Overnight with niece

This week I had 2 job interviews with 2 Younkers stores, in different malls. The first one went badly with the people not knowing I was coming and I had to wait 15 minutes for them to obtain a person to interview me. Then she read questions off a sheet instead asking questions from my apllication, and I got impression they already hired somebody. But then it would be rude to cancel an interview. The 2nd went better, though the people still didn't know I was coming, but found someone faster to interview me. She read my application and asked more questions about me and my make-up knowledge (what's the difference between camera and everyday make-up was one question). She got excited that I just moved here from Burbank. No, I said, I went to school in Burbank and came back. I've lived in Iowa my whole life, except the two college years in Wisconsin. One problem will be that the full-time position I thought I was applying for is really part-time. Meaning they have to work around my other schedule. I just got a letter from the 1st interview written and mailed the day after the interview stating they are inable to hire me, hence hired someone else. We shall see if the 2nd person responds. Usually people respond when they want to hire you, not discard you. Got a money order for my pics and sent it to the teacher. Hopefully they come soon so I can apply for better jobs.

Picked up my niece from daycare and she is now is the bedroom sleeping. I made her put on her Barbie clothes cuz she is a big girl and big girls put on their own Barbie clothes. She cried that she couldn't do it, it's hard (ok sometimes Barbie's butt was a little big for her tight dress so I helped pull), and had trouble with the velco snapping, but she needs to learn to do this and won't learn if I'm always doing it for her. We watched a rented movie from her house, but it kept pausing and skipping so she wanted a different moive. I explained DVD's can be like that. She played with the cats calling them baby like me. We read stories and Precious had to get under the blanket to niece's dismay. Well, email when I have more to email about.
