i'm finally paypal-verified! i got to be this morning, and i thought i would have to wait 'til friday... i'll see if i can start my online project tomorrow after i got back from my interview. the one i cannot talk about yet...
the other night, hubby and i were watching tv when we heard a knock on the door. it was after 8pm, and we only had one other knock on our door since we moved into our home 11 months ago. hubby opened the door, and there stood this guy on our doorstep. he said he, and a group of people, were going from door to door around our neighborhood, collecting signatures, to petition our senators and congressman to draw up a resolution to address the problems of imports from other countries especially those from china. the petition is also for the protection of manufacturing jobs in the US, and to limit outsourcing.
while hubby was signing the petition, Dave, the petition guy, and i got to talk about other issues like the expanded SChip (which i also touched on in an earlier post) passed by both houses, and was promptly vetoed by bush. he gave us sample letters to send our reps to the senate and lower house, to urge them to override the veto. while discussing all these issues, of which i'm passionate about, Dave said i should go and work for them because they're looking for people "like" me, whatever that means. i was a bit surprised, and said i have to think about it because i have a project i will be working on, and i'm not sure how much time i should spend on it. and of course, there's also taking care of the household...
then early last night, i was in the shower when someone from Work America called, and left a message saying Dave told them about me, and would like to talk to me about what they're looking for, and if i would be interested. hmmm... that was fast, and inneresting...
i still haven't called, but i will tomorrow after i come back from the interview. until then, my time is my own...
