Application

For the first time since I started looking a few weeks ago, I've found a job to apply for--editorial assistant at the history museum.

It's full time, and I'd prefer a part-time job so I could keep the BOOK's job, but what the heck? It won't hurt to apply, right?

I'm qualified, it would suit me, 
and it pays $19/hour = almost double the thrift store's pay.
I wouldn't consider leaving the thrift store if they'd give me more hours or pay... But they say they "can't". (Stupid on their part.)


Among other things, I'd hate to give up the physical nature of my BOOK's job...
I've not lost an ounce, but I am stronger after a year lifting books. I'm often sore after work, but one-day on/one-day off seems to give me enough time to recover and even build up strength.
 Going back to desk work could be a problem.

(In theory, I could volunteer at the thrift store, but in reality, working full-time, I doubt I would.)

Well... I'll worry about all that it IF I get the job--they're sure to get lots of qualified applicants (esp. since it's an assistant position).


I got another animal T-shirt! A coworker had showed me this T-shirt, saying it says, "BAD CAT", but it says "DAB CAT".
I had to look it up. I'd thought it referred to a boxing punch, the dab, but no--it's a dance move.

I'm off to watch the Women's World Cup semifinal USA v. England game with bink & friends at a local second-run movie theater that shows the games for free. 
Popcorn and lemonade for lunch!
