Doh! My resume had the WRONG PHONE NUMBER on it. Can you believe it???So, I swallowed hard and explained to the HR person that I was a dork and must have sent her my resume BEFORE I saved it in Word.
Luckily, we laughed it off and rescheduled the phone interview for Friday. Good thing this isn't my "first impression", right??? I still can't believe I did that. That means they got the resume that was not grammatically correct, also. Yikes.
So I have 33 open c...

Yesterday my little baby boy turned 10. He wanted to go out for dinner at Texas Roadhouse so we did. We invited my Dad to join us and it was a nice time.

I also put a savings plan in motion and a plan to pay off the little bit of credit card debt we've carried for a year, now. I am feeling much better about my job, my ...Thursday, January 31st 2008
Been really really busy with work. I've been working on my boss about the virtues of my learning more about Microsoft SQL Server. During my review, I told him that I know he disagrees, but that I still feel strongly about increasing my knowledge 'cuz I do database stuff EVERY stinkin' day. He must have been in a reasonable frame of mind that day because ACTUALLY AGREED and told me to look into it. Yay...another adventure. This should keep me mentally occupied for a few months as I've dec...
