I imagine I'll go into more detail in the future, but my interview with HPB went well. Assuming nothing happens to block me at the district level, I'll be working at the new HPB in OKC in March. Except in March the job will be in Ft. Worth, which is an interesting story ( Read more... )

they have to love me because they're fam, cats, job searching in a wacky economic crisis

HPB is Half Price Books, the company I was working for in Texas before I came up to OKC to work in the church. :)

We do live in OKC! But they're opening a brand new store up here, which means quite a bit of installation work. Apparently their new system for doing this is to put together the store at the regional warehouse first, price everything, put it on the shelves, etc, and then box everything up and ship t to the new location. So for the month of March, they'd like me to come down to Ft. Worth and help them do all of those things. And then in April, they'll ship everything up to OKC and finish the installation up there. :)

Sadly, no. But I know some people there, so. It's not required that I do it, but I would like to start getting a steady pay check as soon as possible.

Thanks, hon! I appreciate it. :)

He really is a giant, giant kitteh. It's kind of hilarious, because my cat is so freaking tiny, and he is so freaking huge, there's some kind of disconnect when I go back and forth between the two. Like they can't BOTH be cats, can they!? :p

That cat is fucking ENORMOUS. I'm pretty sure it could eat me and its stomach WOULD NOT EVEN BULGE.

And I want details.

It's probably true, dude.

Holy crap, you DO have a mega kitty! That is a LOT of fur, but what a cutie! :D

Hee! Thanks. Layne's adorable, but a bit of a lardbutt.:) I'd put him at around 22-25lbs? The bottom pic is with a wide angle lens, so it stretched him out a little more than usual, but he's a big boy!
