Picking and Choosing

Another job interview today, interesting to have been on my umpteenth interview in a lifetime. Everytime I enter the room, the first things I always wonder are: Is this person going to like me? Am I gonna wanna work here? Is this my existence worth being here 8 hrs. a day? Sometimes I think "I love you already but you don't even know me" or "Jesus, am I really going to try to get a job here." In a way interviewing is like dating. Do you like me? Do you want to be my friend? Want me to introduce you to my family? "If I like you, I will call you," they always say. Better yet, I will e-mail you if I like you and want another date but either way, I will let you know that either "I am into you" or "I just am not into you." Today, it was really hard to read my date (interviewer). I am not sure if I am going to go out on that "second" date or not. "It would be nice to see you again", I say, "call me if you want to introduce me to your family." Dating* Sucks. 

*Dating Aside- Obviously, I need a job. I have a real "family" to support after all. But if all else fails, I can write about my job interviews as I were going on dates. Maybe someday I will get married to a job.

Can Someone Tell Me that This is Real?

My friend posted this on her Facebook page, I thought it was hilarious. The little girl wrestler wears Kiss-inspired makeup and has a Kiss-inspired tongue signature move when she defeats her competitor. Love the 666 t-shirt (around the :50 sec mark). I am sure her parents are great role-models.

Going Minimalist

It is all about content they say, I sure hope so, I have been playing with my blog template and cannot find one I like. I know I have my ideal design, but right now it is all in my head. They say, don't procrastinate...just do it. So I am doing it with content. Spending more time writing less time designing IRL. I still design in my head. Baby steps.

Year in Review in 9 days

I have 9 days to write this post. It will be 2010 soon, every year I think that the next year will be better. I sure hope so. This year kinda sucked but I tried to make lots of lemonade. Yes, I am hoping 2010 will be better. Here are the pros and cons of 2010: Well start with cons first then pros (End off with a good note).

Cons:
- Lost my job
- Haven't replaced my job yet
- My mouth is like a sick puppy, needs caring for all the time (Gum issues)
- Less money for vacations, crap that ends up in my garage

Pros:
- Still have my health
- Spend more time with family
- Got Lola a new dog (probably wouldn't adopted her if I still had my job)
- Joined Toastmasters to conquer my public speaking fear
- Started conversing/engaging on Twitter, met some IRL friends out of this
- Learning loads in Social Media- Got to meets some good role models IRL
- Not as stressed from work
- The gym became my friend and not my enemy
- Did a tiny bit of travel- San Francisco, 3-day cruise to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Las Vegas, and took a mini-road trip going to San Jose on the 101.

Late Night Snuggie Post

I will admit, I love my Snuggie, I was skeptical at first (this was over a year ago) but as soon as I got mine, I was hooked. I got it as a gift from my mother-in-law. We received four burgundy Snuggies, one for each family member, but I am the only one in my family that uses their Snuggie (so I guess I technically own 4). I wear my Snuggie around the house, haven't ventured out in public (yet) like some have (guy on dance floor in Vegas). My husband doesn't appreciate it when I wear my Snuggie when snuggling with him, he finds it a bit disturbing when I come to bed draped in cheap, fleece material. I am not picky when it comes to warmth, I am ok wearing a oversized fleece mess.

I don't find the Snuggie to be the next peacoat, but it does work as a nice oversized robe. My dogs even chewed holes in one of my Snuggies and that seems to be my favorite one (the holy one). The material isn't the best, but it keeps me warm. I highly recommend this product even though there are better quality ones out there- Nuddle, Slanket, Brookstone NAP. I endorse Snuggies for people. I don't endorse Snuggies for Dogs, Blythe Dolls nor I endorse Snuggies for Trolls.
