Job Interview & Nicotine

I had a job interview today. I used Yahoo Maps to help me figure out where I was going. I still don't know all of Milwaukee that well. I just moved up here about two years ago. Basically, what happened was Yahoo Maps told me to stay on I-894 when I should have taken the Beloit exit. So I ended up about a half hour out of my way. Thankfully, the place I was going to for the job interview was extremely understanding of this and told me not to worry about it. They gave me really good directions and I was only 20 minutes late to the interview.

The interview went very well. They seem really interested in hiring me. Let's hope that they do! The supervisor told me to call her on Monday, in the afternoon, to check on the progress and see if they wanted to schedule a 2nd interview.

I also have another company that is interested in having an interview with me. So at least if this one doesn't work out (which I honestly hope it does) I have other options.

I asked my Master if I could quit smoking and He say I could. But about 5 hours after my last cig I had a nic fit which triggered a bad panic attack. It wasn't the worst panic attack I've ever had but it wasn't the mildest either. So I talked to Master about it and He told me the best course of action would be to slowly but surely wean myself off of cigs. So I am going to cut back, then cut way back, and then quit. He is being very supportive of this decision. And told me that just because I can't just quit "cold turkey" that it makes me weak or anything. I just need to take it slowly. Kind of like weaning yourself off of medication so your body doesn't have a bad reaction from suddenly being without something it has grown used to.
