Job Update

Today I had an interview. It did not go well. When they ask "how much do you know about . . ." and you have to say, "Nothing" more than twice, there are serious problems. It would be a miracle if they call me back.
But on to the good news. I talked to two teachers tonight. They both told me that pretty much the school district will not be hiring until October, when the schools know what their numbers are going to be like. The first one told me she was sure I would get a job when all those jobs come around and the second said there might be an opening at her school. So fingers crossed! And pray I can make it financially until October.
At least there is hope. That's all I'm saying. Because I was starting to get really discouraged. But I think I'm going to make it. Ok, I know I will.

Horoscope

The new concerns you have about your career aren't going away any time soon, so you have to deal with them like the intelligent person you are. It's time to have a conversation with someone you trust -- and it doesn't have to be someone who is intimately involved with what you do on a daily basis. You just need a sounding board -- someone you know will tell you the truth, no matter how ugly it may be. Avoid talking to anyone who is too close to your situation. They might hold back on you.

MacDo's

I had a job interview down in San Diego yesterday, and there is not enough food here to pack a lunch, so I looked for a place to eat when I arrived. Being so close to the border, I couldn't find a Taco Bell, but I finally found a MacDonald's. I ordered a meal and ate the french fries first (being if you wait until they are cold, they are gross). Then I ate the sandwich. And remembered why I do NOT eat at MacDonald's. It was gross and tasteless. Yuck. And so much grease its likely to turn your stomach.
Fast food is just not my thing.

Tag

I got tagged, so this is what I am doing instead of job searching. This will be interesting because I'm not in my own house, I am staying with my uncle. Bear with me.

The rules are you have to take 10 pictures of the following things and you have to do it right away. No straightening, cleaning or wiping your child's nose. Then you tag five others.

The closet
Or at least what serves as mine at the moment

The laundry room


The Fridge
Or at least what I bought and put in there.

The kitchen sink


Favorite room.
I'm just going to have to leave this one blank as I don't have one yet. Maybe the hot tub . . .

What the kids are doing right now
As there are no kids here (and I left my borrowed ones in Utah) I took a page from Jordan's book.

Toilet


Favorite Shoes


Self portrait
The best I could get without actually caring too much

Dream Vacation
Marseilles. Enough said.

I tag EmRob, Liz, Chelsey and Mauri. Go girls!! And Ian, if he still reads this (and anyone else who feels like it)

California traffic

I went to a job interview today. I was driving back (an hour and a quarter trip), congratulating myself because the other side of the freeway was packed, when my side started slowing down. We stopped, and were inching forward. I watched two fire trucks, an ambulance, a police car and several other emergency vehicles pass. I also watched some smoke float through the air. At first I thought maybe the brush had caught fire. We ended up going down to one lane. One lane from FIVE. Crazy. It was not a fire. There were at least two, I think there were three, cars that got SMASHED, and I do mean smashed. Anyway, I made it home safe and I have another job interview tonight.
I would really like a real teaching job. That's what I really want. Why are they never the ones that call me?
