Moving soon...?

I've applied for so many jobs in Des Moines that I've lost count.  I mentioned to Jake how the last time I was really gung-ho about applying for jobs that I had a spreadsheet about which jobs I had applied for and when.  That could have been a good idea this time around so that I could follow up with people, but I kind of just don't care.  If they call me, then awesome.  If they don't and I forget about those jobs, then awesome.  I don't want to stress myself out about the ones that don't care about me.  I've already had multiple phone interviews and had multiple offers.  Just not good ones.  It does make me feel good though when I get offers within 10 minutes of the interview.  Too bad it's not for something I really want.

I also very much enjoy having phone interviews.  I mean, seriously.  How convenient is it that I live in a different state and can't therefore get dressed up and get all nervous and come in for an interview?  Yesterday I hadn't showered or put any makeup at all and was sitting at my computer while we chatted.  I had my resume right in front of me and a paper with answers to typical questions they may ask.  Kind of takes off pressure when I can just look down at the paper which has all of the answers I typically forget.  Boo ya.

I just hope that means that I will get a real offer and a real job soon so that we can move. :)  With me quitting a couple of jobs recently and needing to start the school year job, I'd really like to just not start and move to Des Moines instead.  Gonna be tricky though since I start my school year job tomorrow. Ha!  Well, hopefully soon... we technically have until mid-December before I start to wig for sure.
