I would be there right now.

Well, but if they don't think I'm senior enough, they probably won't call me and SAY that. They just won't call, y'know?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I kind of thought of that, but then remembered all the times I got called in for an interview only to have them tell me they weren't considering me for the job I had applied for, but a lower one. Of course, that only happened when I was trying to move to New York, so the interview required 8 hours on the bus.

True, true, Jesse.

Of course, this job is in Seattle, so we'll see. In any case, the first step would be a phone interview.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Oh, and some crazy chick is demanding pictures, too.

pfft.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Now I'm earwormed with "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing." Even the end of the world hates me.

Better than Def Leppard's "Armageddon It"

....

I hate you all, and will now spork out my eardrums in an attempt to drown out the competing earworms.

I'd be taking out ads in Variety yelling "So there!" in 50-point type.

starts PayPal fund to do just that

I took the El home. It did not catch fire or derail. There were firefighters on my block as I walked home, but I swear that had nothing to do with me, seriously.

Oh my god, I'm a walking destructo ray today.

One thing that the job search people suggested is that you can provide a point-by-point comparison of your experience and the requested skill set -- you can even make it up as a table. Note that a good cover letter shows off your verbal skills and selling ability, too.

I'm home, eating dinner. I've given the keys to my neighbor, have laid out a selection of clothes to pack and have a pile of electronics and their chargers sitting next to me. It's going to be weird carrying a purse with all this crap in it. Usually, I just have books and the cdplayer and batteries. This time, I have no need for AAs.

After dinner, I'll do my nails and maybe finish up the packing. Tomorrow is trash and vacuums and leaving.

Susan W - 78 degrees and overcast sounds heavenly to me.

I just came back from the corner store and I am bathed in sweat - it's that humid

My plans for this weekend involve moving v. little to avoid this as much as possible. Well, except that I have to go pay my rent, drop off a gazillion library books and go to the grocery store.
