I had a dream I was movin' forward...
I've rejoined the ranks of the gainfully employed!
In the end, it just took knowing somebody - Mom and I went to get our pictures taken for the church directory a few weeks ago, and while waiting Mom chatted with some of the other folks there and mentioned how I was looking for work. One of them gave me his card and told me to come by his office.
Two interviews later, I'm on board as a 'customer service receptionist' in the local State Farm office. It's part-time, but only in the sense that I'm working 9 - 4 instead of 8 - 5. Damn, now I have to do laundry and think of things to do with my hair in the mornings.
In related news, Great Big Sea's "Feel It Turn" is officially my lucky song;![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
narli, who's been generously pimping GBS to me, gave me the mp3 the night before my first interview, and I played it immediately before leaving for both meetings. It seemed apropos. Also, it's a great song. Everybody should go out and get some Great Big Sea. I command it.
