Three hours, three buses, several blocks of walking (in a skirt and heels) in areas of the city that don't believe in shovelling sidewalks, and an hour and a half long interview later, I'm home. And somewhat warm. Though only somewhat. And my suspicions have been proven--I am a fairly decent typist. I type 70 wpm, with a 2% error rate, and for data entry, my rate is about 7200 keystrokes per hour, with no errors. Woo me. :o) But at least now I'm registered with a temp agency, so let's pray that the jobs start rolling in. Right. Let's pray that I get enough work every month to pay my rent and bills. I would like that a lot.

And now I have about 1/2 hour before I have to go to class. What to do...? Not long enough to sleep. I've already eaten lunch... if I did what I really want to, I'd crawl into my nice warm waterbed and sleep through the class. But I missed psych on Thursday. Bleah. Ah well... Maybe I'll lay down, and if I fall asleep, oh well, too bad! ;o) If not... I'll go? That's not very responsible of me. But right now, I'm still too cold from walking outside in the -20 degree weather (Celsuis) in a skirt and nylons. And heels. It takes a while to warm up from something like that. I need a nice, long, hot shower. You know when you're chilled to the bone, and you just can't seem to get warm, no matter how hard you try? Yah. :o)
