fingers crossed, my time is coming now
It's November. I still haven't found a full-time engineering position. I had a couple more interviews recently, but neither company could hire me (in both cases, it felt like a monetary thing, not really a dislike of my qualifications or me personally). All kinds of companies are having hiring freezes, and it may not get better until next year. For the time being, I'm trying to get temp work at UNC. It might pay better than Galaxy if they give me a lab position, plus it would be much closer to Carrboro. Hopefully that will give me 15-25 hours of part time work every week, then I can still have time for interviews, etc.
It's cute that I wrote in September that I'd be happy to even lose 20 pounds. Well I've now lost about 22 doing the Couch to 5K program. I'm about to start Week 8, jogging for 28 minutes, tomorrow. I've also been watching what I've been eating (with fitday.com), of course, but I really do think that being able to jog for 25 minutes nonstop has done a lot for my health and wellbeing, regardless. I still plan on eating a piece of pumpkin pie next week.
In other news, Jonny and I have officially been dating for a year now. He's the best. :D
