early afternoon. phone rings. nice young woman from local consulting company responding regarding an email i had sent her about a position she had on offer. we chat for quite some time about my background and experience. she suggests moving forward quickly as her client has begun interviewing today. i relate that i am free tomorrow and we promptly arrange an interview at a mutually-agreeable time. fingers crossed.

late afternoon. completing the first book in the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy series after spending a significant portion of last night enjoying the 1981 bbc series on dvd. flicking on the teevee, i notice that THUNDERBIRDS is on techtv. this is the same channel that broadcasts max headroom. awesome. there is something about the very specific look of these marionnette shows that appeals to me immensely. i observed that one of the characters, gordon, looks disturbingly like my best friend's boyfriend. puppets shouldn't look that much like real people. eerie.
