Another Interview

As promised, Idaho Health and Welfare called Monday morning to schedule an interview for the other Program Specialist position. The interview is Friday afternoon. I made it as early in the day as possible, so I would have less time to get nervous like last time. Since I have another interview, I took two suits to the dry cleaners.

Either dry cleaning is more expensive here, or I picked the expensive dry cleaners, $18 for one suit! The dry cleaner appeared to be staffed entirely with middle aged white women, so I don't think the high prices are due to regulation, I think it is due to not being owned and run by an Asian couple. Every dry cleaner I ever used in California was run by an Asian couple that appeared to be the entire staff. I need to find the cheap dry cleaner or buy things that don't need dry cleaning.

The price of cable/internet/phone is the same as California, what I got is cheaper, but it comes with less, less channels for TV and no long distance on the local phone. I have been unable to set up my email that comes with internet and have not received a response to my email about the problem, so they are not getting any points for service. This morning the internet is super slow.

Boise unveiled a memorial on September 11, 2010 for the 51 Idahoans who have died serving their country since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 at the old Ada County Courthouse. There also was a ceremony at the Idaho Fallen Firefighter Memorial at Riverside Park honoring the 343 firefighters that died at the World Trade Center.







I did not go to either, the pictures are from the Idaho Statesman newspaper and I read the article in the paper on Sunday. Again, I feel proud of my new state.

People from Idaho are called Idahoans, not Idahodehodehoians, like some would have it.
