So this is my last week of unemployment.

I GOT A JOB!!!

Not only did I get a job --- but after 6 months of searching and interviewing -- I am going to be making A LOT more then I have ever made before.

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON -- I don't like bumper stickers but if I had one that is what it would say. I didn't have many interviews over the past 6 months but when I let the sky-rise I knew that I had this one in the bag. They even offered me more than my asking spread (Generally 5K spread)! Can you believe it? Makes me realize I will be making much more if I can make this work.

One problem, I might have elaborated my expertise w/ excell... I know there is excel for dummies but is there a tutorial libraries offer? I can manage my way around but don't ask me about the formulas b/c I can NOT remember how to do that...
