I applied for another job yesterday, at the commissary.  The position was for a cake decorator, the money's not that great, but the hours....10 am to 4pm, monday thru friday.  Perfect hours for me!

So, I went off for the interview this morning.  Turns out there's more to it that just decorating cakes...they've just set up a frozen yoghurt/soft serve ice cream booth and I'd be in charge of that, and then they'd also want me to be responsible for the bulk candy bins.

The lady that interviwed me was smaller than mself (and that's pretty damn small, ya'll!) and she talked a LOT.  But, she seemed really nice and friendly, easy to get along with, and she basically offered me the job.  She said she had one more person to interview, but that I was the perfect applicant...I live on base, I'm dependable, honest, and she liked me to boot.  So, she said she'd call me back this afternoon to verify that I had in fact go the job and to let me know what time to show up at tomorrow so she could train me.

It's not exactly what I had envisoned myself doing.  But, it's a job, and it pays.  I'll be bringing home about $400 every 2 weeks...not bad, really.  It'll help pay for my school books, it'll help pay for Christmas gifts, and once the holidays are over I'll have some pocket money.  More importantly, it'll get me out of the house and interacting with other grown-ups...and that's really important, especially with D scheduled to deploy in a couple of months. 

So, now all I have to do is wait for the call that makes it official......
