A Decent Day

So . . . today:

--I had a job interview!  It's for an office assistant position with a company that provides services to and runs group homes for developmentally disabled adults.  It was totally not what I was expecting--I expected to go into a very organized kinda upscale well put together feeling professional office, but it's much more laid back.  Like the dress code is jeans and tshirts kinda laid back.  Which is cool but it threw me a little.  And the job doesn't pay as much as I'd thought/hoped (my hourly wage there would be the same as at Hastings) but it's full time.  Like actually full time, 40 hours a week, so it's at least a little better.  Today's interview was only like 10 minutes long--basically the guy just went over the job details with me and asked if I had administrative experience (I was like, did you look at my resume at all? but whatev).  This particular company puts a lot of emphasis on references so that's the next step; they'll check my references and if after that they still like me or whatever, I'll have a second interview with the guy who did my interview's boss.  I should hear from them pretty quickly so . . . here's hoping, right?

--I bought a UV lamp and UV activated top coat for my nails.  I've wanted one for awhile now and they had a deal going at Sally's where if you bought the lamp (for $25) you got the top coat for free (normally $9).  And it was payday so I thought what the hell?  Because Jerbs and I have a nail polish addiction and between the two of us we have over 100 colors easily.  So my toenails always look awesome, but I'm too impatient to sit still and let nail polish dry on my fingers, and I compulsively pick at it when it's almost dry . . . so yeah.  I've tried fast drying polish, fast drying topcoats, doing one nail at a time . . . blah blah blah.  Nothing works, and I hate having all this polish that I don't get to use--especially since winter's coming and I won't be wearing flip flops anymore.  But with the UV lamp and topcoat the polish dries and hardens in like 5 minutes and it's awesome.  So I'm STOKED about that.

--It's getting cold here!  I walked to the gas station earlier and I could see my breath.  IT'S NOT EVEN SEPTEMBER YET.  I love it but wow.

--Jerbs and I have sort of adopted a cute little stray kitty.  We call him Little Boy Cat and we leave food and water for him on our porch.

That's about it.  I did have a few moments today where I just felt sad and missed Corey but that's all for another post.
