That interview last wednesday?

I got the job.

Wow. So didn't expect that to happen at 9:00 this morning.

In between hacking up a lung every few minutes, I'm trying to wrap my brain around the idea that I will be fully employed (with benefits and all) by the end of the month. I will keep working where I am for the next three weeks then start that one on the 30. Very cool, really.

Anyhow...

Thanks for listening to me whine last week. Your sympathy was greatly appreciated and I thought I should let you know it was no longer necessary.

So YAY!

Thoughts on the Day (4/6 - 4/9)

Catching up. Believe it or not.

Friday, April 6th was:
Drowsy Driver Awareness Day
I think that this is a bit of a misnomer. After all, being drowsy almost insures that the driver won’t be aware. I think it should be “Drowsy Drivers Stay off the Road Day”. That would be better, don’t you think?

Tartan Day
A day that honors the Scottish and all they have contributed to the US. They have a whole Tartan Week in New York that ends in a parade on the 13th. Do you think curling is featured? Nope. But there are a lot of “pipe bands” listed as well as a link to How to wear a kilt.

Teflon Day
Why does Teflon need a day? I think it’s just free advertising, really.

World Marbles Day
Cancelled. Because from the looks of it, most of the world has lost its marbles.

National Walk to Work Day
Which, since my new job is only two blocks away, is something I plan on doing every day.
