Officially a Chevron employee!

As of yesterday, I became an official Chevron employee! I've been working here for 6 months as a contractor but I'm making the transition to full-time employee. It's exciting to have more benefits than before and not be blocked from access to important things just because I'm a contractor. Yesterday we went out to Okra for happy hour to celebrate. Jonathan and I have been wanting to go to Okra forever so it seemed like the perfect time! Okra is a charity bar so part of the proceeds from everything you buy goes to a charity. You even get to vote for who they donate to! You get a voting ticket for every drink or plate you buy and they have pamphlets on the organizations so you can make an educated decision!

The voting booth is on the left, very official!
This building is also super old and historical in some way that I should learn more about....
They also have cocktails but you just tell them what you like and they make you something!
I asked for a champagne drink and they made me a French 75: gin, citrus juices, and champagne!


Yay for my new/old job!
Happy hours are the best! Any one have any suggestions for great places to go in Houston for happy hour? I have also loved Hay Merchant, Brio, and Triniti's happy hours. Of course Houston has so many options for great places to go and I'm married to the restaurant expert so I rarely have a problem coming up with lists of options.

Until next time!
