mike and I have finally decided to move in together. While we would ideally like to buy a home together, especially since the market isn’t doing that great right now, we simply cannot yet afford a down payment and would like to wait longer until we can have more money saved up. We are renting a 2 bedroom tri-level apartment in Canoga Park. We are very excited to finally live together every night, rather that just several nights a week. Our official move-in date is January 22, but we will slowly be moving things in over the next two weekends following that. We have a full two car garage, laundry room, living room, central air, alarm system, kitchen, bedroom, office, and little patio. We are very excited about this new endeavor. While the next few weeks will probably be a bit stressful, it is necessary in order to go to the next step in our relationship.
Yesterday, I was shocked to find out that I won the T.Q.S. (Total Quality Service) Award from Time Warner Cable. The T.Q.S. award is awarded once a year to a few members member of each Time Warner Cable Division, specifically 8 people from LA North with thousands of employees. While the Winners Circle Award is awarded to people once a quarter for top sales performance, this award is for people that go “above and beyond” the call of duty in providing excellent customer service. The letter I received states that I am an employee of the year for the Los Angeles Division of Time Warner Cable. How exciting!!! I am very excited and proud to have received this important award at the age of only 21. As a result, of all my hard work and success, Time Warner is taking me and one guest on an all expense paid trip to Puerto Rico. While there, I will have dinner and receive an award and enjoy good times. I will have free airfare, transportation, hotel, and food all courtesy of Time Warner Cable. I am so excited. Of course I would naturally take Mike, my loving fiancee; however, he will be on a mandatory business trip that week in Texas and there is no way humanly possible he can get out of it. As a result, I will be taking one of my girlfriends with me.
