sick and twisted

Ill start by saying Im a slime ball. This Im sure you already knew.

Today I called in sick... With this, I decided to post my resume on craigslist and see what happened. Well, I lined up two interviews and a possible 3rd.

The first is tomorrow afternoon which I will probably cancel due to transportation issues. Although its definitely workable by bus and BART, its not all that convenient and would be traveling a greater distance, cost more, and the pay rate is unsure.

The second call I received was from an accountant who was hired by a PET imaging company. Apparently their biller hasnt sent out bills in 4 months and they hired this woman to try and fix it. It seemed to me like she was drilling me for free information on how to solve their problems. Basically asking me how the doctor can get his money quickest and easiest. She will let me know.

The 3rd one came later this evening which Im really excited about. Its here in San Francisco, down by Embarcadero which means I wouldnt have to take BART. Its a training position for a company that trains people for certification in medical coding and billing. Its funny but Ive always wanted to be a part of a training department so it would be a great thing for me. The pay is a little more than Im making now and combined with the savings in transportation, it seems to be a good opportunity. My interview is Wednesday evening. Wish me luck.

As for the rest of the day, Ive pretty much done nothing. I am most likely going to be sick tomorrow as well and use the time to relax more. I chatted online, took a nap, watched some TV, finally transferred the video from Rochester Pride 2003 onto VHS, and took a nice hot bath this morning. I started reading The Inferno which is a bit tough to get into but I made it past the first chapter and can comprehend most of it. It reminds me alot of The Odyssey which I remember well from high school.

As for other things, the rain stopped yesterday and it turned out to be a nice day. Today the rain held out for most of the day but started again around 5:30. The temperature was 58 today and it looks like Wednesday we should see a steady forecast of sunshine and upper 50s. Im told the past few weeks were out of the norm for San Francisco and that the rain usually changes to sunshine around the end of February. I can totally deal with that.

Everything else is one day at a time.
