Big Days Ahead

I should probably be in bed, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to sleep anyway. The reason? At 6am I'll be boarding a flight to Virginia (by way of Ohio...)! Off to be wined and dined for a perfect job on the beach. There will definitely be some less fun parts including the multiple interviews and the public presentation, but I really hope its at least enjoyable. And I really really hope they like me!

I get back super late Monday night and then turn around on Thursday and get another flight to Nashville for an interview just north of there in Kentucky! A little less wining and dining on this one, but at least I'll get to see my sister! The job is a little more administrative than I'd like, but who am I to be picky about a full-time job in the field I'm trying to get in to?

So please be thinking some good thoughts for me this week! And I'll be sure to post here (for my two readers) if I hear any news!

An Important Day in Rachel-Land!

Man, I haven't had a day that I could call a great day in a long time, but today pretty much rocked. As of September 1st, I could've been homeless, unemployed, and uninsured. BUT! I'm not!

It was the last day at the "real" job which might have been tragic if I didn't feel like it was a good thing that they forced me to move on/fired me and that Target wouldn't have let me go full-time. Anyway, I found out they do love me and they brought me banana pudding and THAT, my friends, is a true sign of friendship. You can always buy my love with banana pudding!

Also, managed to find a place to live! One of the sublets I looked at last week ended up working out. It's nice, it's week-to-week and perfecto for my situation, especially since I have two friends coming into town this weekend.

Lastly, I got some short-term health insurance. Not super exciting, but at least I don't have to worry about it anymore.

The cherry on top of the great-day-sundae was getting another interview and this one is for a job in Denver! =no relocation needed! Though the beach in Virginia is still tempting too...

And folks, the fall breeze made it an exceptionally perfect day :)

Hope your day was great as well!
