The Hunt Begins...

I've been back in Boulder for a week now. No job yet but oh boy what a time it's been trying to find one so far! My approach is to apply just about everywhere in all of Boulder in hopes that there is one single place left that needs help. So far I have not found this place. I've gotten lots of practice filling out applications both paper and internet and have gotten a couple interviews, but so far nothing. Can't give up yet though! It's only been a week, I guess all hope is not lost. Today, however, I was on my way to an interview when I got pooped on by a bird. Sigh. Such is life sometimes I suppose. So not having time to find a place to wash my hands, I just wiped the poo off my shoulder, hand, and shoe and proceeded into my interview after also quickly checking my hair for and more signs of poop out of fear that it would go unnoticed by me but might draw attention from my interviewer. Luckily no poop in my hair was to be found. Never have I been soiled by a bird, however, and it just figures that it would happen while I was on my way to a job interview! In any case I think the interview went alright so that's good. And they do say it's good luck to be pooped on by a bird but I have my suspicions that this saying was only created to make people who have just been pooped-on feel better. Kind of like saying it's good luck for it to rain on your wedding day. It may be good luck but it kind of ruins the present day!

In any case, I've entered the world of job-hunting and hope to leave the land of unemployment soon. If anyone out there hears of any job openings please let me know!!

As an unrelated side note, I am reading a completely hilarious book called Round Ireland with a Fridge by Tony Hawks (not to be confused with the skateboarder Tony HAWK). It's a laugh-out-loud kind of book and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to laugh.

  1. Wahoo for The Fridge book...two thumbs up!! Maybe you should make weird bets with your friends like he did and then you wouldn't have to find a job...as long as you won the bets! Haha
