no not yet... I won't unless I actually have a new job. I'm way too broke to go without the monies...
But if I did get a job in a new state, that whole trying to figure out breaking lease/ paying for new lease stuff is going to be annoying 
having money seems like it would really solve a lot of my potential problems...

the bad news is the torture of interviewing and applying for jobs isn't over yet...

and that sucks, too. the lady's son is also down with a stomach virus. I'm thinking of duct-taping his mouth shut to keep the fumes from floating throughout the house. I may send you some duct-tape to keep your fingers from infecting my computer, too.
however, get better...soon.

huh I guess I get a change to update my coding portion of the test so maybe it's not totally over yet...
well for one thing I am terrible at buzzwords... I'll know how something should be implemented, and can write the required code, but I don't always remember the buzzword name for what I'm doing... There are so many, that I try to refresh on as many as I can, but I missed the ones they asked about, and hadn't used them in about 2+ years

ah, I get it. so you might have blown the test, but you didn't tell the interviewer to piss off or anything. nice that you get to change the test. hopefully that changes things well enough. good luck!

We'll see!
also apparently I am in the running for a 6 month contract job here in San Diegers... not sure exactly what I think about it right now...
on one side 6 months might be much better timing if I want to move, but on the other hand, I will likely be job hunting again in 6 months ... something I'm not totally stoked on...
I might be able to stay at my current job for 6 more months, but no telling how crappy it might be by then if it still even exists
so many adult decisions!

went hiking yesterday on a popular trail I hadn't hiked before... while the hike was fine, I realized very quickly why I had been avoiding it. There were tons of people, and I lost count of how many were blasting music. There was trash everywhere from people not wanting to hike out their water bottles, and a giant line to take a picture on the rock at the summit.
It made me a little sad to see the trail so noisy and wrecked.
I might try the hike in the early morning, or a weekday, but never again mid-day on a weekend...
