new Job
I got the job. And i will be moving back to OC. Gave my notice... Honestly feel weird about it all, kinda surreal.
But the better note is that i went out with new girl J. We had lunch on sunday and spent time watching movies. Then hung out tues and had more fun. actually she was sick and i came over for comfort (no not that kind of comfort you sickos). And we have another date on sunday.
So all in all ive had a very good few days. Which is rare if anyone knows me. And if anyone knows me they know which part of the last few days is more exciting. Not that i didnt give it away already.
Serious and retarded note...
So ive had sex with various women in my life and so the thought of physical encounter doesnt weigh to heavily on me. J and I havent had sex or even been that physical so... when the first kiss happened on tues as i was leaving damn if that isnt the best feeling ive had in my life. So am i retarded that the kiss meant that much to me? probably... but ha i dont care.

Last interview
I got a call from the job and i have one more interview to go that is set up for monday. And go figure the lady didnt call me to set it up until i called her... and then she was like i will likely need you to start on monday. Monday?! Uh if you were in such a hurry why didnt you plan on an earlier final interview?! In any case she also told me to tone down my hair again... boo. And then asked for my mangers name and his managers name. Because she thinks that because she is at a large clients site that my company will be apt to let me go... is she retarded i dont think it matter what company i go to and how big of a client they are that my company would be willing to let me go sooner and or with special considerations. I think she is smoking crack but ill figure it all out if and when i get the job.

Interviewing
Updates on interviewing. I interviewed for this same company 6 months ago. And they didnt think i was a good fight per se. But now 6 months later they still need someone to do the work and havent found anyone yet suitable. Granted 6 months ago they thought i was overqualified and i would get bored. Well yes i am overqualified and i would get bored. But ill get bored at any job... i mean its work.
Interview of late. This time i met with a contracting project manager. Of which she was set to call me and do a phone interview. This was to be at 10 on tues. She proceeded to call me at 11:15 on tues with no apology for lateness or even an excuse given. I just blew it off. Face to face interview with her. In the middle of the face to face she answered her cell phone... a personal call nonetheless, still no apology for that. Then she said i was to interview with a second person that day, but before i did that could i go into the bathroom and tone down my spikey hair. Huh? Well its a conservative company and i want you to give an impression that is relative to the company... uhmm ok so off i went to the bathroom and flattened my spikey hair... i was sort of stunned by the request... so i just went and did it. Then when i came out of the bathroom she proceeded to tell me that the last time i interviewed they thought i was immature. Huh?! So if i could step it up a bit this time. Whatever lady. So i went in to sit down with a person i had interviewed with before. And she was like this isnt the person i thought it was he isnt who i was talking about before at all. Apparently they interviewed someone else 6 months ago that was immature and they thought i was him. F you... stupid people. Im forced to deal with someone else bad impression because you guys cant figure out who i am. Dumbasses. the project manager was then quite relieved that i was not the immature one. Ack i really dont like her but thank god she is from a contracting company and wont be my manager. just a part timer who will eventually leave.
So now im waiting for a call back for the last interview. The project manager told me i was her top canidate which is why she gave me the 'advice' to tone down my hair and be more mature... whatever. Im like im your top canidate? Jeez how did u treat the others? Stab them with forks?
Anyways thats my latest update. Im just in limbo now...

Awesome
What a good week it was. To be free from chains that i created is a great thing. Life is so much simpler and easy now. I havent felt this good in a long time. New beginnings happen for me everyday and its just very uplifting. Hope the new year is going well for everyone.

Like dynamite to a fire
Well H called my friend after a year of not talking to him to tell him that she broke up with her boyfriend. Which she knew he would tell me. And of course he did and i called her. We chatted friendly like for a few minutes she was running around the city with some friends so i told her to call me back later. She did and we talked for maybe ten minutes and then she couldnt handle it anymore. And we were down to text messaging. In any case she basically told me to go to hell. and that we would never get back together. Which this was a lingering thought in my mind. And i always thought it was her boyfriend that was barring our getting back together but now its obvious its just her. She doesnt want to get back together and cant forgive me for breaking her heart then. Which i cant blame her for i was just hoping for the happy ending. So now i have no more what ifs.
I had thought about the New Year for a while and for the first few days i had noticed much. To me it seemed like every other day no new feelings. But after last night i have a much more free feeling. The old trappings of my heart are gone. Done get me wrong i still love her and care for her but its over. And now i have the New Year and new possibilities for happiness. I think its going to be a good year.
To add to the changes ive moved out of my old apartment and into a new place with some friends. So its a new beginning i was in the old place for over 4 years, and its time for a change.
Hoping everyone is getting and using their new opportunities...
Phil

Whirlwind
What a whirlwind of events in the last few weeks. Nothing spectacular mind you just alot of things going on. My parents moved into a new home. Of which i had to help them move everything. And damn they have amassed alot of things in their old home in the last 20 odd years... This was all done before Christmas so they could host the Christmas gathering.
Christmas was the normal family gathering and gift exchange. Then my relatives wanted to go to Vegas. Well lucky me i get to drive. Which i dont really mind except getting up at 7 in the morning to do. Then they wanted to see the sites, i hate sightseeing, but im the driver... Then mind you my parents and my aunt and uncle wanted to go watch a topless revue. Eh? First of all i really dislike the idea of strippers, secondly i dont want to watch with my parents. I passed. Gambled and generally drank too much.
The fri before leaving for vegas i went out with T. T and i get along great but she broke up with her boyfriend of 8 years in July and has just gotten to the point of hanging out. We went to dinner and a movie. Was pretty fun. And i can see where we would fall for each other but im holding back because she is holding back. I know why she is holding back and so at this point im not happy with it but im happy that we get to spend time together.
New years was normal drinking and the like. T went with me to a party at a friends house. Good times.
Sat after New Years T and I went to my cousins wedding. Of which my brother brought his girlfriend. We are the oddest site at our table. Me and my brother and our two white dates. Granted the whole restaurant is full of asian people and the two white girls are at the same table, of which they are dates of brothers. It was mildly amusing. We did get alot of stares. But hey we had the prettiest dates :)
Now im back at work. Need to go home and move myself out of my old apartment and into my new one. I dont like moving. But it has to be done.
Anyways not very intersting on the stories but a synopsis for sure.
