Tuesday 7/21 I had a job interview in Seattle, the big city that I had only been to once since I made a big move from Arizona to Washington state last fall.

I was a RockStar in Phoenix. When I lost a job, I had another one by the next week. I worked in the mortgage business so it was pretty standard for companies to close and new ones to pop up down the street. That was prior to the big meltdown that has taken a huge toll on all of us over the past couple years...but that's another story.
