Cover Letter Writing Follow-Up: Practice Man, Practice
Still putting my new home together after the marriage-separation move. Spent most of the night on a computer wiring project, so I can use my desktop in a room without an ether net connection (the PC isn't wireless capable...it's a little on the old side, but it still works well). My boys like playing with the computer, so I wanted to have it set up for them when I get them back Sunday. I plan to have this place even more in shape by then.
So, I am getting to today's blog post late, and I'm tired; and I have work tomorrow. Wish I had a night job. Never been a morning person. But especially with kids, I have no choice but to be a morning person.
I heard back from one of the new jobs I wrote cover letters and vitas for. Not my favorite of the two, but it may turn out to be the better fit for me for a number of reasons. I will probably get the interview. I may even get the job, which is a bit, well, scary. New town. Step forward on the career path in a new position with people I don't know. Moving, again, to a new city (but it's a nicer and bigger city, which is also a better fit for me).
I could even commute until my current lease expires, but then I'd want to live close to my workplace, as I do now (short commutes rule!). And this could be THE career-job I've been working toward, so maybe I will just a buy a home...finally.
All speculation at this point, of course. If it was just me, no worries at all. But with kids and a divorce on the horizon, there is uncertainty involved in everything I do. It's like my freedom's been reduced by like 90%.
In any case, I also want to point out that I really am awesome at cover letters and vitas, as I mentioned before. Interviews are another story. I'm pretty hit or miss with those. I'm hoping to increase my interview "hit" performance. Practice, man. Practice. Just like anything else.
So this post is pretty scattered. Talk about lack of focus. But people continue to at least view my blog. No idea if anyone reads it. I never get feedback or comments. I have surpassed the 500 total views mark. And only four days ago I had not even reached 300. My page views seem to be growing exponentially. I had 81 alone yesterday. My previous highest page views for one day was 68 on both the 14th (my first blog) and the 20th (where I discussed missing my boys and getting back to following my passion).
We will see what tomorrow brings.
Since I neglected to cuss in this post, I feel I must provide a substitute, via video clip, that should more than make up for my transgressions.
