judecorpSometimes no matter what, you just have to spend a little bit of money. We went to Marshall's so I could find something to wear to the wedding this weekend. Since we're going to be in pictures, we have to kind of look decent, right? I tried on some /dresses/ (HA HA HA) but ended up buying a shirt that I will wear with some slacks or something. Or maybe I just like to say slacks. Slacks slacks slacks. Jen wanted to go to the mall to look for a shirt, too, so we ended up heading down there. She liked this one shirt but ended up getting a shirt and jacket on clearance for less than the original shirt. Yay! We then bought a set of king size sheets since we will be getting our king size space bed soon and had no sheets.
Of course, then we went to Linens 'n Things because I thought my brother and Gretchen were registered there, but I was mistaken. So we ended up buying 2 king size pillows and a bed-in-a-bag. Now all we need is the freaking BED and we can build the platform. Wheeeeee.
No, we shouldn't be spending the money right now but we needed to put /something/ on our bodies and on the bed. Right? RIGHT??!?!
I have gone from having a lot of time to being all booked up. I have an interview/test with one temp agency tomorrow and another interview/test on Thursday. Thursday I also have a little phone interview type thing with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rebasayre's friend. Thursday night we're sleeping at my grandparents' house so we can leave from there to go to the airport. (It shall be interesting to see how that goes. Jen and I have never slept at my grandparents'.) We'll be in Missouri all weekend. Monday morning I have a second interview with the early intervention program in Dorchester. Tuesday I have a first interview with an agency in Malden (for a job I don't want but will take). And Jen had a pretty promising interview today and has a second interview with them tomorrow!
So it looks like we should be employed soon. YAY! *crosses fingers*
