Hello, LiveJournal! I have missed you. I really must get on the ball with updating more often.
Here, have an entry in list form:
House
-We had an exterminator in yesterday to take care of the nasty spider problem we've been having. The house had been sitting empty for over a year when we moved in, and the spiders had taken over. We killed what we found at the time, but apparently they left babies behind. They were OOGLAY. And not small. Now they will all be dead, and our house smells like mint and rosemary!
-We're still working on getting things straightened up and whatnot. There's a lot of furniture we still need to buy, but that will have to wait until I get a permanent job, as will replacing the absolutely hideous flooring.
Job
-I'm still temping at Dannon. They're talking about extending my assignment again, which would be a good thing. I was kind of leery about this temping thing at first, but it's a hell of a lot better than sitting at home moping and collecting unemployment.
-Of course, I'm still looking for permanent work. I've had a couple of good interviews, but no job offers yet. I feel like something awesome is just around the corner. Fingers crossed!
-I had one REALLY WEIRD job interview. I went in, and there was no receptionist or phone in the lobby. So I waited until someone came along and asked me who I was looking for. He went and got the guy I was interviewing with, and he set me up at an empty desk to fill out their job application. As I was filling it out, I heard the guy I was going to interview with, whose office was directly behind me with the door open, call the man at the desk next to me and say, "DON'T scare her away!" Then, at the end of the interview he asked me if I could be a dog, what kind of dog I would be. SO WEIRD.
Life
-I had a really good birthday this year. Last year I was working for the crazy lady, and she made me absolutely miserable on my birthday. This year I kept it low-key, and just went out with the fams. I fully intend to have a nice big party at the house at some point in the future. Not quite ready for that yet, though.
-I have been working out, and now I have stamina, and I am getting upper body strength, AND THIS IS SO EXCITING!
I miss lots and lots of you. While we're not quite ready for a big shin-dig at our place, we do have plenty of crash space. Who wants to come visit?
