Interviews

I had two interviews today. The first was for an "impressions coordinator". While the title sounds kinda pud-whack it seems like it could be a pretty cool job. I am supposed to have a second interview next week. I also had an interview for an administrative assistant. The interview only lasted 10 minutes! I don't really know what to make of it?

Thought of the Day
What do you consider 2nd base?

New Faces

This new girl has been hanging out with BestFriend alot lately. I can't think of a name for her, some options are; Former-Dater-of Nelson (too vivid), RiverGirl (Makes her sound like a hobo), or ToeSocks (I am leaning towards this one). She seems nice enough. We'll see how it goes.

No real news on the job front. I have an interview on Friday. At this point I just want anything! I've been looking at the guard alittle. I am supposed to go in and talk to a recruiter. They have a pretty nice student loan repayment program that would be nice considering I have a couple of those.

I've been helping Father work on houses. It has really helped turn things around with us. Maybe this whole unemployment thing will be for the best.

Only time will tell.

Thought of the Day
Things always have a way of working themselves out.

Rough Start

What a day... what a day...

BestFriend and I went out last night to Mosquito Creek (super sketchy) and I got a lil' tore up. We had a blast. BestFriend asked me an odd question while we were there. I don't know what to make of it? I guess only time will tell.

I know I haven't been able to go out alot lately. I hope everyone is ready to go and party when I get a job! It is going to be wildness!

So I woke up this morning and got a call from Gallup. Apparently, they can't start the training class that I was supposed to be in on Monday. Arg! It might be a couple of weeks... double arg! What is my deal with jobs?

After having my dreams crushed by Gallup I decided to go help Father work on some houses. While on my way I got in a car accident! Triple arg!

What a day... what a day...

Drama has a way of rearing its head when you least expect it.

In Hiding

Don't tell anyone but this Drama Queen has gone underground... TO ESCAPE THE ARTIC'S COLD GRIP!!!!
It is everywhere! My God!

I have an interview at Home Instead tomorrow. I am very ready to get back to work. It is funny how much I miss working on a regular basis. Monday can't come soon enough.

Thought of the Day
I have a dream...
What is the state of that dream?

Cold Nebraska

Well I returned from beautiful Florida a couple of days ago. I am glad to be back but I'm not a fan of the weather. It is very cold today! Burrrrrrrr!

One thing I'm not excited about is going back to sitting around here. I wish my new job started a bit sooner!

Thought of the Day
I wish I could get back to normal

Sunny Florida

Well I made it to Florida today. My flight left O town at 6:00 am this morning. Thank you Green Hoodie for the ride. I know it was very early for you. The plane was so fucking small I thought I was going to go crazy! Then we delayed getting in the ATL so I had to haul ass to the other side of the airport. Good thing they had these nice trains to take me. So I eventually made it to IMG (by the way it was 75 when I landed this afternoon, I'm currently wearing shorts and a T-shirt and it is 6:30!!!) It is amazing here! I can't believe it!

Well I have to jet and go watch a game. God life it hard right now.

Buzzkill

So I was having a pretty decent day today until I spoke with my father. I mean... I leave for Florida on Tuesday, it is New Year's weekend, today was my last day at Sitel, and fans were finally installed in the apartment (better late than never I guess). So all and all a pretty decent day.
I had called Dad's gf to see how he was feeling and was planning on taking PrincessNic over to see him tonight. Then I get a call from him and he's pissed off as usual (complains about the house and the car). All he ever does is bitch to me. Can he really get that mad if his friend is an idiot and has been "fixing" the car for the last 6 months? I wish he would have just let me take it to the mechanic when it first broke. I had some extra money back then!
I wish I knew what to do because all I want to do is say, "have a nice life!"

Thought of the Day
I hope the grass is greener on the other side.

Happy Boxing Day

Happy super-obscure-English-holiday... day

Had to go back to work today. But not before I went to another interview. It was another staffing agency. (blah)

I realized the other day that my life was not living up to its namesake. There just hasn't been enough drama lately. But fret not... Babymama and I threw down real nice last night. We had decided to meet at 8:00 so that I could give PrincessNic back to her. But I couldn't get ahold of her to see where she wanted to meet. Then I get a text message asking if I could just keep her. Don't get me wrong I love spending time with my daughter but nothing pisses me more than making a plan and scraping it on a whim.

So after some yelling and... more yelling Babymama let me know that I should have just assumed that she would have been later than 8:00. So basically, I've been notified that even if Babymama tells me a time or we make a plan I should know that it is stupid of me to even think that we'll stick to that.

Merry Christmas

What a whirlwind of a week. Christmas day hasn't even arrived yet but I'm mostly done. How ironic, huh? No one seems to have the patience to actually celebrate holidays on the actual holiday. Oh well...

