I had my interview with the company that won the contract my old company had thought they won.
I also got a job offer. (Whoo Hoo!)
Money's OK, it about makes up for the benefits I'm losing.
I hope this company can keep the contract. I love the job, but I hate this changing employers thing.
My husband really hates the down time between contracts.
Here's to work.

VP Debate
I watched Thursday's debate. I thought Gov Palin was wonderful. I did notice that she avoided some of the questions, or answered only the part she wanted to answer.
Senator Biden, on the other hand lied 10-14 times (or was factually wrong), depending on who you listened to after the debate. A big one was you won't pay anymore in taxes that we did under President Reagan. He seems to forget the top rate then was 28% not 39%. I suppose he meant to say Pres Clinton, because 39% was the top rate then. But to people who voted for Reagan and remember the prosperity in the 80's invoking Reagan's name makes people pay attention.
I did decide that few people would change their vote based on this debate, but it did motivate me to get a McCain/Palin sign for my yard.
I'm pleased to say that it has been there for 2 days now and was still there the last time I looked.
When I picked up my sign someone else at the GOP HQ mentioned she needed a replacement sign 'cause hers had gone missing. I guess free speech means tear down the signs of people you don't like.
The house across the street from me has Democrat Party signs, so I hope I don't lose mine. I like having a contrast of the different people running for office.
