So after my "I f'ing hate Bridgman" rant yesterday, I got an email from USAjobs about new postings at my skill level. Immigration is hiring and needs people immediately in a number of offices (most of which are in the south!). So I signed up to take the Adjudications Officer preliminary test. It's two weeks from now, I'll probably get antsy waiting. The test looks like it's going to be kind of like the SAT, judging by the study guide I printed off last night. I have a good handle on logic and grammar so hopefully that will go well.

Went to the grocery store in the next town over (Martin's in Stevensville, in case you're wondering Devin), since the one here has a limited selection of cereals I like. Still could not find honey Chex, but they do have strawberry Chex, which is new and thus worth trying. This store also sells sushi! I bought a pack of pre-done California rolls w/ crab. They have some sushi ingredients sold separately, though I didn't look too close to see if they had seaweed wraps. But sushi makes me happy, so yay! They also sell imported lemon beer (from Germany of course), which is the only way I will drink beer.

Thinking about going to MichiganWorks! today for more advice. That is, if it stops hailing.

I have a feeling that I sometimes come across as a bit...coarse.. online. I don't mean it. Things sound much different in my head than the way people read them, I think.

It's now snowing. I decided to venture out when it was clear, but that only lasted about 5 minutes. Made it to MichiganWorks!. I got there and she asked me for my card. I was like "what card?" considering they just told me to come on in when I called on Monday. So the lady got me a card and put me in the system...then just left me. She pointed me to a list of employment websites then spent the rest of the time on the phone. I was like "what am I supposed to do? I come in here for search advice and you're not going to help me at all?" I took the list and went home. Weather was getting nasty anyway.

....and now it seems to be clearing up. Crazy Michigan weather.
