I feel like I should be out doing something, but I don't know what exactly.

I know I have to go out later and take movies back to Hollywood Video and pick up a pair of hose and some milk at Target. I've run out of suits to wear to job interviews...I have a pair of dress pants and 2 jackets and I've had 3 interviews with this company so far (thankfully two were done in one day so I didn't have to change). So now I am left with nothing else to wear unless I wear my black floral skirt with my black jacket. But I need hose. If they want me to come in for any more interviews after this fourth one, I don't know what I'll do. I don't really want to buy another suit (lack of money being one issue, but also because of the chance that I might not even need it after the interview, and they're too expensive to buy just for that), but I also don't want to wear something I already wore.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. I haven't called yet to schedule interview #4. I feel like I shouldn't necessarily be waiting by the phone, but inevitably, somebody will call when I'm not at the house. It's yucky outside anyway...the kind of day that lends itself much more easily to snuggling in a blanket on the couch while either reading or flipping between HGTV and Food Network. If I do nothing else today, I at least have to vacuum. Well, I don't *have* to...who sees the house but me? But it's due for a vacuuming.

I wish I could describe how I'm feeling today. This has been a roller coaster week for me emotionally. And I just wish I could have more control over certain things in my life. But I can't, and it's frustrating. I just wish Lance was here to offer me a little moral support. He's doing the best he can via texting and phone calls. But this isn't the first time I've had to face problems alone, and it won't be the last.

Laziness has won the day today. (At least I did cardio this morning, so I can justify it.) I'll be going out later, but around dinnertime, so I can pick up some chinese food at the grocery store...yeah, they actually have great chinese takeout there. I'll drop off my movies, pick up some more for the weekend (free! Because I have a coupon!) and then I'll go to the grocery store to grab some milk and some sweet and sour chicken, or whatever is on their menu for today, since it changes daily.

Since lunch, I have watched a little Food Network, started a new book, texted Paula (she sent me a picture from Ruby Tuesday's of her husband's ginormous hamburger), and took a fairly long nap snuggled under my down blanket on the couch. Lance also texted me, but I missed it because I was sleeping. But he's done with work for the day and I'll probably be talking to him soon.

Rainy Night at Home

The Jane Austen Book Club is a good movie. Just sayin'. It's been awhile since I read the book, but I don't think the movie deviated from it too much. I could be wrong about that, but I enjoyed both anyway.

The other two movies I got are Becoming Jane (sense a Jane Austen theme here?) and 2 Days In Paris.

Had a dinner of sweet and sour pork and teriyaki chicken with steamed brown rice and an eggroll. Note to self: do not get sweet and sour anything from the grocery store anymore. The teriyaki chicken was good. The sweet and sour pork? Not so much.

For dessert, I got a fortune cookie with a very peculiar fortune that said something about going to the desert for a fun vacation. Oh, and I also had a little bit of my dark chocolate bar from my stash of baking chocolate.

All in all, I have can think of very few better ways to spend a rainy night.
