holy shit. i was just taking a nap and i was in a pretty deep sleep when my cell phone rang. i looked at the number and didn't recongize it so figured it was probably a telemarketer or something of the sort. so i answered it and it was the hr guy from the company i applied with last week! he said something about how he hoped he wasn't catching me at a bad time so i kinda smacked my face a few times and told him it was a great time. he started asking me questions and telling me about the positions available. he asked what i've been doing since i graduted and i told him about my last job and told him they coulnd't keep me because of financial reasons. eck. i mean i know they were having financial troubles, but that's not the reason i got fired. shit. i hope he doesn't call john since i listed him as a reference. argh. i'm such a dummy sometimes. but this guy was really nice. he told me the job probably wouldn't be full time at first but if i wanted eventually maybe i could do full time hours. he even suggested other places where i could apply to work and asked me where else i had applied so far. not like he was trying to figure out what he was up against or anything like that, but like he really wants me to find a job. he asked me about my gpa and such and i told him my plans for graduate school and all. he was just generally nice. so friday morning i go in for a proofreading test. i'm scared. he said it'll be a spelling and grammer test. i'm good at catching grammatical mistakes, but at times i'm a really horrible speller. i think i'll do some studying and stuff to freshen my memory just because i'm that big of a dork. i'm trying not to get too excited about this... he asked me what kind of money i was looking for and it caught me way offguard so i told him i didn't really have anything mind. but i'm not even going to worry/think about that now. i hope i hope i hope...
beijing is doing well. he's pretty drowsy and out of it on his valium. i woke him up a little while ago to make him eat something. so far he's been eating well which is good, very good. luckily he's only got to be on valium a few more days. tomorrow i need to pick up some more food for him and on monday he goes back to the vet. and thursday is my court case. scary stuff. i need to get all my pictures and shit ready. so for being unemployed i'm managing to keep myself fairly busy i think. after my court case on thursday i'm going to go to my exwork and pick up my fish. i'm pretty sure my bosses will be gone so that's good.
alright, i have got to exercise.
