Well, I had my interview (the secret thing I was working on) and, while it went well, it doesn't look like I'm gonna get the job. Oh well. Thanks to all of you who were rooting for me - it means a lot. I'm sure better opportunites will arise, but this one was looking so good. I mean, I had a phone interview, my referencew were all told that I was looking like *the* candidate, the job posting actually didn't require 3+ years of prior programming experience in a 'work' environment. *sigh* I guess I can't have EVERYTHING in life come easy, eh? lol

I've been absent from the blogoshpere as of late, mainly due to, well, nothing really. Just feeling unmotivated to write. I'm not sure why - you'll do a great job of commenting, so I'll be more committed to posting from now on (I know *I* hate it when the blogs I frequent don't post regularly enough).

I updated my computer's motherboard, processor, and videocard a couple of days ago. It's really running nice now. Yowza!

Check out this Japanese restaurant I found while trying to google for my blog (which didn't find my blog, incidentally). Okay, so the site is in Japanese, but you'll be able to see some pictures of what is, I'm sure, their most delicious assortment of food. I guess the owner of the restaurant used to own an Italian restaurant. After vacationing in the US, and specifically, a certain beautifully named Oatman, Arizona, he was hit by a flash of inspiration. Upon returning to his native Kawagoe, Japan, he changed his restaurant from Italian to American cuisine and promptly named it Oatman. The kinda neat thing is, I've BEEN to Kawagoe before - my friend Yoko lives there! Probably he really just saw me and decided he wanted to name his establishment after such a cool individual and then just made up some cover story so he wouldn't have to admit it. lol

I wanna eat at Oatman's...do you think they'll deliver? I heard they serve the BEST pepperoni and hot dog combination plate in the whole wide universe.

Don't give up hope on the job hunt. Ya gotta keep plugging away and the good one will come to you 'cause you're just damned good at what you do.
