I left my cell phone in the bathroom at work.

And didn't realize til 45 minutes later.

Then I went back and couldn't find it.

*sob*

There was only one other time (4 years ago) I've ever "lost" my cell phone and it was in the car.

And after asking around a little, Sadie suggesting asking Nemi.

Nemi had it. Coca put it on her desk. *love*

What would I do without my cell phone?!?!

Last night I got to hang out with Angelica for a little while. We went to the mall to eat and had just enough time to go into JC Penney's. I thought I'd see if there was anything that I could get 'cause they're having a sale (see post about my weakness for a sale). I tried on a couple of things, but nothing fit right. I know I've complained before that all the regular sizes are too small, but the "plus" sizes are often too big. (Which is why I always spend so much when I go to Lane Bryant -- 'cause their stuff actually fits me properly.) But, yes, I'm sure you don't care about all that.

The amazing part was that while I didn't buy anything, Angelica ended up getting two pairs of jeans AND two button-down shirts for work. LOLOL! Heehee! It's fun when that happens 'cause usually it's the other way around: I spend lotsa money while she watches and laughs with her still-full wallet!

Liz is coming home today, yay! Her plane lands at around 5:15pm, so I won't be there to pick her up 'cause my interview is at 5:30. And I think she might be going practically from the airport to her friend's sleepover/party thing. So I won't really be able to see her. But it'll still be nice to know she's back in NY. You know, it's odd, but I think I missed her more these last 6 days than I did when she was gone for 10 to Italy. I think it might have to do with the fact that I talked/LJ-commented with her more often than I did when she was in Italy. I dunno.

You know, I'm never nervous for interviews until the day of. It really sucks.

Some background info:
  1. My contract expires July 29th.
  2. I'm taking over admin assistant duties because the woman who was the Admin Asst to the Executive Coordinator has left. So, I am the go-between in the office. For example, if someone needs his signature, they'll give me the document, and I give it to Frank (or put it on his desk, etc.). When he signs it, he puts it in his out tray and I redistribute it back to the person who requested the signature.

So, about an hour ago, the Human Resources Assistant came over to me to give me something for Frank to sign. A contract. My contract. And I was kind of like, "Umm... the contract is already signed." She said, "It is?" And I said something like, "Yeah, a long time ago/when I started working." And she said, "Until the end of August?" And then my eyes bugged out.

Apparently, they extended my contract without asking or saying anything to me. Not that it's binding, because I haven't signed it, but usually they ask first. And I can't even ask Cecilia, the HR Coordinator, because she's on leave until August 9th.

And we all know about my sending out resumes and stuff. And scheduling interviews. Aarrgh. Now what?! I asked her to hold onto it until tomorrow so I could think about it because it totally came out of left field. Forget left field. It came from outer space!

Basically, my dilemma is: Do I extend my contract and possibly lose a potential steady job somewhere else? Do I not extend my contract and maybe not get any of the jobs I interview for and then lose out on the money I could've made for the month of August? alndsflafdlsjk! This is so unfair.

I'm going to go on these interviews I have. (Actually, I'm not putting to much into the real estate one, I don't have much faith in my ability to sell real estate... then again, I just remembered, it's renting apartments in NYC, not selling houses, so it just might be easier...) I'm going to see if they can wait for an answer until early next week, so I have some idea of the possibility of me getting one of these jobs. I know there's no guarantee, but it would have been nice to have been informed a bit earlier, dammit.

*rage*
