well, i called the woman with whom i interviewed. she said that they "had found someone qualified." WHAT??? ok, first of all, that implies that i'm not qualified. which i am. but also, they weren't going to call me back. and maybe i'm silly, but i thought that it was common courtesy to reply to those people you interview. professional and all. because of the...

writing coverletters and desperately hoping that the people i interviewed with on friday call me back. i really really really want that job.
ate nachos earlier.. the carne asada was more like pot-roast, but they were still greasy and wonderful and tasty. i feel kind of gross now, though. oh well.

thanks tiger, it went really well and I had a good time so we'll see from here. I hope those people call you back, did you throw any dust at them to beguille them or we're you just your normally stunning and provacative self.

i just got back from the beach. my parents have some sort of time-share thingy there, and they invited my sweetie and me to go there this weekend. it was great.. they paid for food and even a trip to the bookstore! it was so much less stressful than trying to take a vacation just by ourselves, because of the money thing. it's strange how...

I don't believe that when you're really poor you need a vacation most. When I've been really poor, I've been able to make a vacation out of any time alone with my baby. When I've been really rich (like during the dot-com boom when I was making tens of thousands a day), I needed one the most, and nothing I could find was good enough for how rich I thought I was. The best suite on the cruise ship wasn't good enough -- we should have booked a better ship!!! When I got poor (or middle-class) again, i began to just enjoy a weekend trip to a rock concert with a pair of backstage passes, $40 worth of mushrooms, and my boss paying for the shitty Motel-6 style hotel. That's been the most vacation we've had in a few years and we've loved every one.

Oh (i never finish these things in the first post) -- nothing moves me mroe than the ocean at night. I romantically dream that rather than dying, I'll just drift off in the under-tow on enight, and live forever in the ocean under the moon.
went out in the sun today, to hand out flyers. it was nice to be in the sun, but an awful lot of walking. i have TWO, count them TWO interviews tomorrow and day-after tomorrow, though, so i'm doing ok. i'll work in an office yet!
i even got a little bit sunburned. i'll have a tan, and freckles, soon. it's not like i set...

what a beautiful journal entry.
i'm sorry that i've been remiss in replying in peoples' journals. i've been doing more stuff off of the site.. not much time here.

Congrats!! My sister just graduated and I need to get her a graduation gift. I'm thinking she could just use some bucks!! She, too is on a job hunt.

Hey, what day does Ulysses take place on?
I'm reading a book called "Yeats is Dead!" right now. It is written by fifteen different Irish authors, each doing a different chapter. It's about this guy who has a copy of Joyce's unpublished final novel called Yeats is Dead and they keep making references to Bloomsday, but I don't remember when it is.

i'm going to be graduating tomorrow. for tonight, we finished most of the rum that we had in the house. i'm quite good and tipsy at this point. i need to drink a bunch of water so i feel ok tomorrow. if anyone has any suggestions at all for good resturants to take my parents out to that you can post before 9:30 tomorrow, that'd...

i saw a bird get hit by a car yesterday. i think it was a swallow. all of its companions flew out of the road, and it looked up into the air a little, back and forth. i was coming from the other direction in my car, not really comprehending that the bird might not fly out of the way. i don't know if it...

Congrats on going up! I haven't checked your set out yet, but I plan to do so ASAP... yow wow.

you are far more gorgeous then i imagined. i loved your set. it was fabulous. welcome to being a full fledged SG.
and suddenly, and unexpectedly, the fog lifts. i have an interview on saturday. the job doesn't pay well, and it's not many hours, but it's a job. and if i get it, i can work at two jobs, which i think might be better anyway - less boring that way. i'd be working in a physical therapy office, doing front desk stuff, and also being...

your candid pics are so cute too.

I noticed you posted something about wishing you had gone to the Dahlia video shoot. If I do another video for them I'll be sure to get them in it, you have a cool look.

DO NOT CHANGE for a job - you will regret it forever...yes, it was rude for them to not contact you and tell you that you were a non-hire.......you just need the right match...my secretary has purple hair and two visible tats...screw everything else.......she does a dman good job - even if she stick out in my rather conservative law firm
i dont think dressing up to get a job is really selling out. i dress up in full suit whenever i go meet with potential clients. i guess i just could care less what i wear in general. plus, my suit rocks. you can always find a way to look conservative enough to get a job, but still rock out.
or dress up to get the job and then when you have it wear whatever the fuck you want.
