Job bob schob.
So today I had four interviews for jobs. Don't get excited folks -- none of them are in my field. The first is a part timer that I'll take. I'll basically be working for Mike's advisor doing public relations for a scientific research program at the University of Tennessee. It pays well and the hours are flexible so I say, why not? I don't really feel as if I can say no because Mike's advisor is making the position for me and it seems to be a pretty good deal. The second interview was a second interview at the Gap. They offered me a job and I said that it would take me a few days to decide. I don't think I'll take that one. I had an interview at Banana and another at J.Crew. I'm not sure about the one from Banana but the one from J.Crew went really well and might be for a part time manager position after a month. Plus, I must add that Megan having a discount at J.Crew would be both beautiful and dangerous. I've managed not to buy much clothing in the past year, but I feel that being around it all the time (especially J.Crew) might re-incite the addiction I seemed to have in my college years. Then again, we haven't got much storage space here so how much clothing could I really buy? Also...the difficult thing with retail is that you really can't take the holidays off. Now, if I were to work at the Gap I would just quit sometime in November and December, but the J. Crew thing is much tougher. I want to work there more and I couldn't quit if I were to make manager -- then again, I would get more mula at the Crew. You see how tough it is for me?
On the other side of things I could forget about working at the mall and just hope to find a second part time job at the University (it would probably be something much less interesting than the public relations thing at minimum wage). No discount there though.
Alrightie tightie whitie. You've heard my plea for help on job decisions. Send your advice if you have any. I feel nature calling.

Married Megan.
I just finished reading Lisa's blog and the statement "I hope it never gets hot again" was like a million arrows striking my heart. Ah, how I miss the cool northeast. At this point, I feel that I could not make such a statement like "I hope it never gets hot again" because, sadly, I know it won't get below 80 until October. Ah, the sadness that goes along with the South. On the good side, there are tons of jobs for me here that pay really well, are challenging and allow me to access all my talents. OK, sadly, that statement is a load of bullshit too. On the good side, I am applying for International Advisor at the University of Tennessee and I'm also trying to get a job doing some sort of administrative work for a scientific research program at the University. I feel that having a job at the University would have many advantages including perhaps cheaper tuition, closer location, and key holidays off work. So cross your fingers blog-readers.
I have also applied to such wonderful places as Williams Sonoma, The Gap, Banana Republic and J. Crew in the hopes that working there might provide me with more pleasure than temping in Tennessee. May I remind everyone out there that the last time I was temping I worked at PlastiLine, the company that makes those signs you see for McDonald's, Burger King, CVS, GM etc. etc. etc. I discovered that plastic light up signmaking was not a business that I wanted to get into. Now, I am not attempting to offend those who enjoy working for that company. I'm just stating that it ain't for me.
On the good side, I'm married. I feel I had the wedding of my dreams and I feel I've married the man of my dreams. The latter, of course, is the more important, but both are great things to think back on fondly. Our honeymoon was also amazing. I highly recommend both Ashford and Drummoland Castles as honeymoon places. As we were both tired from the jetlag and after the wedding madness, we were able to spend time at the hotel and on the grounds without feeling that we were missing something. After a couple days of rest, we travelled around the countryside of the West and managed to make it to many beautiful Irish sites. Ah, how I miss it.
At any rate, I think I will go back to writing thank you notes and cover letters.
