Things I noticed.
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.
Horoscope
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.
Crossroads
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.
I’m body-and-soul in love with her.

Quizzes
MOON
“the chooser, the romantic”
You are gifted in turning difficult situations into
positive events. You are a romantic you doesnt
wish to be decieved or deluded by others– you
have little tolerance for self-deception or
-illusion. You are often placed in a position
where you must make a choice between two very
different things (this is represented by all
the different pairs depicted on the card). You
are a tester of old patterns– the honey-moon
is over and now it’s time to deal with the
reality that has set in. You have a deep love
for harmony and wish to regain it. The jackels
in the card represent your inability to
tolerate delusion, illusion, and deception in
yourself or in others. You are gifted in
spotting lies.

Horoscope
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Visualize your greatest fear. How much of it is based on a possibility that the dreaded experience could actually happen? What part of your foreboding, on the other hand, is fueled by your active imagination, your habitual propensity to worry, and the pervasive angst the media has infected you with? Once you’ve meditated on those questions, Taurus, try these prescriptions: In the next 24 hours, take one step to reduce the level of anxiety you’ve accepted as normal. Take another step to diminish the power of your greatest fear. The astrological omens say you’ll receive unexpected help if you do these things.
PH33R MY TYP1NG SK1LLZ0RZ0RZ0RZ!! ZIGGURAT!!
92 WPM, according to the typing test at Personnel World, yet another temp agency that is looking for a job for me. Aced their Microsoft Word test. The secretary there, who has been in Religious Studies classes of mine, said that I might as well take her job with scores like that.
I’m calling in tomorrow and adding temp jobs to my search parameters, as well as secretarial positions. Maybe my anal retentiveness will come in handy while I’m waiting for Comcast and Ingham County to make up their f’ing minds, call me, and offer me geek jobs, damnit. :)
It’s too muggy in here. I’m going to turn on the air conditioning, then celebrate the breaking through of the writer’s block, thanks to
