Thankfully, it's over. I've recently finished my army training, the distance education course that had quizzes that related to none of the information presented in the lessons. I got a 75% on the last exam, and I don't care. I have earned a 86% overall, it's done. If I get promoted, there'll be another distance education portion that will feature lots of math--joy.

Now that...

What a hell of a week: started training last Tuesday for the new job and then had to get a tooth extracted Thursday morning before I left for drill weekend... Ick, Four and a half hours driving to B'ham with little sleep and on pain meds, it was fun.

Saw a dear friend on Friday, and just like every time I do, I wish I...

Well, I landed the digital gig and soon will be trained to handle videos and apps! I hope that the training doesn't fully break me. I'm looking forward to training and learning this new job at the 'Zon; I also get to roll back to my wireless support position if I don't make any headway in other positions.

I didn't manage to define the leader...

Thankfully, they're over... I had my interviews today, both within a half-hour of each other. I feel that I did well on both, but better on the digital position versus the leadership one--hard to tell overall, as I just get nervous and start making things up that sound good.

I'm a little jealous of one of my colleges at work getting a phone interview for...

It's the end of an Amazon week and I hope I get to announce some changes for my job there--I applied for a leadership role, and love to think I'll get it, but I am always junk at interviewing. If that role doesn't pan out, I hope to be interviewed for the appstore. I don't own an Android device, but I'll see what I can...

My daughter came to town for her school break, and I had a blast... even if we didn't do a lot... I will say I don't miss sleeping on the ground in a tent. We "camped" in the backyard, it was colder than I hoped, but I put the extra military gear lying around to good use. She got the thick sleeping bag and I...

Got to love having to count fully on computers, especially when your applications get electronically round filed because of the computer you use... Which happened to me and all the fun jobs I applied for. grrr. But, the good news is that now that I'm aware of the electronic banditry, I seem a more active candidate for the jobs I apply for here on. Must...

Still waiting on hearing from the jobs at the 'Zon... I applied for so many, I hoped to hear something back by now. Grr..

I went to see Sucker Punch today, and while I wasn't wowed like I was at the end of 300, I did like it. I feel that Zack Snyder has an very excellent film--both graphically and musically. I loved the...

It'll be a few weeks until my daughter flies into Seattle. I'm happy that I get to see her during her spring break, but I really don't have any plans since I do have to work during that time too.

We might just set up a tent in the yard to "go camping" like she wants, probably see a movie. Might also re-watch Doctor Who...
