April 26th, 2006hi ho, hi ho
Aaaaand it’s been one of those days.
You know the kind where you have to convince yourself to wait until after work to start drinking? Ring a bell?
Yep, that was my day… and I worked from home. I’d say that’s a sign.
I’ve been job hunting at night. It’s less entertaining than I remember—rather, I’ve never really “job hunted,” so it’s pretty much everything I expected it to be. Mostly boring, trolling sites, reading job descriptions, debating the merits of moving to Kansas (um, no) and if my skills with certain scripts are honed enough to call myself an expert (again, no).
I finally stumbled upon one last night that really piqued my interest. Solid company with a fun motto, great benefits and a job that I could do well… but I’d have to move.
I don’t know if you remember the last time I moved… the bad news, apartment hunting day two and when the movers ripped my couch. Feel free to wail along with me.
Needless to say, the certain knowledge that a job change will also bring an apartment (probably state) change makes the insider kinda grumpy.
So, I guess this means that either you’ve blocked your co-workers from looking at your site, or you don’t care if they know you are looking for another job.
Which is it?
And, I’d just like to give a big middlefinger shout out to all those bitches that my girl works with who drive her crazy. I hate you and hope you die in a fiery crash.
Love,
Kevin.

I don’t care anymore—and that one is on vacation this week anyway.
But my, that made my day, lol.

Fingers crossed. Hopefully it’ll be over quickly. And you know, new beginnings and all that – it’s all good.

I hope so, I really do… what about you? Job yet?

well, if it’s a move closer to the glorious rays of tropical land then there should be no need to whine. if it’s closer to the frigid lands of saddness and snooty new englanders… then yea… you can whine.

Oddly enough, my industry has no foothold in the tropical land. It’s very sad.
On the list… NYC, D.C., North Carolina, Arizona, Colorado and possibly California. That is, unless I find something closer to here.

Thanks Therese.. and curse you for the points. 😛
Grampa.. Sick people shouldn’t type exclamation points. They’ll probably get sicker ’cause of karma.
