Queries and taco love

So the interview was. Yes, that is my complete sentence. There were good points and bad points. I only noticed the down side up until a few hours ago. I couldn't answer all the questions, and I didn't do well on the role plays, like how could I get a kid out of bed if she doesn't want to get out of bed. Well, there were role plays I did well on. I stammered through the whole thing, but I made some good points. I hope they'll see me as just being nervous and put that aside and think of the answers I made. And I think I did a good job, overall, on the really long questionnaire they gave me. I don't really expect to get the job though. And after I realized that Whitaker is kind of like the last chance place for these teenagers (the average student there has been to 15 other places), I'm not too sure if I want the job. But still, if I get it, I'll take it. And if I don't like it, I'll go somewhere else. And if I don't get it, then I'll look for something else.

I came to this conclusion recently, but my mom reaffirmed it today, suggesting I look for a "pot-boiler," some kind of job just to tide me over while I look for something better. So tomorrow, I'm going to go to the Dollar Tree and see if they have anything open. And once I figure out how to get to the library in Oxford, I'll check that out.

My mom asked, "What about jobs in Arlington? What kind of jobs are there?" I told my mom I remembered AJ and I found a lot online, but I couldn't think of specifics. She then asked, "When does he go back to Arlington?" as he is home at his parents' house for a few weeks. "The 22nd or around there." "When he goes up there, you should go with him and spend a week or so up there applying to places. Come back after a couple of weeks, unless you get some callbacks. And if you find work up there, then we'll figure how to move you up there sooner." So I could potentially be moving a lot sooner than expected. But I'm still going to keep looking for work around here, because I am scraping the proverbial barrel for money at this point. So we'll see what happens.

In other news, I drew my rendition of Cartman's rendition of Jennifer Lopez on my left hand earlier. I've been running around the house saying, "Taco-flavored keeses!"

In other other news, I'm going to Jodie's tomorrow night! We're meeting up with AJ on Saturday for the Raleigh Downtown Live what-have-you of Blue October and Spin Doctors! Le woot woot! Jo and his new girlfriend want to go to Rocky tomorrow night and asked AJ if he wants to go, and he wants to wait until I can go. So I need to call Jodie to see if she has any interest in doing that. To my knowledge, she's never been, and I know I've never been. I'm not even sure what I would wear. And I don't want to do that damn virgin dance. I hear I can just be insistent with saying no, and they'll stop pressuring me. But maybe I'll surprise myself and do it anyway, just becaust that's part of the Rocky experience. That is, if I even go. So I should probably call Jodie and see if she has any interest.

Holla back.

Attention Greensboro homies: This is to you inform you that I will be in Greensboro Friday, July 21st and intend to leave Sunday, July 23rd. I need a place to sleep. I'm eyeballing Tim or Becca, but whoever else who wants to offer a place can do so.
