Heeerrrreeeee's hopin'!

I've recently made myself okay with the fact that I may not work as a designer as my main job. Sure, it'd be nice, but I must face reality that the job market is quite tough these days. It's disheartening to learn on an interview that you are one applicant of 367 in the area, and 200 of them have 5 years more experience than you do. I didn't expect to be coming out of school interviewing for entry level work and competing with graduates from 2004 who have boat loads more industry experience than I do, but oh well, so be it I suppose.
I seem to have some chance of moving up at my current job, Staples, possibly into a specialist role at a Fort Worth area store. This would allow us to live in the area we've wanted to live in since we met each other, and that's Southside Fort Worth, the historic district. Here's hopin' on that one.

That'd be a house we've been watching a crew renovate for a while, and we LOVE it.
I've been woken up by an upset stomach... I'm making the move to veganism again (yay!) after a brief stint of vegetarianism while we were broke. However, our worsening health and an attack of my conscience which screams louder and louder each day made us want to make the move back to being vegan again. I plan to have the move done by Monday.
It's 5:48 am and I can tell today will be a very long day at work. Thankfully I just got a BlackBerry to occupy my slow time. I'm going to see about catching some more z's.
