Journal Rudy Rodarte's Journal: Weekend of 23-Aug-2003 and other stuff

Next job?
I was told that the results for the test I took in May could take up to 2 months to get back to me. It has been 3 months to the day, and no word. I did call them up, and they stated that I wasn't the only one that had not gotten the results back. It's good and bad at the same time. Good, since I still am a candidate. Bad, since It's been so long. But hey, no news is good news, right?
This weekend, the guy that sits next to me spoke with a 12 year veteran of the employer I want to work for. The veteran asked where I was in the process, and my buddy told him that I was waiting for the 2nd round of interviews. He said that it was good that I was this far into the process. Its just the waiting thats killing me!
Fun Weekend
This weekend, my sister and I went to Fiesta Texas. It was a blast. Since the main season is over, there weren't many people there. Plus, we got there at 10:00, so there were only a hand full of people there. We rode most of the big rides. Some of them twice, since very few people were in line once the ride was over. My fave was the Superman Krypton coster. At one point, the sun was rising over the horizon and we were turned upside-down and went back and forth. It was just a very beautiful experience.
It started raining around 13:00, so we made our way to the water park. There, we rode in all the chutes and visited Pirata Morgan's house. We also swam in the wave pool. My sister had a life jacket on, so she was just relaxing. Meanwhile, the waves were kicking my butt! I got too tired, and had to swim back to more shallow water. Well, it was still fun!
Lunch with folks
My parents came down to visit my mother-in-law. She is going for dialysis today, down in San Antonio. She is in need of a kidney transplant as well. Not good times for her. My wife and her aunt have gone down to get tested for compatibility, but my mother-in-law has not. So, as soon as my mother-in-law gets some tests done, we can see if my wife or her aunt can donate a kidney to my mother-in-law.
Well, lunch was cool. We ate in this little place. The food was cheap, but good. After that, we went to Best Buy to pick up an MSN CD for my sister. I reinstalled her OS this week, since her system was without a firewall and probably had a ton of viruses and other nasties on it.
Summer Slam 2003
My thoughts:
Coach turns heel?? So now we have a heel announcer ala Bobby the Brain / Los Rudos announcer from AAA
I figured Zach wouldn't be on Summer Slam after that beat down.
They protected HHH during the whole match. Pretty cheap, but I guess now its on at the next PPV. We'll see what happens tonight.
