Whoa!

  "So my mom's husband mentioned to me on Sunday that he thought there was a job at his company I might be interested in. He works for the Hartford insurance co. and the job is as the person who goes out and appraises the damage to clients cars after wrecks to see if they are worth fixing or not. I told him it was something I might be very interested in. So he spoke with the head of that department at the Hartford. Turns out they aren't hiring, but he liked my resume, so he passed it on to the head of the same departmetn at Progressive Ins. That guy was also impressed and the practical upshot of this is that I should be expecting a call from HR at Progressive in the next couple of days.
  Sojob possibility without the horror that is job hunting. But this also involves an interview for a corporate job. I'm vassilating wildly between gleeful hopefulness, and utter terror."

  "Having gorged myself on tasty, tasty pub food[1], I am going to wait for that to settle, then head out to see the Hartford pre-screening of Serenity.
  Life is good sometimes."
