So I quit my job this morning. And, no, I haven’t heard back from the new place yet. I just walked in and got buried in admin/operations work that was definately not part of the job description that they’d handed me way back when and thought, “I’m not going to be happy here. Better to [...]
Okay, it’s late and I’m tired, so you’re getting a list with pictures…
1. Went book shopping on Saturday. Picked up several good reads at the many fun bookstores along Valencia. New Mercedes Lackey!!!! I am in love with Borderlands Books, in part because it’s a store run by a gay couple (and a hairless cat) [...]
Didn’t throw up last night. Wanted to, but it wasn’t in the cards. Should have drank more.
It was fun. The Edge was really packed on Friday nights and it took a while to find the guys from the team, but we met up eventually. A little later we headed over to the 440 on Castro. [...]
I can’t believe I’m actually about to say this…
So, I’m heading out to meet some guys from the team at the bar.
Now why do I suddenly feel like a stock character in some fat-guy-skinny-wife sitcom?
Of course, the difference is that (almost) everyone on my amatuer hockey team is a big burly homo and we’ll be [...]
He’s back! My second-favorite gun-toting Utah asshole with racist friends (second only to a-i-l, of course) has decided to pay me a visit for old times’ sake.
So I just came from interview number 4…
I’m 83% certain (like how I gave it an interesting and unverifiable number?) that they’re going to offer me the job later today or tomorrow. Here’s the problem, they either need a full-time person starting on Monday, or a part-time freelancer who can edit their big summit catalog [...]
Oh the pain! I just came from my first night with the amateur hockey team I want to join. An hour and a half of ice skating does not feel good on these muscles that haven’t performed those exact motions in 12 years. Still, I know that 6 months ago, I couldn’t have done it. [...]
I’ve got another interview tomorrow with Out & Equal. I’m starting to feel guilty about sneaking off to interview with another company during my lunch breaks. On the other hand, it’s good that they keep bringing me back, right? I mean, this is interview #4 if you include the phone interview. Normally, 4 interviews would [...]
The Interview
So, the interview was intersting. I guess they hired a guy as Communications Manager a few months ago and got burned when he didn’t turn out to be the match they were hoping for. However, with a huge annual summit in just a few weeks, they really need someone to come in and help [...]
For better or worse, I just reported yesterday’s incident with a-i-l to the local Child Protective Services. The detective who spoke with me was very honest and admitted that this case is borderline… that suspecting abuse is possible might not be enough to open the case, but that I absolutely did the right thing. Now [...]
