This was supposed to be so easy. Now my life feels stuck.

I cleaned the oven today. I cleaned the bathroom today.
I want to own that store. I mean, own it. Not own it, but like, own it.

Interview on Thursday at 11AM at Trader Joe’s! I’m excited!
Neither the condos in Belltown nor Pagliacci decided to hire me in spite of knockout interviews.
I’m feeling discouraged today.
