First:  I got a call back from Southwest!  They called initially yesterday, gave me until noon today to call them back, and we ended up playing phone tag for a little while later in the afternoon before doing a phone interview.  I will hopefully get another call in a week or two to set up a face-to-face interview.  Fingers crossed ( Read more... )

Thank God this year is done.

• I got pneumonia
• I quit my job
• I have had to accept the fact that I will soon have a new brother-in-law whom I abhor
• My (youngest) sister walked out of the house and never came back
• My (youngest) brother got expelled from two different schools for drugs (first for dealing, second for using), and is now in a rehab/halfway ( Read more... )

So, as of Monday, I no longer have a job.  For the gory details, go here.

I'm looking for jobs in Dallas, Colorado Springs, and Las Vegas at the moment.  I'd rather be anywhere than Vegas (I'd really rather be in San Diego, but that's mucho expensive), but it'd probably go better for me if I take a temporary job here, pay off my little remaining ( Read more... )

Alternative Title: No, I'm Not Dead Yet (Though My Body Would Argue the Point)

So I started night classes at the Nevada School of Massage Therapy in January. 1900 to 2230 M-Th every week until graduation on December 12th. Fifty weeks straight. No breaks, no vacations, no missing classes. My social life which was so minute as to be invisible ( Read more... )

 Today has been a day for prayer, apparently.  DC's wife was in an accident earlier today (he's the director of the college and young singles departments at church), and one of his young singles died as a result of a different accident last week.  His wife's all right, just a little shaken up, but he's been having a rough few weeks with that and ( Read more... )

That's the good thing about working at a bank. You could be bored out of your skull one hour, and racing in six different directions the next. Regardless how fast or slow the day went, how good or bad, you always come home with a story, be it about a client's woes, a co-worker's drama, or the oddities of people who come in and out of the bank every ( Read more... )

We're adjusting to a few changes to the branch at the moment.  Ruby is no longer manager - she's moving into the training department.  However, instead of the guy we expected to come in to replace her, we're getting a different lady, which has all of us a little upset and off-balance.  My understanding was that Carrie was supposed to take over the ( Read more... )
