Still searching, but very positive today.

I made a list of all the jobs in the paper last night for applying to this week, and applied to a company last night and one today. I did research on three other jobs, talking to my supa-secret contacts. And! I got a call back from a blind box that I sent my hardcopy resume to last week, (the posting in the WI State Journal titled itself ‘Great Job’ which I find to be positive). So, I have a brief phone interview for that on wed.

There is a job faire at the Alliant Center tommorrow, so I made a whole bunch of copies of my resume to hand out there. I haven’t had great success with job faires in the past, working in the fairly specialized field of Web development and design, but it never hurts to get more eyes on the resume, and meet some people in person. Resumes are like business cards, they do no good unless you hand them out.

It is very windy outside, though pleasant in temperature. The trees have begun to turn colors, and the geese are back paddling around the little man made pond near our house, getting ready for their long trip south.

In honor of National Talk like a pirate day, I bring you Gimlet! A Pirate Dwarf!!He is very fond of gold, so fond he had them put extra gold into his custom made armor. He has been known to dive into freshly killed piles of beasties to search for that elusive winking single piece of gold.ARRR!~~~~while most dwarves do anything they can to avoid the sea,Gimlet has picked up a rather cursed saber, which has increased his love of the water, and enhanced, of course, his love of gold.

You must listen to one of my favorite pirate songs! SCURRRVY!!!

ok, feeling a bit better. I’ve applied for about 6 jobs this week, and have another couple I’ll following and hope to have ready next week. On sunday, there is always the new jobs section in the newspaper.

I do have a variety of skills, from web to promotions and marketing, and going through these applications is a bit like looking at yourself through a prism. In an alternate reality, who would I be?

I actually took a trip to the post office today, and hardcopy mailed three things out. Bon Voyage, hopeful resumes.

I’ve been going to all these interviews, and people keep wanting a portfolio from me, so here is my updated portfolio site.

Please give it a look and give me any feedback you wish. Also, if you feel I’m missing a piece that should appear there, please tell me which one.

I got pretty much everything working the way I wanted, and might make some css tweaks next week, but I think it’s pretty good to go, and more than ok for submission to prospective jobs.
