Murphy's Law?

So why is it just when I commit myself to working at a job, the job I had been hoping for starts calling? Better yet, why do they have to call me when I'm sitting in a room with my boss? Awkward! It was so obvious that the phone call was for a job.

Turns out the dream job was only hiring for casual employees and didn't like my availability. No interview. Had my boss not been in the room, I might have tried to argue that I could easily work both jobs. They don't know what kind of workaholic I am. When I got off the phone, I fessed up to having put my resume in a year ago and it was my dream job at the time. I didn't want her to think that I'm actively looking for work (2 weeks into the job). I do plan on re-submitting my resume in a couple weeks. I don't want them to forget about me when they have full-time positions, it's a better paying gig. Guess I'm starting to look pretty good on paper...


What else? Well, this week I have said adieu to the bus (for a while). I'm driving in my new (to me) car. I have to admit I don't like driving in rush hour traffic. Not because of the slow moving traffic, but because there is so much happening. It's so much easier to drive around on empty streets! I also suck really bad at parking. Parallel? Tight spot? Forget it. I did manage to get into my work parking spot on the first try two days in a row! This is an amazing feat considering it's a cramped lot with angle parking that I have to back into. Sooner or later I'll get used to it, right? Sometimes, I'd rather take the bus though.

One of these days I'll upload pictures, stay tuned.
