How do you prepare for a job you know nothing about? And how do you learn about said job when it’s security sensitive? lol Apparently you look up people who work there on facebook and send them messages. :-) At least that’s what I did today. I don’t know a lot more, but something is better than nothing. I also called HR today to clarify the application process and put feelers out with career services. Now I’m reading a book on the history of the space shuttle to gleen any information I can from it. Unfortunately it’s bedtime so I’m only reading another page or so. But it’s a start.

I wonder…how many times you will choose going through the same routine, in terms of your life and your jobs, before you catch on that emotional issues and adjustments are required, in order to make yourself into the person to live your dreams?

That’s what I’ve been doing. Otherwise I wouldn’t have opened up to the opportunity this presents as it is in another city in an even worse climate than here. lol I’ve tried to force something to work out here. Since it hasn’t despite my very best efforts I had to accept that what I had decided wasn’t in my best interest. And I knew that in many ways, but had decided other aspects were more important. But they weren’t. I haven’t been this excited about a job…ever. I’m reaching for a dream I’ve held since childhood. It’s something I can absolutely do, so there is no reason for me not to reach for it. Since I made the serious decision to reach for this, so much has fallen into place it’s awesome. I have no more worries, except how long I have to wait for an interview call. Until then I’m going to work hard at my job so I can leave with a clear conscience. And then prepare for even more heat and humidity.
