don't hold your breath

now you know, if you've been sort of paying attention, that after diving into the job market around here and swimming around a while, i decided to take an extended vacation cuz i haven't had a summer off in more than a decade and i haven't had an actual week off vacation in just as long, which makes this next bit quite coincidental or even an interesting tease from the universe if we choose to believe in some cosmic plan or power... just what could this mean, you might ask... well, just after my tongue-in-cheek facenook post announcing that i decided to take the afternoon off (because all my facebook fans, or friends, just had to know), i get a call for a job interview...

so tomorrow i will actually put on clothes and try to get into some sort of work-mode in my brain and sell myself as well as i can (can't you tell my heart is so really not into this?... oh stop laughing... yeah, so one of the resumes i sent to industry insiders in town... actually, the primary competitor to my previous place appears to have an opening and the boss there called to ask me to come in tomorrow to talk about the risk management department there (apparently they've been reorganizing recently)... so i'm not counting chickens and not holding my breath (you neither), but this may be the start of the end of the great extended vacation of 2012 cuz even if i don't get/take tomorrow's position, i suppose it is time to get back to taking the job search seriously again (what?... who said that?)... jackson is breathing a big sigh of relief...

otherwise, it's been a dull day relaxing vegetating well... did the dishes... took a longish walk with happiness and curled up with him on the couch a bit... watched some bones... ate soup and cheese-shrimp pita for lunch... did i mention that i still want you to visit this entry and give links in it more attention?... i have no clear definitive reason, just this feeling i get when i look to the west, or something like that...

hope you enjoyed something too, gotta have hope :)

Catch up (and know more)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
