MoMark, I'm guessing that the whole lounging-around-all-day-in-your-underwear thing didn't come up in the interview?
No, never got around to that part, though I can honestly say that I did change it after having showered
They'd never guess I'm a redheaded bum who roams the house in my 15 year old underwear with greasy hair and untamed whiskers!
I actually clean up very nicely with a little soap and water, a good shave, and a comb !!!
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

To us, you are, MoMark. :-)
Anyway...I've always said that if something's meant to be, it'll come along smoothly. If obstacles are thrown in your path, somebody's trying to tell you it's not supposed to happen. Best of luck. Let us know how it works out.
MoMark, I really like u too........!!! And your posts!!! So interesting, have u ever thought about writing for a living? Thank you for telling me about the insurance, I just turned 50 and I think it is law now, not sure! that after your insurance runs out they have to offer Cobra. It is expensive, but how do u NOT have insurance. Look at what would have happened if u hadn't had it when u had pneumonia. That would be my luck. U are right about the other things too I have to consider. It is a real gamble isn't it? Gambling that u are going to be healthy? When u know anything can happen!
Wonderful! I hope things work out for you. I am not one to get nervous on job interviews either. If I were a single mom with 5 kids, maybe I would, but it's just myself and my husband, so there's not as much pressure.
My worst job interview: got lost in a small city trying to find the office, so I was late. I did stop to call them and tell them I was lost and therefore would be late. It was super hot out, around noon, and I had not yet eaten or drank all day. The middle part of the interview involved going out of the office to a patient's home. The patient lived in the ghetto and had no air conditioning. At the end of the visit at the patient's home, I fainted! I came to a moment later and they gave me some water. I was so irritated - it was a good job and I was sure I'd completely blown things. As the interviewer drove us back to the office, I told her I was a good social worker, I was really interested in the job, and I hoped the fact I'd foolishly not had anything to eat or drink that day had ruined my chances. I didn't say it in a pitiful way - I said it with irritation (at myself!) in my voice. Wouldn't you know, they offered me the job a few days later. The interviewer - soon to be boss was impressed by my confidence. I'm still there almost 4 years later, it is a good job, and I do it well.
