I walked into a Womans Restroom

I did in fact walk into a womans restroom by mistake today. I was feeling pretty spacey. I think it might have been because I had just gotten off the phone with a recruiter talking about a position with a company he represented. It is a manufacturing job working with power generators, large scale and small. It could mean designing things and working on a manufacturing floor. I’m hoping that turns into an interview. We were at target, and then we went and bought groceries. It is going to be fun having tacos and watching Smallville tomorrow. Lauren and I invited some of our neighbors over for that, and we’re hoping a few come. Also, all the people I know who can get here are invited, but I figured I emailed most of them already, so posting about it is redundant.

While I was hanging up pictures and towel racks for Lauren today I got a second call. This one was a guy calling me back who I sent a resume to, who works for a company that sells industrial level computers to manufacturing plants. The company is called Total Control Solutions and it looks like it could be right up my alley. He said this was an entry level position that isn’t so much about sales, but more about helping customers with upgrades, and things like that than sales. Anyway, pray for me, because I would love to have either of these jobs as far as they look so far.

Besides that I ordered an HP Ipod, which is an apple Ipod, but sold by, and serviced by HP. Also, it is like a first available kind of thing from the site. If you order the apple you get the apple ipod, if you order the HP, you get whatever is available. And, since they just came out, the HP’s are more available.

Also, I’m working on a CD that installs windows XP, all the right drivers, and all the software you actually use, right in the XP install, so once the desktop comes up, you have all the programs you need, and less overall reboots. But it is kind of a steep curve to figure all the stuff out, which is why it is taking me so long to reformat my laptop, which is in need of something (hopefully the format will fix it) because it is just not working right at all.

That is about it for today. Later.
