Airplanes

It's funny and coincidental. As I was driving to a meeting with Jackie's mom on Friday, the song "Airplanes" by B.o.B., Haley Williams and Eminem came on the radio. I wouldn't say it was a sign since the song doesn't really point to anything. It was very coincidental, though, because I did need a wish. Robyn (Jackie's mom/my 2nd mother) works for AppleOne, a company that finds jobs for people and fills jobs for clients. She got in a listing for a Concierge at this place called Mondial Assistance Group. She thought I was perfect for the position, so she hooked me up with an interview that day. So Friday was busy for me. I went to AppleOne, filled out paperwork and became an official associate of theirs. I then went and had an interview with Mondial to get the job. It went very well! The lady interviewing me was laughing and really interested in my theater experience. I was very well spoken and said all the right things. She said I would find out within the next 24 hours the outcome of this process. Well it's Sunday, and I'm hoping it is just because yesterday was Saturday and today is Sunday... and they want to wait for a business day. I need this job. 8A-4P Tuesday-Saturday, $12 an hour, right in Innsbrook. I need this job. I'm afraid I won't get it, though, because I specifically said I wanted 8A-4P and not the other shift, 12P-8P. I know I need to be flexible, but sheesh, 12P-8P? No way. No freakin' way am I working noon until 8P every day. I need to get into theater, which normally starts rehearsal at 7P, so I can't do 8P. Eh I dunno, maybe I'm just being negative. I really need this job, though. Great pay for a pretty good job. I'll keep Blog Nation updated. :)

Addendum: I forgot to write about the most important thing I meant to mention. So it's almost the one year anniversary of my Uncle Mike passing away. My aunt posted a simple Facebook status: "Today is a sad day." It make me thing about a lot. I know I take my dad for granted sometimes... a lot of the time. I just don't know how to fix our relationship, and I don't think it will be fixed for a long, long time. I don't know what I'd do if I lost him, though. Losing my Uncle Mike was hard, really damn hard. He's always been like a father to me, even if he was strict as hell and yelled a lot. Haha. But he always did some great things for me. My family really took a big hit when Uncle Mike passed. He was my mom's brother-in-law, but that in-law part barely mattered. It's always been my Aunt Sue with Uncle Rick (who, by the way, are not married, but pretty much have common law because they've been together for so damn long), Barb with Gary (my parents), and Aunt Joyce with Uncle Mike. My family is so close, even all of the in-laws are pretty much apart of our core family. My family is insane, my family is out of their damn minds, but I couldn't have it any other way. Happy Fathers' Day to all, especially my dad and my Uncle Mike.

Day 18 - A Song That You Wish You Heard on the Radio

I chose KT Tunstall's "Suddenly I See." I really like this song, and I think it's the perfect cruising song on a nice sunny day. I don't have a CD player in the car I'm driving (aka my dad's... rwar), so sometimes I just want to listen to good songs on the radio. This is one they need to play more!

Day 19 - A Song from Your Favorite Album

from

I chose "Don't Speak" from No Doubt. The album is "Tragic Kingdom." This is, hands down, the best album ever recorded. My opinion, of course, but every song on this album is memorable and genius. Gwen and the boys were rockin' when this came out in 1995. Wow. 1995? Really. 15 years ago. Trife. I picked "Don't Speak" because it reminds me of the concert I went to in 8th grade in DC where I met No Doubt. Pretty bangin'. :D

Day 20 - A Song You Listen to When You're Angry

I chose "If You C Jordan" by Something Corporate. This song is pretty bitchy and full of spite. It's about this asshole who has spent so much time terrorizing the singer, but when they grow up... the singer is kick ass and Jordan is a big douche that no one likes. Something Corporate is pretty ballin' in the days of pre-Jack's Mannequin (same singer, fyi). This song just fuels my rage, and then lets it go. Haha.
