Day Seven: Unemployment

I applied to about five jobs this morning. I think the most exciting one was with Rosetta Stone. The position involved working with test panels. It would be neat to do something like that. Definitely brings me back to the days of student experiments back in college. Fun times.

I got contacted back by a tutoring group called the Literacy Lab. I am going to interview with them on Friday. I used to tutor a 6th grade girl in reading/writing and it was enjoyable. I think that kind of thing comes naturally to me, but is it going to pay the bills?

I also went to Wegman's for some groceries in the morning. E came over to hang out for the evening. I made turkey meatloaf and some potatoes for dinner. Rather uneventful evening. One of my new favorite shows is "Too Fat for 15." I really want to write letters to the kids on the show and let them know what a great job they are doing and to encourage them to keep up the good work.

Got through the jive on Cardio Ballroom, but found the Paso waaaay too complicated, so I quit about 15 seconds into it. It was a good workout though.

I decided that I should go ahead and tackle the whole name change game this week at the social security office and dmv, especially since J has to put me on his insurance now. I figure I can use my maiden name as a middle name since I don't have a middle name. It is still really awkward to go by a different last name though. Ehh... do I really want to change it?
