I have a job!

Don't know where, or precisely what I will be doing. Presumably, pull-out services somewhere in Brooklyn. But I start on the 6th.

Which is a good thing.

And I also called Verizon to get my phone line moved. I think I will not have them install a jack for me. Either I will ask [livejournal.com profile] mysticengineer to help me install a new jack myself, or I will just buy a reeeeally long, white phone cord and snake it around the wall into my bedroom. It just isn't worth the $169 that they would want to charge me for sending a fat guy who sweats a lot and says he is having trouble breathing just from the exertion of stapling in the phone wires. Plus, I would have to wait around my apartment for the guy.

Anyway, my phone will be moved to the new number as of Wednesday.

But I am getting ahead of myself - need to move first. (Monday - wanna help?)

Still, it is great when everything starts coming together.

Also, last night, my sister called, and was asking about the job. When I asked why she was calling, she explained that my mom wanted to know if I had heard yet, but didn't want to bother me. For some reason, [livejournal.com profile] mbarr found this to be rather entertaining. As it turns out, though, this was a smart move on my mom's part - talking to her about it this morning (back when I didn't have a job yet) was much more stressful than talking to my sister.

Uh, I think you slipped with the username for your comment.
And of course I'll stand there being supportive (or laughing my head off, whichever seems more appropriate at the time).

Oops. Yeah, it's hard to keep track of who I'm logged in as. Thanks.
