aaaaaaaargh. I’m not going to say the interview went poorly today but I will say that I am drinking a *VERY* large Cherry Pepsi Icee and this fact is the best thing that happened to me today. Other things that went better today than the interview: 1) Received 3 books from Bookmooch. (total # of…

Further entertainment notes…
1) Watching the season premiere of Burn Notice. Michael Westen is so bad ass. 2) You know what I want to see (other than a picture of Miley Cyrus post head shave – it’s coming, I can feel it)? A movie with a May-December bromance. I’m thinking Abe Vigoda and Michael Cera in a remake…
A response from me…
to me: Dear Me, I will stop looking at Las Vegas vacations if you’ll start keeping our cell phone in our purse so we can get calls from ( ::crosses fingers:: ) POSSIBLE FUTURE EMPLOYERS CALLING TO SCHEDULE A SECOND INTERVIEW for MONDAY, which is WEEKS EARLIER THAN THEY’D ORIGINALLY PLANNED. Is your goal to…
You’re standing on my neck…
Sing it with me! “This is my stop! Got to get off! I may go pop! Excuse me…excuse me! I’ve got to beee dirrrrect! If I’m wrong, please correct! You’re standing on my neck!” ~Splendora, “You’re Standing on My Neck” (Daria main theme song) (Why am I the only one singing??) Anyway, so in another…
A note from me…
to me… Dear Elaine, Please stop looking at Las Vegas vacations. Your vacation is over. You were there for a freaking week. Yes, all the banner ads on all the websites you visit (at home AND at work…sigh) are for packages for the hotels but that does NOT mean that you should click on them….
More yammering…
(Or, the post about the job interview was getting long) Unrelated thoughts: After my job interview, I had to change out of my Stupid Suit (and I get to buy another suit if I have a second interview, shoot me now) so instead of being Not an Idiot and changing in a gas station bathroom…
Mahjobis…what???
Hear ye, hear ye: I think I might actually like my job. Who knew? Mahjobisnotsobaddis. So, I’m still in the endless pursuit of obtaining employment with a company not in the throes of a New Chapter (11). Today I had a job interview at a payroll outsourcer. I think it went well. I interviewed with…
Shopping smart…
Okay…now, I am no Almighty D when it comes to bargain shopping (seriously, she walks out of Target, Rite Aid, the grocery store with a land yacht full of stuff for $10 – I should call her Almighty D, the shopping goddess) but I have developed a few edicts for shopping throughout the last few…
Books
So, I am going to give a big thumbs up to a website I recently discovered: www.bookmooch.com. Basically, it is a book trading website. If I have a copy of Random Chick-lit Book #4 but I don’t want it any more, I can list it in my “inventory.” If you want a copy of Random…
So sleepy…
(and yes, I know that while I am sleepy, my brother and his wife are drop dead exhausted) So, today was a day I call SUPER PAYROLL WEDNESDAY. The workday started at 5 am. Ugh, I hate getting up early. And since sooooomeone insisted on watching all 55 hours of the Celebrity Apprentice finale show…
