Job update: I had that interview via phone. It was actually two separate interviews and I'm so glad they are over. I decided that if I do not get this job, I am going to stop with the job hunt. It is just way too frustrating. I'll just stick it out with my current job and try to make the best of it. I should know by next week if I've been picked for the job. Or at least picked to do further interviews face to face.

Jack is born! Check out the blog dedicated to him!

Job update: May have that Indianapolis interview after all, via telephone. To be continued....

If you keep up with my sister's blog you are aware of the coming of my nephew Jack. Hopefully, this evening we'll have some good news about his much-anticipated arrival.

Apparently I was destined to have a boring, non-personalized Blog. So I picked the most boring template there is. Well, maybe not THE most boring. At least I have a little bit of color on here. Hey, grey is a color.

A human resourses guy from a company I've been in contact for a job called yesterday and left a message on the machine that said that they have an interview lined up for me on this Friday. I called back and said with a little manuvering I could make it. He called me back today and plans were made for the travel agent to call me about arrangments for flying to Chicago for the interview. (Job's in Indianapolis). Fast forward a couple hours. My current supervisor calls and says (before I even say that I need Friday off) that I HAVE to be in the lab on Friday because my Laboratory Director will be in San Juan. Crap. Called the HR guy again, left a message and said that I can't make Friday. He hasn't called me back yet. So it looks like another job has bit the dust. Apparently Friday was the only day I could interview. They want this job filled by Monday. Apparently God does not want me in Indianapolis.

I think I said Soda when I was growing up. Never Pop. I may have said Coke only when I actually wanted a Coca Cola.

Why does this keep happening to me??? Why? Why? Why? Everytime I try to do a bit of personalization on this blog it starts freaking out!!!! Someone email me with the answers, PLEASE!

Well, I've seen everything. Walking around the block today for my exercise I saw, and there were witnesses, a man playing the flute while driving. Meditate on that for a while.

Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3....

I'm tempted to agree more with the Disney quiz rather than the Barbie quiz. I was interested in politics when I was a member of the Hugh O'Brian Youth Organization, but that interest faded away along with the interest in, well, Barbies.

You may have noticed that I haven't been around lately. I went to my interview in Virginia. It went well. They called me a week later and offered me the job. The only thing is they offered me $14,000 less in salary that I wanted. Bummer. I couldn't take the job. I just have waaaay too much debt to take a pay cut. On the vacancy announcement it had a certain salary range and what they offered me was on the total bottom of the range. They couldn't even negotiate. I was a bit upset and then realized if it was meant to be it was meant to be. I have a job and don't necessarily have to take the first job I am offered. I have a couple other opportunities that may turn up. So that is my update. Pray that these other opportunities show up, though. I may have a job, but I still hate it.

Which Disney Princess are you?
