My second interview at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital is on Thursday morning. I’m feeling very anxious right now. I almost wish it were Wednesday evening instead of Monday afternoon. I’m trying to prepare as much as I can, but I get really nervous during interviews. Which is funny… because I’ve done a lot of phone recruiting as well as some face to face interviews. As much as I know about the process, it still scares me to death. But I know that all I can do is prepare myself and go in with confidence. The rest I can’t control. And if they don’t choose me, then it just means there is something better out there waiting on me. Wish me luck!     :)

 

horse racing, drag queens, and ice capades December 15, 2007

Some random thoughts and events from the last couple of days…

  • I absolutely ADORE my friends. They are the best.
  • I won $4 at Turfway Park last night. Not bad considering I only bet $1.
  • I bet on horses based on their name.
  • $1 beers are good, even if it’s crappy beer.
  • Margaritas, particularly good ones, are the bomb.
  • The Office and 30 Rock are absolutely hilarious. If you don’t watch them, you should start.
  • I gave dollar tips to drag queens doing a charity show at a “country/western” gay bar. A country/western gay bar is a difficult concept to comprehend, unless you’re actually there. There was a big poster of Reba McIntire holding a bag of Fritos. That was pretty funny. But it would’ve been even funnier if she was eating them.
  • Some of the drag queens had nicer legs than me. There’s something just not fair about that.
  • I drove to work on a Saturday in 3″ of snow and freezing rain. When I was about halfway here, I decided that I might be retarded for doing so. But I was already halfway and I could use the extra cash. I got to work and there was an equally retarded co-worker here as well. He told me he did a “180″ on his way here. I’m thinking he is way more retarded than I am.
  • Pumpkin donuts are yummy…especially when paired with a caramel latte.
  • I like snow, but freezing rain and ice are not my friends.
  • I still haven’t finished my Christmas shopping. I really need to get crack-a-lackin on that.
  • The copier at work sounds like a helicopter. I’m convinced that one day it’s going take off and fly far, far away to “copier heaven.”
  • I wish I could sleep past 9am.
