Lots of Errand Running Today

[prosodic]

Two phone calls to be made:

- One to Tricare (because it seems like they are trying to bill me for my doctor's appointment, and since they assigned me to this doctor and told me that I only had to pay for prescriptions out of pocket, I am not well pleased at the prospect of shelling out $400 for a standard medical appointment that should be covered by EVERY insurance policy). Lance is taking care of this phone call, but if nothing gets resolved today, I will probably end up having to do the follow-through.

- One to Appleone, because my paycheck was mysteriously absent from my mailbox on both Friday and Saturday, and I believe I told them to send my paycheck to me every week. If they still have it, I'll have to drive over there to pick it up. Also, must inform them that I am on the callback list for my most recent temp job. Yay. :P

Errands:

- To post office, to mail out V-Day cards and gifts.

- To hair salon to get my bangs cut.

- To Target, to pick up a couple prescriptions and return an item.

- To HD, to pick up more DIF for wallpaper stripping this evening.

- Possibly to Appleone, to pick up paycheck...and then to the bank to deposit it. (ETA: It was mailed out Saturday morning, so I should get it today.)

- And if the weather is good, to Earthworks Park, to take a walk.

Household Duties:

- Clean bathrooms

- Wallpaper stripping

I also need to do a toning workout here at home. And I need to apply for more jobs. There is one that I know of in job title only...I cannot find any job description, but it's Writer/Editor - Contractor, so it sounds kind of like a freelance thing to me. And I think it's for classmates.com. It's the company that owns classmates.com, and the job is in Renton, where classmates.com is based.

I went to classmates.com last night actually, and updated my profile and added a crapload of pictures, all from our various travels. My 15 year reunion is supposed to be this year (if there is one being held...good God, I'm old) and since I have no intention of going if there is one (and doubt they could track me down to invite me anyway), at least my profile is updated for the curious who want to know how I spent the last 15 years.

But I was a total nobody in high school, so I doubt anyone is curious. The highlight of my 4 years there was getting my yearbook signed by the most popular guy in school, who was actually aware of my existence, and only because we were both on the school newspaper staff. I wasn't popular. I wasn't unpopular. I was just there, and people generally only knew of me because of my older brother, who was apparently more popular than I ever hoped to be.

Where do you look for jobs? My favorite website is craigslist but i bet you check that one out all the time ;)

I look at craigslist...that's actually where I find the most creative and interesting job listings. I think most of the jobs I've applied for have been through there.

Indeed.com is another great source because it pulls from all the major job search sites, so it keeps you from looking all over the place.

I also like nwjobs.com.
