Day 40 - Me Day

I am embarrassed to admit that allow myself too many "me" days. It seems like I have some luck with the interviews and then I feel it is OK to reward myself. Today, I did nothing... nothing.. in regards to my job search. I went back into my vacationing mode.

I worked out at the club and scoped out what every one's story was that was there. I mean it was a work day yet men, women, old and young were working out. The funny thing was that the local news was in the club interviewing people on their reaction to Tiger Woods new conference.

At first I did not notice them and went on my tread mill and started running. Then I saw many people trying to get noticed so that the newscaster would come over their way to be interviewed. I had an especially aggressive guy next to me who was trying to talk loud to get noticed. Now I am in a weird spot cause I am next to him and did not even see Tiger's conference. I mean - "who cares really?" Why does he have to do a press conference. He lived the high life and got caught - enough said. The only horrible crime against the public is that he branded himself as squeaky clean and companies purchased this image. He owes an apology to them for messing up their campaign.

Anyways back to the story - the reporter ignored my treadmill mate and he left to take a non urgent call (what a tool. I hate when people come to the club just to be seen - pet peeve.

So I am watching the news and what do I see - the back of my head and shoulders running on the treadmill watching their news show. Thank g-d the butt was not in the television frame. If you watch Channel 4 news and you see a girl in a pink top with light brown hair running - it is me. I am a star!!!

SAN ANTONIO
As I said I had a good interview with a company in San Antonio so I decided to go look at real estate and the Jewish day school over there. My daughter happened to notice what I was doing and came over. We started to look at videos of kids from the school. I have to admit they put some dorky videos on their website. Once she saw the first graders skating on paper plates for 3 minutes in their classroom, she was convinced public school was in her future. She was turned off with the old computers and lack of Smart boards in the pictures. She is so funny ... I have to admit she had a pretty good read on the situation.

REALIZATION
I have none today... just trying to fill the page. Talk to you Monday. This was not a productive day.
