I hate when it's been a long while since I've updated because I know that plenty of things have happened that warrant mentioning, but I can't recall them all by the time I get motivated to log them. I'll try anyway ( Read more... )

I think I need to talk more about my family reunion from last weekend. It was my first-ever reunion on my dad's side. It was my second time seeing my dad in my adult life, and it was my first time meeting everyone else in person (or at all-- but I knew quite a few people, thanks to the wonders of Facebook). My cousin Bonnie (who is my dad's first ( Read more... )

Miki: I just told Laura about the rambling concern about the Iron Cross this morning, and I ended it with, "I'M NOT HITLER!" She said, "Good, I didn't have to ask." She then added, "You would be a pretty Hitler."
Miki: I replied, ".....I don't know how to take that."
Miki: That's got to be one of the worst backhanded compliments ever.
Miki: I really ( Read more... )

It's been a few days since I updated, and you won't get a long update right now because I have to leave for work in seven minutes. But things you'll hopefully eventually hear more about:

• Hershey Gardens, Chocolate World, and why it's no surprise that I gained five pounds in five days...
• I think I actually aced an interview, but most likely I'll have ( Read more... )

I probably failed to mention the other day during my summation of life that I also work part-time as a pharmacy technician. So I'm doing that. It's not a bad gig, but lately I've just been so stressed with the constant flux. It's not too bad when I work on filling the prescriptions because I don't have to worry so much about interacting with ( Read more... )

I just got a callback about a clerical position I applied for at Office Team (which, as I learned through the phone call, is a division of Robert Half something or other that I've applied to for a couple of positions) up off of DCJobs.com. They're going to call me next week about an interview for the following week. Hot damn. Ask and ye shall

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 ( Read more... )

My interview is tomorrow! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I just did a quick drive out there from the house to be sure that I knew how to get there. And it was as easy as I thought it would be. I'm going to get there early though, just in case it turns out that I'm supposed to be in a different building. I am so nervous. It didn't really hit me until ( Read more... )
