I was thinking that the scale was glitching again. But it gave a consistent number over the several times I stepped on it. I didn't do much before work again today. I've just been having a hard time gauging the passage of time. I was sitting here at the computer playing with the spending spreadsheet and weigh in spreadsheets thinking, “oh, it's coming up on 10:30 I should probably get ready for work. OH CRAP IT'S 10:30 I NEED TO GET READY FOR WORK!” The rent check still hasn't gone through. But at least it's now in a time that I have the funds for it to go through. I only worked a hal...

I feel that the phone interview went alright this morning. But I am REALLY not comfortable talking about myself in a promotional manner

Interviewer: What's your strengths
Me: Durrr
Interviewer: What's some of your weaknesses
Me: Duhhhh

I feel that these are reasonable and regular questions. But when I'm trying to describe myself I just go immediately into. “Me is am no talking goods”

I was so focused on the phone interview this morning that I almost forgot to do the blog post. The call only took about 20 minutes but I was just sitting here processing all of the “should have said” and “could have said” thoughts when I was starting to get hungry. I debated for a bit whether or not to finish off the bacon I had in the fridge or wait until lunch to eat. But my stomach started growling, so that settled that debate. It kinda sucks to use up the last of the bacon. I'm going to have to try to remember to pick some up on the way home after work. (spoiler alert for tomorrow -_-: I didn't) Overcooked the bacon again. You'd think I'd have the hang of it by now. But I guess that's what I get for cooking while distracted.

Work was typical BS but again everyone showed up. So I'm a bit nervous for the next few days. Two days in a row where everyone showed up for work? Is this a good sign? Or is this just a calm before another storm.

When I was at work I received the email that the lady on the interview call this morning said that I would receive that would lead to a website that would test my computer skills. This morning I said that I would visit that site right after I got off of work. But there was a link to a “Test Site” and I felt that it would be unwise to go straight to the real site before checking out the test site. And holy Moses, the “Test Site” belonged in a museum! It was referencing NETSCAPE for goodness sake. It had questions about HTML 3.2 I have absolutely ZERO programming experience. But Google is saying that the latest HTML code is 5!

For dinner I had what I call Queso Soup. I browned a pound of ground beef and added a can of Rotel with a 16oz pack of Velveeta “Mexican” “”Cheese”” And I'll admit that I slipped on the Beer front. I picked up some on the way out of the store. I knew that I was going to be dealing with the “practice” version of the computer evaluation for the new job I was applying for and I felt that I wanted to be very relaxed when I tried out that “practice site” but now that I'm looking over the email that she sent to me I'm not going to have to go over the ENTIRE site, I'll just be using the Excel, Word, Basic typing skills, and data entry. Of those skills I am VERY confident in. The “test site” had me going over programming language, and Financial advisory. And let's just say, I feel that am the VERY last person that ANYONE should talk to about financial advice.
I'll have to try to wake up early enough tomorrow morning to try to get those evaluations done. I just hope I don't have too much of a hangover to remember to do the things I have to do to get out of this damn grocery store job.
