HEY! HEY YOU! UNIVERSE! Are You LISTENING?

So, I haven't written since I went to the interview and I am here to tell you that it went GREAT. The problem I see is that I think I was the first or second to interview. I REALLY want this job. I really liked CEO. She is a woman and I am a little standoffish about working for a female because I'm so dominant that it causes a rub sometimes. But she was great and I felt really comfortable with her.

The office was a little strange. At first I thought they just moved in. It's an open concept and split up with large open conference areas and a raw cement floor. I have since learned that is a new design called stressed concrete.. lol.. and that's what it is... old concrete. I met several people and they all seemed nice but who ever knows what the team is going to pan out to be once you really start working with them.

She kept looking at things on my resume and saying that she liked this or that or that she liked that I can write etc etc. It was so strange cuz I didn't want to leave. I kept hoping she would go longer. It's right across the street from Madison Square park and the room they use for their events have these old Pre War arched windows them that are gorgeous. I'd love to put together an event in there. After I left, I just went out and sat in the park for a little while enjoying the day then walked over to the N &R subway which connected Me to Penn Station and the Long Island RR and jetted home. The train ride home from the city is longer now but not much, about 10 minutes but that's ok, just more reading.

The commute is much the same as the one I had from my other job. A cab in the morning and a the walk in the afternoon. The salary was back to normal so we could come off of our bread and water diet we have been on. I'm exaggerating of course but we are used to having expendable income and this stint of no money has been an eye opener.

We have been eating better though because I'm cooking instead of ordering out every night. That has been fun because our new apartment has a breakfast bar in the kitchen and Charles sits there and chats with me while I cook dinner. We have a glass of wine and share our respective days.

Last night I missed a meet up with the author of the Black Door, the one that calls themselves Velvet and wears a purple bag over their head for interviews. I'm really sorry about that but I've had a lot going on.

It's hard to keep coming up with reasons to leave so I can go on an interview. You know everyone says, "OH DO NOT quit your job, It's so much easier to find a job while you HAVE a job but that is bullshit. You have to lie. I don't lie, it's really hard for me. I don't like doing that but I HAVE to get a new job. In addition to not taking taxes out of my check which I'm probably going to go to jail for, he's an ass and I cant stand him. I can only go so long before My wonderful personality kicks in and I tell him to go fuck himself and walk out. I'm desperately trying to find another job before that happens.

So, if the Universe is listening...... I REALLY WANT THAT JOB, PLEASE LET ME HAVE IT!

he he.... think they heard that?