Exchanged gifts with BestFriend last night. He is the best on Christmas! GreenHoodie took a priceless picture of him literally gasping at the sight of his popcorn popper. He got me a Real Madrid jersey. It is sweet!

Tomorrow, GreenHoodie is coming over in the morning to exchange gifts. I have to got see my father up at the hospital some time in the afternoon. And sometime I am going to go meet GreenHoodie's father.

Thought of the Day
That's how I roll.

Time In

It has been a while since I've written. I'm sorry. What a bad drama queen!
So two weeks ago I started at Sitel. It sucks the life out of me. This place is so ghetto it is unbelievable. Mother has been here all week. I haven't been able to spend much time with her since I've been working all week. We had our Christmas last night. It was pretty fun. PrincessNic got a vacuum, clothes, some toys, dvds, and a digital camera. Yes, a camera! I don't even have a digital camera(Not that I would use one, but still...)! Mother leaves tomorrow morning.

The Trinity

I am very proud of BestFriend. He has been getting some good minutes in the game.
GreenHoodie and I did the parental thing and met the girl that is courting our little boy. We even got a hand shake (it was firm).

Guess the Bra: 30 year old, Skirt, or Leggs

BestFriend and I accompanied GreenHoodie to the Jew party tonight. It was fun. Good Kosher fun. Miss-I-Request-to-Remain-Nameless won a facial (Cue BestFriend's joke) she traded it for a blue hoodie.

Thought of the Day

When at the Fox and the Hound don't order a drink and expect to get it any time soon.

The Gift

Babymama called me yesterday to let me know that there was one thing I could mark off of PrincessNic's wish list. A Pony. A freakin' pony!!! Apparently she rode it around for about 4 hours yesterday.

The closest thing to a pony I have

Game Day

BestFriend and I went to see the Huskers beat up on Colorado today. We had pretty good seats. We sat behind some guys that were really into the game. It made it really fun!! We saw the offense sign from the Man Law commercial.

Most Important Game of the Week!!!!

The View

Thought of the Day

Give some love to the offense

Thank you. Thank you very much...

I got the call from MSI today. They decided to offer the job to someone else. So I am going to call First Comp tomorrow and let them know that I would like to become a claims adjustor!!!

I'm pretty excited. I hope that I enjoy my new job! I need to get myself back on track here quick. There is not much time before Christmas.

Thought of the Day
I'm bored.

First Offer

Exactly two weeks into my vacation I have been offered a job. I had my second interview at First Comp today. They would like me to be their new claims adjustor. I would like to thank Inateck and my manager Jen for canning my sweet ass. Looks like I will be getting a $6,000 raise and full benefits. I am going to wait until I hear back from MSI.

Thought of the Day
Yes, someday...

Second Round Interview

I have my second interview at MSI today at 4:00. It is with the VP. I'm pretty nervous. This week has been tough. I got three interviews set up and I had two (three including today) but I haven't been able to get anymore set up. I've been "on vacation" for a week and a half. But it seems like forever.

I'm very excited about the interview today but I'm also afraid that I'm putting all my hopes this one job. I'd feel better if I had some more interviews set up. On Monday I'm going to go put some apps at the Mall to try to find something.

Wish me luck...

Here comes the sun...

Interview Two

Went to interview number two today. It was very odd. I met with these two guys (neither of them HR guys or guys in the job I was interviewing for) and they had like 5 questions for me and that was about it. The interview lasted about 30 minutes. I don't really know what to make of it. Oh well.

I got invited back for a second interview at MSI. It is Wednesday. I am very excited. It seems like a great place to work.

More to come...

Thought of the Day
Everything will be ok.

Interview Numero Uno

I had my first interview today. It was at MSI. It seems like a great place to work. I think the interview went well. They told me they were bringing in 5 people (including me) and they would bring back the top two candidates next week for another interview. So I guess we shall see.

I have interviews on Monday and Tuesday as well.

More to come... hopefully good news.

Involuntary Vacation

Well today was a first day of vacation. I received a message after work on Monday letting me know that I did not need to go back to work today. It was a temp job so I always knew that there was a chance that I would not be there forever. However, the way I was let go was very disrespectful.

So I put out some resumes today and actually got a call back today. I'm pretty excited. The jobs I'm applying for are much closer to what I'd like to be doing.

Thought of the Day
Everything happens for a reason.

Beer + Free Darts

What a night. BestFriend and I have found the perfect little hole in CB. We decided to go there for the first time on Halloween. We were (literally) the only two people in the bar. We found the dart machine and (key the music) it had like 900 credits on it. BestFriend and I tore through about 200 of them that night.

So Thursday rolls around and we are up for some drinking (I know... when aren't we?) and we decide to go back. It is like no one ever plays this machine! We have played about $75 worth of darts for free this week!

What an amazing discovery! BestFriend now occupies 8 of the the Top 10 spots on the machine. I... occupy 2. But one of them is 3rd! So there!!!!
