Progress and Restlessness

I had a job interview yesterday and another today. Both are for sales jobs, which is good for my competitive nature but perhaps not so great in a sinking economy. Both are paid commissions only, which means if I can't sell one month, I can't pay my rent. Hmm.... not so cool. What is cool is that one of them also offers a company car, crackberry and laptop. Oh to be a high roller once more! Fingers crossed on the next phase of the interview. In the mean time, I'm still looking. My resume is pretty killer, but so is the economy, so it's an intense match! Who will come out on top? Will it be the International Lady of Mystery, with her unparalleled powers of seduction and intellect? Or the American Recession, with its fat government-business bailouts and tumbling stock market? Could be almost as exciting as the Del la Hoya Pacquiao! Well I'll give you a little preview on the winner of this match-up; It's gonna have to be me! Why? Because at the moment, I have my eye on a flight to Central America, where my uncle owns some property. I'm dying for an opportunity to practice my Spanish in a culturally relevant situation again. What do I mean by culturally relevant? I mean sexy, sandy beaches in weather that will make me wonder what the hell I'm doing in Boston!! Mexico was great, but I've got my sights set on a south-bound expansion of my horizons. Ohhhh yeahhhh.
