I must be dreaming...

So. I have a phone interview with Geico in 45 minutes. They have a big call center here, and I applied 2-3 weeks ago... I don't even remember when.

Anyway, you'd figure I'd have dreams about that last night. Or my English test on Saturday... Not so. What do I end up dreaming about? Blogging. Yup. I'm officially either addicted, crazy, need a life, or D, All of the above. (Seriously, I think it's D.)

I saw these adorable wallets yesterday (made by db clay), from the Treehugger website. Seriously, I want one. They're made from a material called Tope, which is an eco-friendly replacement for leather and vinyl etc. I meant to post about them yesterday, because they are oh, so adorable, but I didn't get around to it. Just look at them! (Click it, it'll go bigger, or just click that dbclay link to visit their site.)


So... Now you're asking... why did Shelley dream about wallets?

Well. It wasn't just about the wallets, and forgetting to blog them. I dreamed that Natalie had beat me to it. I dreamed that not only did she blog about it, but she got one! And I was so super jealous in my dream! You would not believe how real it seemed. I think my subconscious picked Natalie because she always looks so put together, and that circle necklace is totally fabulous and trendy. I subconsciously figured she needs this wallet I guess. I'd like one... but I am still a bit happy with my Sugar Daddy wallet. ;) Besides, I'd rather pay a dollar for my wallet and get some bonus candy with it anyway... The dbclay wallets start at $48 bucks, and I just can't fathom that. BUT they are environmentally friendly... and for that reason, I guess its a plus.

Anyway... 3 days till Boston! 30 minutes till my Geico phone interview! I'll post an update later. As if anything could keep me away! ;)

10:10am Update: The phone interview went ok. My heart just isn't quite into being an Insurance representative though. I really REALLY want that IT Position. :( I do love Geico as a company though. (HATE the cavemen, but I love the gecko). We shall see. *sigh*

10:44am Update: I just called my recruiter for that Luvata job, and they pretty much said I'm not a good fit for the job, because eventually (ages down the road from now) I'll be wanting to live with my husband again in Canada... a whole whopping hour away. And since this position is an on call position 24x7, I'd maybe (maybe once a month they said) have to come in on the weekend, and do some support. Not that I couldn't come in from Canada... Heck, I'm not even allowed into Canada right now, I don't know why that's such a big deal. :( Man this sucks. I really really wanted that job! Back to the drawing board I guess. :(

Ooh la la!

You can now go green in the bedroom! Bamboo fiber sheets! I want some! Apparently they're super comfy, keep you warm when its cold, and cool when its warm... We could really use some new sheets too. Lookie:


They're available at Bed Bath & Beyond. I think we have them in Canada... Maybe 20 minutes from me? if not its a Linnen's and Things. *sigh*

Here's what treehugger.com (very cool site btw) says about 'em:
"Bamboo fiber has officially entered the mainstream. Bed, Bath and Beyond now offers these sheets made of 100% bamboo fiber with a thread count of 230. Bamboo is one of the softest fabrics in the world — softer than cotton but with a drape like silk. It comes from a rapidly renewable resource that doesn't require pesticides to grow. The sheet sets cost between $39-$99."

I likey. Plus, we need new sheets. We only have one set of sheets, and it sucks when I'm super lazy and don't want to make the bed the same day I wash the sheets. (Like Saturday... I washed the sheets... Saturday night, i slept in the comforter alone, with the clean sheets piled at the foot of the bed... Sunday night I slept on the couch... and last night I finally made the friggin bed).

Anyway. I likey. I wanty.
