I was going to post about visiting Trinity this weekend, but...

Remember that Chicago job?

They just offered me the position.

:Stares at you:

What the hell is happening now?

Anybody know anything about Chicago?

!

I know it gets cold, and that it's further away from Lubbock than Houston is. A friend of mine from high school likes it up there, I think.

What's the job?

[fanfaronade]

The position title is Bilingual Investigator.
It's with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
I... still don't know how I feel about it.
They want me to start December 11. !!!!!

I'm house sitting starting tomorrow, so fingers crossed I'll be on AIM soon.
Otherwise, I'll call you after 9.

Yeah, so turns out they have a mac much to my consternation, and AIM Express says it isn't supported by the browser. Which is IE but maybe not the latest? Hell if I know. Suggestions?

Damnation.

Is what I would be saying if I hadn't tracked down the following page:

Hopefully that'll work. *crosses fingers*

Crap. Not so much with the working.

[cnreddragon]

Okay, damnation.

I...geez. I've looked around Google, but without actually installing anything, I can't find anything that would work. Although gmail does have an instant message type thing, if I remember correctly.

I bet if I wasn't having a drink, I'd be able to figure something out. Damn you, alcohol! This is all your fault!

[fanfaronade]

I'll just call you tomorrow at 9.

[cnreddragon]

It's after 9:00.
