I had a headache. I’ve been having a problem with one of my contact lenses recently.. I’m pretty sure it’s scratched or something. I’m going to have to check it out more thoroughly tomorrow morning, just to make sure. I’m pretty sure that I’ve only got one contact left for each eye, and I can’t waste them.
I don’t even like beer. But I’ll be damned if the candle shaped like a pint of draught Guinness wasn’t the perfect Ireland gift from
Now I move forward with plans.
I have read about 4 trade paperbacks of Sandman… the last four, actually.
What a surreal day.
Filling up the gas tank while it’s at a quarter-tank instead of riding on empty feels really good. Like I’ve just removed hours and hours of worry from my life.
Ex-girlfriends seem to e-mail me when my life is at a changing point.
Adding some Presidents of the United States and Primus to my mp3 directory has completely changed the attitude of my overall playlist.
I feel like I’m at a snapping point. I know, more than likely, that I’ll be offered the Comcast position. It’s just the waiting… the inability to move on that with the actions that will take me to the Ann Arbor area. I have the option of starting little preperations now, but I don’t want to jump the gun. Any ideas?

One of the two tech support supervisors/managers that interviewed me was the one who interviewed me during the job fair. He’s the one that passed me on for the second stage.
He also said, on my way out the building, “Don’t worry, man. You seem pretty solid.” As far as I can tell, the percentage chance of being hired has risen. Excellent.
There is a branch of my bank right outside the industrial park. There is a decently-priced Citgo right outside the industrial park. There are semi-tolerable fast food chains, as well as several grill-type restaurants, right outside the industrial park.
I had a small revelation about housing, as well. Much to think on.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “The world is composed of rival gangs of hypnotists, each competing for your entranced attention.” I found this scrawled on the wall of a public restroom. It’s not literally true, of course, but it might as well be. Every day you’re besieged by advertisers, entertainers, politicians, and news media that would love you to adopt their views. To resist their brainwashing, you have to exert heroic efforts to think for yourself. In the coming weeks, your vigilance must be even more rigorous than usual. Here are some tips: Be the opposite of a know-it-all. Make curiosity and open-mindedness your highest values. Read and listen to people who don’t believe what you do. Consider the possibility that your opinions may be wrong or incomplete.
Tomorrow at 2PM, I have a second interview with Comcast for a tech support position.
I actually find myself wanting to ask for Good Thoughts(tm), prayers, whatever… I’m going to have to do some of that myself tonight, I think. Rituals for practicality instead of symbolism? Never been my strongest suit, but that could easily be the point.
