New jobby-job stuff...

So I'm about half an hour away from an interview for a position that will give me my weekends back.  Weekends, people!  Those days called 'Saturday' and 'Sunday' that normal folks don't have to wake up at 4:30 am for!  WooHoo!  Hopefully I will find out before the day's out whether they're going to be offering me the position.

I've also sent an "application" to a Twitter list of characters for the hit Fox show Glee.....basically, they're looking for folks to tweet in the roles of characters, so I asked to be the new girl.  Hope to hear back on that one pretty soon, too.  Along with that, I have a new friend who comes complete with many of the same issues I have and an idea about a year-long blog to do something about those issues!

I'm up to my eyeballs in new stuff to do and I couldn't be happier about.  Wishing me luck, cuz it's time to go talk to HR.... :-D

Writing for fun and profit (for real!)

So I seem to have stumbled across a couple of amazing opportunities to stretch my writing talents... One is certain and will involve self-improvement. The other is not so certain but could actually mean a paycheck!

A month ago I was feeling lousy that I'd missed the Glamour essay contest deadline.  Now I'm feeling like I'm just getting started on something so much more interesting. Hope to be better for it in time for the next essay contest!
