(no subject)
My interview today went decently. Better, I think, than the other two, however, I could be wrong. I won't know for at least a week about this position though so I'm trying to not get too antsy about it. I'm getting frustrated though with this whole lack-of-job thing. I feel like I have no idea what to apply for because in theory administrative assistant sounds like something i can do but once i start hearing about it, it's overwhelming and i start thinking i can't possibly handle it. I don't know what I like to do, I don't know what I'm good at. I just want a job I don't hate going to every day that will pay me enough to pay my bills and have a little left over for emergencies like pizza and chinese food. or you know real emergencies. But I don't know where to look anymore... I'm frustrated. Sigh.
Anyway after my interview i took the shuttle from the building to the Metro and then walked the two blocks to Ballston Common Mall. I'd never been there before so I wanted to look around and see what was in there. I ate lunch and walked around and then eventually went back to the Metro. The first train I got on only made it one stop before they shooed us all off because of an "electrical issue". So there we are all coming off this train like cattle, waiting for the next one to show up. When it finally did arrive, I managed to get into the fullest car of the whole damn thing and pretty much was like 2 inches from like 5 different people and almost ended up in this guy's lap a couple times. He was kinda cute. He kept smiling at me and offered me his seat but I politely declined. A couple more jerky moves by the train and he would have been my seat himself. Which may or may not have been a bad thing. Whatever. Anyway, at one point I had my face in some guy's armpit. That was not pleasant. Finally we got to Rosslyn and I made it down the escalator in time to catch the Blue Line to Franconia... thank goodness, cuz I would have had to stand around and wait for another and I was not in Patience Mode. After what seemed like forever I finally got to King Street Metro and had to sit and wait for a stupid bus for about 20 minutes. Bah humbug. It was so hot!!! And there was no air circulating.. I was miserable. And I'm a wuss when it comes to heat. By the time I finally got home I had decided that my day had been shot... I was ready to collapse.
So I'm home for about 20 minutes and an IM pops up on my screen. It's Joe. He says to me (and I quote) " Hey Sarah, look, Id like to always be friends with you, but after the way we fought the last time, the things that were said, and the whole idea of starting over "AGAIN", just isnt going to work for me. I had already started my getting over you, and Im not turning back, I just cant go thru this again. Your a great girl and Im sure you will find someone that will be a soulmate. Im always available if you want to talk though". (I saved the IM). What the hell was I supposed to say to that? I yelled at him for ruining my day and then went on a tirade about how he was giving up and blah blah blah and spent the next hour sobbing. Stupid jerk. I wish I could just get over him. *Sigh*
That was my day. Tomorrow, I'm going to the pool. Dammit. I've been saying I was gonna go all week but with interviews all over the place I didn't want to go to the pool and get toasted and then have to go to an interview looking like a tomato. But I can get as crisp as I'd like, I don't have anything to do. So that's what I'm gonna do. Watch tomorrow be the one day of the week where the sun doesn't shine at all and it's about 55 degrees out. Grrr. Me and Mother Nature will have some words.
Saturday I'm finally going sofa shopping. We were supposed to go last weekend but my mom decided she didn't want to and heaven forbid I do something on my own. Bah. Anyway, Saturday it is.
That's that. Goodnight.
