With the move impending, I put in my 2 weeks' notice last Monday. This coming Friday is my last day at work. Still no job yet, so this move is very terrifying, but, well, we have some money to survive for a while. In the meantime, I'm going to focus on job hunting, school, exercising (for reals this time), and just spending time in San...

Sounds like you're full of great ideas 
And with your upbeat attitude I get the feeling that you can conquer anything 
I hope you like San Fran!
And with your upbeat attitude I get the feeling that you can conquer anything I hope you like San Fran!So, some news. Due to Maya having a series of crises, mostly mental, and me being frustrated with my job, I put in my 2 weeks' notice on Monday. Which means my last day of work is September 25. A bit sooner than I'd anticipated, but I'm ready to move on. I'll be moving to San Francisco for good around Sept. 30th or Oct. 1....

Crush of the moment: Diana Rigg as Emma Peel. Jesus H. she was hot.
aldremech:
Hell yes. Get her and Raquel Welch naked in a hot tub, and that would signal the end of days I think.
So... Dollhouse-great show, or amazingly great show? Discuss.
Ok, just wanted to apologize for the one-track-mindedness of this blog over the past 6? or so months. Are things drawing to a close? I dunno. Still, I'll return you to the interesting patter of... uh....

Fajitas would be the way to go if you have a shit ton of fresh ingredients

Unsurprisingly, my arm hurts. Directly correlation with the new ink, naturally. My tattoo artist is not only a great artist, but also a complete sweetheart and someone I've actually hung out with outside of the chair. One of these days, I'll figure out a good way of taking pictures of my arms without taking my shirt off (I'm self-conscious).

Adding at least 2 more pieces to my left arm, continuing with the celtic work until I have a half sleeve, then I will go back to the right arm for an H.P. Lovecraft art bonanza.
aldremech:
I will have plenty of beer to make it all better.
Blearg. So tired. And yet, it's been forever since I seen a show, so I'm going to see the Fruit Bats, Golden Boots, and someone else at Plush tonight.
Spoke to my contact at job #2. They "want to bring me in for an interview" but the HR folks have to finish up the arrangements and so on and so forth. And, apparently, they're handling...

yay for interview opportunities! ...
aldremech:
Yeah, I am pretty pissed about the whole thing. Hopefully I can find him.
I am still pretty optomistic about the interview I had the other day. Hopefully I will hear something in the next week or so.
I am surprised you haven't seen more opportunities thrown your way.
Does anything ever happen at Plush anymore? Place is always a ghost town when I am out there.

Spent Friday-Monday in San Francisco. Friday's interview in Santa Clara went pretty well; I'm feeling positive about it. The one thing making it unattractive is the distance, but I am used to driving pretty far for work these days. There's another lead in the works, in Foster City, which is much closer. We'll see what happens.

good luck with the jobs hun...
Boo hoo hoo, bitch bitch bitch, poor me. Sorry to drag y'all down lately.
There is some GOOD news. We may have found a buyer for Maya's car (a 2002 PT Cruiser, manual transmission). So, that's actually pretty exciting. Also a couple of job prospects appeared in the past couple of days. Nothing really solid, but a couple of good leads.

Nice. Hope the leads pan out for you.
Worst. Move. Evar.
Anyway, back in Tucson. Still employed, but (semi)homeless, still no prospects in the Bay Area, and no lady (for the moment).
