elvendolli should be ready for all the swings, right?
*sigh*
the morning started off okay, though i seriously wish the interview had gone better.
my biggest problem with it is that i stumbled over words and my accent came out.
the first, for a phone support position... pretty damn bad... even if i dis have the swing factor that i had no clue the call was coming.
the latter is just my own sign that i wasn't in control... i don't care how many people like my accent, to me its still a sign of weakness, and its degrees come and go as such.
the lousy part is is that it gets worse in the winter because its cold, and cold stiffens my jaw muscles, which the accent is the lack of control of anyways.
but hey - at least the ball was rolling, right?
sent my resume to like 5 other places... and then hit a rut.
hitting 'send and recieve' like every 3 minutes; feeling worse and worse every time there was no new mail..
i even had ice cream as a pseudo-meal!
then, as i'm finishing up my ice cream, bill calls... offers to watch virgin suicides with me tonight...
i melted. this is the first time in ages he's initiated us spending time together and its been somewhat of an irritant.... and damnit, i just have a shiteating grin just thinking about it! : )
and as for the movie, i wouldn't have been too intrigued by it, but i've had to read the book for a class, really didn't like it while still being able to appreciate its place on the reading list, and have since been curious to see just what hollywod did with it...
then i call c. and finally get through... i hate leaving voicemail, so this must've been like the 3rd or 4th time i called, but he hadn't answered my last 2 emails so i was wanting to know whats up (and, of course unlike what that horrid voice in my head tells me, he had just been busy). and while on the phone with him, this recruiter guy whose email addy i had wrong called back.
so i have an interview tomorrow for 10am, which makes me feel a lot better.
the only downside that while writing this i got email from him letting me know he likes my resume, but that clients prefer a more standardized format, sending me 2 examples.
i was just rather amused that the resumes he sent m were of people that used to work at stream, where conor worked back in the day...
but, that means that i'll have to reformat my resume tonight, while printing out both versions for tomorrow.
but thats later, i'm in my late-afternoon sleepy-slump... i think its actually caused by my pill cycles, because i do have a longer gap now...
but yeah, so far its just another roller coaster day, making its way though.
