.:reflections of twilight:.

I love this song. It's so ethereal and romantic. I've listened to it numerous times today. Here's the lyrics.

( lyrics )

It's even better when you hear it. To me it sounds as if she's singing to a newly reunited lover and she's whispering in his ear as they embrace. *siiigh* I'm such a hopeless romantic.

Anyway, in regards to the interview yesterday, I felt it went really well. She told me what the position entailed. It was basically what I thought. Mostly it's involved with posting charges for services and for payroll. There's a lot of sitting, which compared to all the standing I've been doing it'll be cake. They're gonna be busiest toward the end of the month every month due to making sure everything is posted before the first of the following month, but I think I can handle it.

She said she'd call me Friday since she had other interviews to do, but she said she likes to hire internally, so I have a good feeling.

Mom's been having a bunch of neurological tests done since she apparently had a mini stroke about a month or so ago. I hope they can get everything sorted out so that nothing like this can happen again. Luckily she doesn't seem to have any aftereffects or anything. Hopefully we've seen the last of these little episodes...

I saw some pictures from the wedding we went to last weekend. Mom did a good job, I must say, She got some good angles and close-ups. I saw the one of us that was taken. Egads! I look like the bride of Casper, I'm so white! I generally don't think I take good photos anyway, so I could be somewhat overly critical about these things.

Word of the Day: quiescent
Pronunciation: /kwy-ES-unt/
adj : quiet, still, or at rest; inactive

Well, the job interview yesterday went well, or at least it seemed that way to me. She started off by asking me to tell her a little bit about myself. I never know how to handle that sort of thing. I mean, what do I say? "Yes, I've been unemployed ever since I graduated college four years ago, and I spend my free time surfing the Internet and watching anime." Basically I just lamely said I was still trying to find my niche in life... *facepalm* But, that was the only rough part of the interview. They may have an opening for me at an OB/GYN place where some of the ladies who work there are going to be going on maternity leave soon. So, I keep my fingers crossed. I should hear back from them in a few days.

kawaiiayu has just made my day. She uploaded some songs for me from the Grey's Anatomy soundtrack. They have some really great music on the show. So, now I'm listening to them and being all happy! *squee*

Plus, in addition to those two songs, I upload some Tori Amos songs that someone on another journal had uploaded from her The Piano compilation, and they're ones I don't already have, so that's a good thing...

And, in case you were curious, this is the printer I was talking about in yesterday's post. Not too bad, I say...

Speaking of which, I have a card or two to make sometime today...

Trivia of the day: According to a survey, an estimated 5.5 million Americans believe they have been defrauded into buying something over the phone. A U.S. subcommittee has estimated that while telemarketing fraud costs consumers more than $40 billion a year, only about one in 10,000 victims reports the problem to authorities.<--which is why we screen our phone calls

God, I love this song. I must thank flamika for including it on her DN fanmix...

Well, I didn't get the job offered to me. They didn't give me a reason, they just sent an e-mail saying I wasn't what they were looking fo at this time. So, I'm going to go later on today and drop of my resume at a Temp Agency. Hopefully if I specify 'Data Entry' I can actually get Data Entry.

We're supposed to be going out to dinner tonight, but mom hasn't called to reconfirm my aunt and uncle's availability which is preventing her from making reservations. So, needless to say, I'm not holding my breath.

I did another icon shuffle today. I still have two slots left and one is reserved for one I thought I had downloaded, but it turns out I didn't. The other one... I don't remember what I was saving it for. I'm sure it'll come to me eventually.

Since Friday's are generally slim post days, I have here an interesting thing I got from crzydemona:

1. Your Rock Star Name (the name of your first pet and the name of the current street you live on): Suzette "Suzy" Locksley <--- actually my prior street, but it sounds better. And I think this is a cool rocker name! Along with my band, The Squid Eyes!

2. Your Movie Star Name (your grandmother on your dad's side first name and your favorite candy): Barbara Snickers <--- which I think goes better than Barbara Reese's Peanut Butter Cup or Barbara Nestle Crunch.

3. Your "Fly Girl/Guy" Name (the first initial of your first name and the first two or three letters of your last name): D-Bat <--- actually, I think I should change it to Da Bat. It still kinda fits and it sounds way cool.

4. Your Detective Name (your favorite animal and your favorite color): Cat Blue <--- I think this is an awesome detective name! Kinda like out of those 40's pulp detective novels!

5. Your Soap Opera Name (your middle name and the city where you were born): Ruth Elkhart <--- I think that'd kinda work, don't you?

6. Your "Star Wars" Name (the first three letters of your last name, the last three letters of your mother's maiden name, and the first three letters of your pet's name): BatIngMoo <--- *snort* Looks more like a bad Scrabble hand if you ask me.

7. Your Jedi Name (your middle name spelled backwards and your mom's maiden name spelled backwards): Htur Ginkrew <--- that sounds pretty cool, if you ask me.

8. Porn Star Name (your middle name, your father's middle initial and the name of the street you grew up on): Ruth A. Main <--- I'm not 100% sure of the name of the street I grew up on. I lived in a very small town...

9. Your Superhero Name ("The" + your favorite color and a car you drive/own): The Blue Saturn <--- coming to the rescue!!

10. Your Jewish Name (the first three letters of your first name + "-ri" and your favorite color + "-berg," "-stein," or "-enthal"): Danri Bluestein <--- my last name makes no sense... maybe it should be "Bluenthal."

11. Your Ghetto Name (the first two letters of your first name + "Shawn/Qwan/Ron/Quita/Niqua" and the last name of whatever currency you pull out of your pocket): DaQuita Lincoln <--- *giggle*

I hope at least some of you participate. I'd kinda like to see what everyone has.

Have a good weekend and a Happy Easter/Passover!!

Trivia of the day: Zachary Taylor, formerly a professional soldier, never voted. He didn’t even vote in the election that elected him U.S. president.

I can tell I like this song a lot. According to my iTunes, I've listened to it 10 times. I think I can beat that. But it's not the one I've listened to the most, though. That one is "If You Want Me To" by Ginny Owens.

I'm thinking of pre-ordering TriMax 8 from Amazon.com instead of Dark Horse. I think they may be more prompt. At least I hope so. I may order the majority of my manga from them in the future. They have good deals.

I'm having a wee bit of trouble with the one set of icons I want to do. It's finding the images that's giving the most trouble. If necessary, I can back burner it for the time being. I think I also want to make me a NANA bookmark and possibly a Kaze Hikaru one as well. I'll have to see.

My car is being poopy lately. My coolant reserve tank like to empty too quickly on me, so there may be a leak, so I can't drive it around much. *cries* Later today I have to walk down to the 7-11 to get mom some milk. It's not that far, but it's a bit nippy out and I'll be carrying something cold...

Since I don't have a lot to post on today, I'll be meme-ing it!

Trivia of the day: Because the orange roughy grows slowly — the average fish is between 30 and 50 years old — the New Zealand government has imposed fishing restrictions. Consequently, the fish is not as abundant in stores as during the 1980's.
