So, I'm very much enjoying my job.  I drive people around all morning and get to listen to them tell me about their lives while I'm at it.  Today we were listening to some Hindi music I put on, and one of the residents told me about a friend of hers that was a belly dancer.  I also learned that another resident's daughter lived in India for a while there and now lives in Singapore.  They also all tease me mercilessly.  :D  I tease them right back, of course, so we get along great.  Eventually, I will know everyone's names but it is going to take a while, and I probably won't ever know the ones that don't ride the bus on a regular basis.  There are at least fifty residents in that home.  Give me time.
In the meantime, it feels amazing to finally have a smile on my face when I leave work.  I walked home from work one day (my car's almost out of gas), and I was slightly amazed at how happy I was.  There haven't been a lot of jobs in my life that I've felt this good about when leaving.  I even like my bosses.  They're currently on a cruise.  (Jealous!)
Just thought I'd throw this out as an update to my life.  Good times.
