Jun. 18th, 2011 12:37 pmApologies for never showing up to IRC chat last night-- I was feeling rather like crap and probably would have been terrible company, so I decided to sit that one out. I might be there tonight if we're still doing it.
Also, sorry for that god-awful self-pitying post from yesterday. Dear lord, I should NOT post when sleep-deprived and mopey.
I was accepted to the market research company. It's definitely not a Job job, but it's a way to get out and about, doing something fun and getting reimbursed for it. Most of the assignments also pay a small fee; nothing to shout home about, but hey, going shopping with reimbursement AND being paid? Pretty good deal. And I also get the employee-rate discount on Dell products. Also, it looks like the natural science museum is hiring. Will be sending a resume later today. Yeah, it's retail, but it's something at least, and I think I'd have fun learning about the various exhibits. So, keeping fingers crossed. I really need employment, and I'd prefer employment that has certain benefits, like fascinating learning experiences. Yes, I am a geek. I think anyone who thought otherwise hasn't been paying attention... LOL
In other news, my hair is down to my waist. I'm trying to decide whether or not to cut it-- I've always got it twisted up in a clip because it's so hot these days. I love the idea of it being that long, but it's a pain to keep up with. I'm considering a shorter, tousled look, shoulder length or shorter. And a touchup of color-- the red's starting to fade. Though I'd probably do that part myself.
All right, I'm about to run some errands and do lunch with family for Father's Day. Ta!
