So I had this job interview Wednesday. I was told it would be about 8 hours of job shadowing, "and this is Minnesota so you should dress for the weather because you'll be in and out, buisness casual." Which would've been a really great concept were I to be in and out. I was out. It turned out the job was basically door-to-door salesmen. I walked outside, in a blizzard, for 8 hours. Both of my feet had giant blisters on them and for whatever reason, my foot started hurting, rather seriously, about half an hour in. The dude I was shadowing, as lame as he was, did show concern by asking me if it still hurted when I started limping. (positive emoticon) Then my entire lower legs, both of them, started screaming in pain. We had another two hours. When I got back to the office I told him I wasn't interested. Wish he had asked previously. Him and his co-workers were boring and stupid, by the way. Frat boys who didn't waste time getting fat.

On the ride home I was talking with my friend who's moving to Austin. He says he needs to hire someone to work under him at this new job and that I would be good at the job, plus I'd enjoy it. There are more details, of course, but I'm thinking of doing it. So, I might move to Austin. Thoughts?

Actually, I've heard its a great place. Really unexpectedly happening, like the Northwest used to be a decade ago. Katie Dunn went there and spoke highly of it, you should ask her about it.
