Because Tracy asked, I thought I’d give an update regarding plans for Seattle.

Thus far, I’ve applied for six different jobs in the Seattle area and have yet to hear back regarding any of them. At least two of the positions are still going through the selection process, and I have hope that I’ll get one of them or at least receive a polite slam. Both of those positions would be quite similar to my current one in several ways and would be more-or-less the best job I’m hoping to get until undertaking and completing graduate school.

Speaking of graduate school, I bought a book to study for the GMAT. Somehow I never was much impressed with the Kaplan products I’ve seen, so I opted to get the 2007 edition of The Princeton Review’s “Cracking the GMAT.” So far I’ve only made it through the intro, but it should be a good aid.
