Mondays....

Make me ponder whether I should wait 1 day to go to unemployment office or just get it over with today. I be the wait will be far less if I go tomorrow. I can only imagine how many people will be there, with it being the start of a new month, and all the people that got shitcanned on Friday. Who am I kidding, its gonna take all day no matter when I go there... oh well, gotta get it done, just to have my bases covered. Got everything filed online, but they say that you still have to down to that place, oh well...

Dave from Alro called back last week, get to go in and met his boss and sit in with Purchasing for a few hours next week. It appears at least as if I made it past the first interview round. I am very curious to hear and see what the Purchasing Agent positon is like there. I got a sneeking suspicion that I will be far better off there than I was back at the 'ol place if it works out. The glass ceiling will be broken for the first time in 3 years, no thanks to the old-schoolers from the 'ol place. The pay should be right in the ballpark or better too, but we'll have to wait and find out.

Chloe got to see the big chunk of Tracy's mom's family this weekend. It was a bit tense, when Tracy's mom got to be face-to face with her long astranged brother Louie. They aparently had quite a falling out after Tracy's mom became executor of their mothers will, which happened over 10 years ago. Talk about holding onto angst for too long, I thought I was bad. Of course its Louie that hold the bitter axe, Tracy's mom has not done anyhting to provoke him from what I can tell. Seems rather one-sided. and way overdue to end. Luckily it all went well, and maybe they will have more gatherings in the future like that
