So I just hit submit on a job application and I need all the good vibes and ju-ju y’all have heading this way! I’ve been working at a company for a hair over two years as a temporary employee and finally in this god forsaken economy a job opening of my caliber (ha ha) for the company I work for has finally appeared on the boards!

The position is in another department but if I could just get in I could care less where in the place I work because when the cards are on the table — it’s a great freakin’ place to work! Most people hate their jobs/companies/bosses/whatever but I’m that rare breed that loves what I do and who I work for. The place treats it’s employees like royalty and is damn good to it’s temp workers like me. I know at the end of the day no matter how stressed I am or frustrated with issues I still have a job that lots of people would kill for in this day and age so I thank God every. single. day.

If I don’t get it that really isn’t a huge deal, don’t get me wrong I’m hungry as hell for what’s being offered but I know that I’m great where I’m at too. But send on the good luck vibes dudes!

In other news, I finally got the letter from the Rodeo Parade Committee for our first meeting…and am STOKED! I volunteer as a grand-stand Marshall for our local Rodeo Parade and it’s a blast. I can hardly wait for the meeting…but they scheduled the damn thing on Valentine’s day…wft?

This weekend is going to be great, Saturday the new boyfriend and I have a BBQ to go to. And Sunday night we are going to see Heart in concert (the tickets were my xmas gift to the new boyfriend)!

C’mon everyone sing “You’d have me down on my knees Wouldn’t you, Barracuda?”

Ok….got that out of our system *chuckle* All in all things are going good…I have zero complaints about life right now in spite of the everyday problems :) Life is good!

Doing it Anyway

I’m still sick and this post may very well be the result of the river o’ drugs running through my veins so bear with me. kthx

Anyway, yesterday I had set up a few job interviews with some places that seemed promising although a bit out of my league. The first place I arrived at surprised me with a massive timed accounting test right off the bat (oh goody)…a good majority of the test was about areas of accounting that I simply know nothing about. I’m specialized in what I do. To say I panicked is an understatement. I sat in the lobby staring down at a timed test losing my mind in the inside.
