Whenever I have time off work, I get into this not so healthy pattern of either staying waaaaay too late, or getting up in the middle of the night and getting on the computer. Now, let me explain...I do have a hard time going to sleep sometimes, and sometimes I have a hard time STAYING asleep due to my bad back-it gets to hurting so much that I HAVE to get out of bed; however, I have got to break this somehow, because I get all off schedule and am always feeling unrested. Hopefully we will get a new mattress soon, and that should help a lot with my back. Also, if I would get busy and lose some poundage, that would help in all KINDS of ways.
Anyhoo, I got up at 11:45 today because I was up most of the night (plus my tummy didn't feel good). I knew I had to get busy making calls and such to commence job hunting and filing for unemployment, but it took me forever to get around to it. I tried calling unemployment a couple of times but was on hold forever (ok 45 minutes, but it FELT like forever). Finally got through and went through about 15 minutes of automated questions, then talked to a nice lady named Mavis who finished everything up. She sounded like a truck-stop waitress (not that there's anything wrong with that-it's just a description!) :) She asked why I was terminated from my job. I told her that I had been accused of "violating sales ethics" and she said "I hate that (insert bank name here)! I do NOT trust them!" Too funny. Here's who she actually reminded me of:
Good ole' Maxine! Maxine..I mean, Mavis, told me she believes that I will have NO problem qualifying for unemployment. Of course I have to wait for someone else from unemployment to call me for an official phone interview, and from there they will determine if I qualify for benefits, so I will not count on anything until it actually happens.
I also received a call from an agency today in response to my cover letter and resume that I emailed to them yesterday, so I have an interview with them tomorrow for a job as a medical billing assistant, sooooo, we shall see.
On a side note, I'm beginning to wonder if anyone has even seen my blog. I think I've done everything right as far as making sure it shows up in searches, etc. Oh well, I'll give it some more time. Meanwhile it's good for me to kinda use as a diary/journal. I'm beginning to realize how easy it is to forget the details of daily life, the little things that happen, so this blogging is a good experiment for me.
This is me lately:
Sick, I know. Heh.
