Hey guys...

I just came from a fantastic interview. It went really, really well!

If you could send some force vibes this way (or prayers or meditations) that would be great!

I am really looking forward to meeting my New Year's Resolution of finding permanent, full time employment by my birthday (just way ahead of schedule)!

Good thoughts, good thoughts!!!


happy

I hope you get this too, K!

BTW, they've splashed on the MySpace front page that the Family Guy "Blue Harvest" episode (the Star Wars parody) is either out on DVD or is about to come out on DVD.

Family Guy: Blue Harvest came out yesterday. There are 2 versions. A bare-bones one for around $12.99 and a deluxe version for around $24.99 that includes a T-shirt, trading cards and some other goodies.

Thanks, Chris!

My mom just found out that she is getting laid off in 2 weeks and I hope she can find something soon too.

That's a real bummer. I know how hard it was for a 'thirtysomething' to find work... I've been on the hunt for about 16 months now... I can't imagine a 'seasoned' professional trying to search for work. However, now is the best time to be looking... businesses have just renewed their hiring budgets thus making it a little easier to get hired.

Best of luck to your Mom.

Thanks Korey.

I helped update her resume on Saturday and she is going to send it out to a bunch of offices in the building she works.

On top of things my income is getting reduced because they are cutting over time.

But a few shifts have become available here and there. Hopefully I will get back on a regular OT shift again soon.

One resolution down and one to go!

I got a contingent offer from Staples... as long as everything goes ok with the background check, I will be starting in their Westborough office on February 4th!

I am so very excited!

You should be fine. I'm in the HQ over in Framingham and I can't wait to get the heck out of here.

There's no in between there, is there?

You hate it... and another friend I have there loves it!

LOL

I am just glad to have finally found a permanent job (after nearly 18 months of temping)!

Maybe you can request a transfer to Westborough, Wormie. laugh

Seriously, I wish you well with this if you take the offer, K, and I hope it turns out to be all you expected. grin

Congrats Korey happy




The water main going into my house broke and flooded some of my basement a few days before Christmas a few weeks back.

Well the landlord had to dig up some of the lawn and flower bed area with a back hoe.

I saw this golden glare coming from underneath one of the bushes on a sunny Saturday.

Well it happened to be a vintage Kenner C-3P0 figure.

The funny thing is my brother and I lived in this same house back in early to mid 80s so it is either his or my old C3P0.

We used to play in the dirt as kids do and he or I probably forgot him outside and he got buried somehow.

The rivet in the center of the back is well rusted from being buried for 23 years.

I took him in the house and welcomed the little guy back into my collection
