A new job... blessing or curse?
10/24/2003 07:15 a.m.
I'm sure your wondering 'Why's he wearing a tie?!?'

Well I got a call wed. for this job I'd been lusting after for the last couple of months.. got hired on the spot at the interview.. might be cuz I was the only one wearing a dress shirt and tie for the interview.. I dunno..
I slept too.. which is unusal for me. Usually I'm wired the night before an interview.. espically one so important to me.
I had a nightmare tho.. really strange.. It was about me having a corporate job.. which for me, is a nightmare in itself... It was for McDonalds.. They had built this new building.. a really nice one at that.. with a spiral staircase running up the middle of the building.. So I walk up to the guy who had just hired me in the middle of the interior construction.. So I'm looking around and he's rattling on about how the building is smaller than they planned.. To me it looks huge.. people all around working.. Putting cubicles together, installing mainframes.. and then something strikes me.. He tells me he has to let me go.. without me even working a day... I'm kinda hurt, honestly.. It's been quite a few years since I've been fired..So I'm on the way of walking out.. when they are having a meeting in the hallway about the fries.. I walk up, and they are devouring the fries like a pack of wolves... I walk up, grab a handfull and stuff them into my mouth.. One of them yells, He doesnt work here! Spy!!!
I retort, the fries suck! They procede to chase me down the spiral ramp... I hop the rail to get a lead... as I jump the rail, I wake up.. still insulted about getting fired.

So I woke up early today..around 6am.. waited a little while and went and got breakfast.. then headed to my local TJMax and bought me a nice shirt.. Spent most of the morning getting ready for the interview at 12:30pm.. even tho I had taken a shower before bed, I took another one since my hair had its own agenda at that point.. Right before the interview I snapped a pic with my webcam, so I could show you the rare moment of me wearing a tie...

I came home, Psyched that I got the job.. then I went and talked to my Neighbor, Eleni.. a greek woman, who is becomming more and more a friend of mine.. very personable.. I explained the dream I had to her and she proceded to tell me that it was a reversal dream, since I was getting hired the next day... I agree with her in aspects, but I tend not to try and think of dreams like that.. since most of the times, my dreams have nothing to do with what's going on in my life. She's proabbly right tho.. I guess in place of being wired and worried, my mind let me get some sleep, but decided to switch up it's form of torment on me. Nice to have a change.. at least then I didn't look too tired for the interview.

Speaking of sleep.. I've been acaully on a somewhat regular schedule.. which is shocking for me.. It hasn't been since highschool that I've acaully woken up this early and been to bed this early.. heck, the only reason I'm up now is because I took a nap from around 8pm till 2am.. and acaully, I'm proabbly going to head back to bed.. I'm yawning my face off..

I am currently Happy
I am listening to Friends of P.- The Rentals
