    I need happy thoughts, prayers, well wishes, whatever

    I just applied for a sweet job today doing content management and copy writing for a bicycle e-commerce site. I was so nervous about the application that it took me three days for fear of making an error! It worries when me applications are really relaxed because I want to show my personality, but I'm afraid of coming off too casual.

    So think happy thoughts, pray to whatever deity hears you, wish me luck, etc. I need this job or I go packing back home!

    Ah, Smurf! What an exciting opportunity!

    Sending glittery jittery amazing butterflies so you will shine and be noticed; gently arcing big blue and green butterflies to bring you peace and calm so you feel comfortable in your own skin, and a few delightful orange butterflies to remind you of all you have to offer so your confidence radiates.

    If it is meant to be, you'll get it!

    Hugs and butterflies,
    ~T~
    The butterflies are within you.

    Best of luck!

    But you should have a job writing something too, you have a flair for words. Go find it

    Thinking happy thoughts for you, Smurf. I agree - you write well, and copy editing is not a bad segueway into a writing career.
    I can do five more miles.

    Well I'm about a week into the pet shop gig and I'm loving it. It's tons of information to absorb but it's not bad when it's something you care about.

    That, is a minor detail compared to the fact that I got a call from the bike/writing people today. They want me to come in and interview! Hurray! Now I just have to find time! Ack! I am so excited! This would be a dream come true, I think. *bounce*bounce*

    Smurf, have you had the interview? How did it go? Still sending job butterflies your way. They're doing whatever they can to help....

    Hugs, too,

    My very good wishes to you! Relax. Be casual and personable. Writing ability is a small part of it. Heart is what counts especially when writing about something so loveable as bikes.

    Good luck! It sounds like it's your turn to have some good things coming your way soon, from some of your other posts. Waiting for that job offer is a tough spot to be in, so hang in there. An observation from a recent job hunter: This company seems to be moving a little slow with their decisions, so don't get discouraged if you don't hear from them right away.
