so friday was quite a day. i had my interview at that ad agency, but getting there was a problem. the directions i got were pretty bad, and even though i left 90 minutes before i was supposed to be there, i still got there 20 minutes late. but the interview went well; they didn't even notice that i was late. i met with the traffic manager, a senior art director, and a senior copywriter, which if i got the job, i'd be working closely with all three of them. so, the interview went really well. then i fucked up on the proofreading test, or at least that's how i feel. i think i did all right on the editing part, but on the very short spelling part, i think i royally fucked up. it's just a gut feeling, but my gut is usually pretty right.
so i end up getting out of my interview at 5 p.m. On a Friday. on the north side of austin, with me heading south. so you can imagine how easy it was for me to get lost, seeing as how i know very little of north austin. i ended up being lost for an hour and a half before finally finding my way back to I-35. so i'm finally heading back to san marcos, and traffic is bad between buda and kyle, as usual with all that damn construction, and i notice zooey acting a little weird, like taking a longtime to speed up and sputtering a little. until, finally, zooey decides he wants to stop. in the exact same spot where i crashed him more than a month ago. fucking eerie. the oil light came on, so i decided to put some oil in. apparently that worked because afterward zooey was working great. the funny thing was a man in a white truck stopped by to see if i needed any help. that's right, white truck. you know, as in white horse. i thought it was funny.
i finally got home and called rebecca to see if she still wanted to go with me to cat scientist. she said that she probably wouldn't but to join her and her incredibly hot roommate for a drink at a local bar. so i did. then i headed back up to austin to catch cat scientist. i ran into some of the TLCers and former TLCers, such as Brant, Bill, Rae (all cat scientist-ers), Joel, Amy, Melinda, Awesome Joolie, Hilary, and most notably BJM. i swear, i was such a schoolgirl when he talked to me. and all throughout the show, i kept turning back to look at him. sigh. i'm pathetic. but the highlight, besides it being a great show as usual, was that i got BJM's e-mail address. now i can ask him out and ultimately be rejected.
the night meandered from there and ended somewhere around 4 a.m. at Amy's apartment with her cute fluffy cats.
fast forward to today. i e-mailed BJM to see if he wants to go to this battle of the bands today and possibly a drink on wednesday. and i e-mailed my old boss to see if there are any openings. now i'm just trying to decide if i still want to go to the battle of the bands or stay in town and hang with leanne. i also need to download and edit the cat scientist photos and see if any of them turned out ok.
gah. ok. time for more tv. then decisions. more soon.
