I guess just a lil update on life for me now. I know Amy and I have done a lil phone tag and Kelsey and I haven't talked in awhile so I thought I would let ya know whats going on here.
I'm working at Performance Bike in Pasadena, just starting my4th week (I think). 
Its a mellow atmosphere, I love it. I get to talk about bikes all day w/ customers and actually learn a lot from people...problem is that I have to play it off as knowing what a customer is talking about even if I have no clue...I guess this helps me pick up and learn things quickly. Anyways its fun sometimes acting as the expert bike salesman who (in the customers mind) knows everything.

I'll be going to PCC in January to finish out my associates, 
and I guess on top of that I've been teaching Logan his place as the youngest son.

The more life experience I have, the more I realize just how much pretending you know what you're talking about when you don't is a part of almost any job. Successful people are not necessarily the ones who really know a lot, but rather the ones who can convincingly come off as knowing a lot. I mean, you've got to have some knowledge to back yourself up when you get called on it, but still...
Logan isn't picking his lesson up very well.
Dad and I can testify that Sean's a good salesman (so can our wallets)!
Way to go Sean! It's good to see you so happy and doing something you love.
Sounds like everything is really good. I'm glad to hear that. Can you teach Logan to not sleep on my bed before I get home in three weeks?
