    After a lot of waiting, interviewing, testing and nail biting I got offered the job at Smart E-Tailing as a copy writer or something like that. This last week was quite the roller coaster with the Tour De Cure (high), Hank getting hurt (low), and now the job offer (really big high).

    I start the 15th of September so it's going to be a long two weeks. It's already on my gmail calendar as "The Greatest Job Ever Starts Today!"

    Wow, all I can say is wow. Everything really does happen for a reason.
