job search, beta testers?
All the bids I've submitted so far for potential freelance have been rejected, but I did get a new query from one of my recruiters for a contract job, so maybe I'll luck out there. I have been super productive, though. I did a bunch of work in photoshop and illustrator while I was at the library on Tuesday, after I had spent the morning re- ( Read more... ) -

Day 5 of not crashing while in Photoshop, yay! Still working on getting all the applications I want installed, but I have the most important ones done. I've also spent the last few weeks changing/updating/adding passwords to LastPass. My capacity for unique and difficult password retention has come and gone so this plug-in is such a relief ( Read more... ) -

I've had a busy week, despite the fact that I haven't had a reply regarding interview #3. The freelance job I got this week was supposed to be for only three days, but I'm getting paid for at least two additional days because the client realized they underestimated the time required to complete all the content changes they wanted. I went in to ( Read more... ) -

Tomorrow, I should find out if I passed interview 3 from the recruiter. Since I ended up not needing this weekend for interview prep, I did a bit of art director work, used a discount ticket to see Godzilla, and tried a new ruby tutorial book. I opted out of the today's ruby study group, because I'm still trying to get a handle on the environment. ( Read more... ) -

I saw this on counteragent's lj and thought I'd do a quick list.
That Crucial Movie meme...Everyone should post their ten most CRUCIAL CRUCIAL CRUCIAL-ASS movies, like the movies that explain everything about yourselves in your current incarnations (not necessarily your ten favorite movies but the ten movies that you, as a person existing currently, feel ( Read more... ) -

I thought I had a job for a split second on Tuesday, but it turned out it was just miscommunication between three recruiters at one of the agencies I signed up with. A similar communication issue happened on Tuesday at another agency I use. Maybe the latter will be able to book an interview for me, so we'll see. I've also been answering direct ads ( Read more... ) -

I finished bioshock 2 the other evening, and I've been replaying through the levels of Portal 2 when I take my work breaks. There's a battle with the computer that I didn't make it past, so I'm going back and replaying all the levels in preparation to try again. Also, I have some ideas for some Portal fan art, but I'm wondering if I'll be able to ( Read more... ) -

I got a call late yesterday afternoon that one of my recruiters scheduled me for an interview on Friday! It's for a long-term freelance job. I spent a few hours at the library today working on my sales pitch while waiting to get the name and address of the company. I'm done, so I may even have time to draw this evening. I did another of Glen Keane' ( Read more... )
