Mrs. Anette Breeze

The 1997 Chevy Venture now has a proper name:

Mrs. Anette Breeze.

Thank you to all who offered up names for the vehicle.

I finally settled on the current name after much deliberation. Mrs. Anette Breeze was formerly the librarian and fourth grade teacher of a small private school in Conway, SC. Xavi Ferdon, a former student of the original Mrs. Breeze, had this to say:

"She was really a very good librarian."

Mrs. Breeze (the vehicle) is unfortunately quite ill at the moment, and needs to hit the shop tomorrow for a bit of work that all who know her had guessed would be necessary. Besides this small problem, she is doing well, and all information points to a speedy recovery and a long life.

In other news, here are the job prospects that are looking hopeful at the moment:

1. Waiter at a fancy restaurant called "Table" (mentioned in an earlier post).

2. Insulation installer with a "green" insulation company. This seems to be quite an Asheville phenomenon, this whole "green" contracting revolution, and I would be willing to bet that there are few insulation-related workers outside here that close their emails with the phrase, "Much Peace"

3. Waiter at a somewhat snooty cafe in the area. Xavi has told me that if I end up working there, I must promise to find out if it is company policy to be rude and slow, or if this is just a coincidentally shared characteristic of many of the workers.

In other other news, I will be heading off this weekend to attend LEAF (Lake Eden Arts Festival), a local-area festival that will feature music, workshops, etc. We'll be camping out there, and it should be a great time.

More soon.
