Freak Out Time

As you might remember, I am in school full time & graduating in December. I have been getting nervous about the whole getting a job part coming up. I have not worked since September 2003 (at least not at a paid position!). I have not had a job interview since early 2001.

There was an internship posted at school with a company that I am interested in but for a job out of my realm. I applied for that one. I also applied for another job that a former professor told me about that he had heard about from a former student. Again, out of my realm & requiring a degree, which I still lack.

Imagine my surprise when the first place called last week while we were at the beach for an interview. I had to fill out about twenty pages of the "short" form screen and application. Dang, how long is the long form?? Anyhow, the interview was this morning. OMG, I totally bombed it! It was horrible! And in the middle of it, the guy tells me that I am one of four folks they are interviewing....that made me super nervous. Then I freaked out & couldn't do a good job on the interview. Oh well, it was practice, which I definitely need. The job seems like it would be totally cool too! A real challenge for someone. I really don't think there is anyway I'll get an offer.

This afternoon I was pretty bummed about the bombing. So I was going to take a nap. Then the phone rang. The other company wants an interview! OMG! So that is going to happen on Monday. I'm pretty nervous about it. This is an hour interview she told me with two people for thirty minutes and then a little half-time break and another half hour with two different people. They sent me an interview itinerary. Holy shit....I did not know those existed.

I am totally in freak out mode and my husband is at work where I cannot call him. Argh! I am having a complete freak out.

On a lighter note, a guy I went to middle school & high school with is moving here next month & coming up this weekend to continue looking for his new home. I think we are going to go out with him this week. That might be interesting! We have been emailing & he is such a nice, smart fella.

So....hope you are having a great day!

How Weird Are You????

Today, as I was perusing my friends on Facebook, I came across this link. Of course, having been told I was weird, strange, odd, and unique (that was Leslie Shane, a nice girl that could never say anything mean to anyone!) since I was a youngster, I had to check it out. Since the masthead to this blog says "We're like you, only maybe a little weirder", I thought it might be fun to put that theory to the test! Take the quiz and then report your scores.

Now since I knew I was a little strange, the fact that the quiz confirmed that was no surprise. The score was higher than I anticipated, an 80! 80?! Damn! Who know I was that strange? I really don't think I am that odd but whatever.

What's your score?

A New Post!!!

Well, it has been pretty quiet on this blog. Where are my fellow bloggers? Losers. Hosers. Big Bad Dorks. I love them, though!

Still looking at cars. Have found the one I want. Now I just have to figure out how to afford it! Maybe I'll win the lottery. I'd like the 335 but Kevin says it is too much for my lead foot. I want it in Montego Blue with the dark Saddlebrown interior. Check it out & let me know if you like it. Drove one a few weeks ago. Man, it is a dream! I love it.

What else? Went to the Tour de Georgia bike race. It was great! I enjoyed seeing all the sexy, fit boy legs everywhere. I have never felt fatter in all my life. Damn! Those cycle folks are super skinny. I must lose some weight. Maybe I should get off my duff & go exercise. Um, no. I have studying to do. But I have been walking twice a week after my night class. Well, it just started last week. You have to start somewhere, right?!

Also have been connecting with some old high school friends. My twentieth reunion is this fall. Actually, I did not graduate from the school that is having the reunion---moved after Freshman year. But I have been invited & look forward to going.

I also look forward to graduation this December! Woo-hoo! Yippee! Yee-freakin'-haw! I have a full load this summer and then 13 hours in the fall. I'll be done! No more school for me. I can't wait. I hope I can get a job. Actually applied for two last week. Have heard nothing. Hate that! Got to get a decent job so that I can afford my car!!

Hopefully everyone in the blogosphere is doing well & maybe things will liven up here soon.
