yay! no more temping for me! i've gotten an admin assistant position with them. also, i'm waitressing with them. i am going to be overworked for awhile, but i feel a lot better.

the interview felt like it went well. but i'll have to wait and see. it's for the job i'm currently temping in, which seems hopeful, since being there is half the battle. but it will be really lame if i don't get it and have to train whoever does. i will speak more if i get it.
in much the same way i'm ignoring the grad school thing until i get acceptance or rejection letters.
the south is awesome. it was 76 degrees out today, even if it was raining.

i had a good weekend. 3 days long (last temp place ended early). friday spent time with people i've met on my own--which doesn't sound like much but for me, it really is. i don't treat this like my life often enough. combine worrying about money with a limited friend range and i all too often stay home and read rather than go out. sometimes that's nice, but it's probably not the best for me. but i got lunch with jj and saw the life aquatic and hit franklin street with marla and people she knew. i spent the rest of the weekend swinging between lazy and accomplishing things, so i'll assess it as time well spent.
i started a new temp job today. it's a company i've temped for before, though a different location. nice people, good intentions, work doesn't seem too terrible. filling in while they find someone to fill the position. i'm not sure what the policy would be in me applying for the position myself, but i think they've already set up interviews. i think i'll give the supervisor my resume tomorrow anyway. doesn't hurt.
and the requisite: new years resolution, if there is one, is that i need to get my finances in order. need to find a real job. this temp thing is no fun anymore. just wrecking my hands doing things i have no investment in and getting to know people just in time to leave. and mostly, spend more time being happy and less time worrying.
the 10 days with family and friends over the holidays was really good for me. i'm not sure i'll be back in madison again until june, which makes me sad. but we'll see...if my search for waitressing work goes well and i can manage to stick with it, maybe i'll be able to find a way. wish me luck on that.

at risk of being melodramatic, i give up.
