I lined up two more interviews today, so I now have a total of three for this week. One on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. The one on Wednesday pays the least BUT it is within a mile of where I live AND after 3 months you get benefits. Plus, it doesn't sound like very difficult work (market research company.)
I got a strange call from Chase today telling me that the government had tried to make a deposit in my account but they needed more info. OMW - I just thought of something .. I wonder if it was a new scam. With all these people being laid off and getting debit cards for UI benefits .. Ugh! I didn't write down the number they gave in the phone call because I wasn't ready to take a number down - so I called back the number on my phone. And I GAVE them my debit card number! Oy vey! I really hope I didn't do something really stupid.
I really hope that it was legit - but I thought it was strange that I'd be getting my UI money so quickly, since I'd only requested payment at 10 a.m., and I got the call about 3pm. And of course all the tele-serve numbers don't go to a real person!!!

I was really sad to read about the passing of Paul Harvey today. The Rest Of The Story was always such a neat thing to listen to on the radio - he was so funny and thoughtful. The passing of true legend.

I spent some more time today looking into becoming a librarian. The more I'm reading about it, the more sure that I am headed in the right direction.

Last night I called my best friend T to ask her if her hubby would be willing to tutor me in a Math refresher for the GRE. He is a math genius. I offered to barter babysitting for tutoring. (Of course, I'd babysit their kids for free anytime.)
It just so happened that they had planned on calling me to see if I'd watch the kids last night - but little N had been sick, so they weren't sure if they should go out. I offered that I'd be more than happy to babysit.
So, I spent a couple hours reading stories, playing the kid version of Monopoly, and generally being silly with two of my favorite munchkins.

I stopped at the library tonight to get some GRE materials, but they didn't have any. I can't search their online catalog because it's having some weird malfunction right now - but will do tomorrow.
