Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone for their kind comments on my last entry. They went a long way in cheering me up. I was feeling really down last night and just felt about as worthwhile as a puddle of vomit on the floor. So yeah... Thanks, guys. (hugs) It means a lot to me when you guys support me like that. :)

So now I have some good news and bad news. To start with the bad really quick, I'm bleeding more than before and actually found blood in my stool today. >.< Not good. Doctor appointment is soon though, so I'm trying not to get worried.

Now for the great news. This morning I was awakened prematurely to the phone ringing. I'm really glad it was in my room and not in the living room, otherwise I probably wouldn't have bothered getting up to answer it. But, since it was in my room, I made myself roll over to check the caller ID.

It said Wal*Mart.

That woke me right up. I answered the phone and a woman, once confirming it was me, asked if I was still interested in working there. You can guess my response. :D

She asked if I could come in for an interview tomorrow at nine in the morning and I agreed. I was so excited I couldn't go back to sleep. About an hour later though, I suddenly remembered that I've applied at two separate stores. I'm glad I went back and checked the number, because the store that's asking for me is the one up where my grandma lives.

That's like, a little over an hour away. So damn, I would have had to wake up early!

And yes, I am speaking in the past tense. The woman called me back later and apologized- she'd forgotten that tomorrow starts the holiday weekend so some people, including the interviewer, wouldn't be there. So we rescheduled for Tuesday at the same time. This at least gives me time to prepare, though.

I really hope I get this job. It's nice to at least be hearing something from them, though! Don't feel so ignored now. Kinda funny though- I apply to my local store like every month and then a few weeks ago I randomly decided to send an application to the other one. And what do ya know? Victory!

Another note- the lady on the phone seemed so much nicer than the people I talk to when I bug the store down the street for an update on my application. She was very polite and it was a friendly exchange. Encourages me muchly. ^_^
