I got a phonecall from EA Games. I applied to them before I graduated when I was still looking for a job because they are opening a new studio in Chicago. It was just on a whim, I figured they would never call me, but what the hell... it was just fun to try.
And then they called me today. I would never leave my current job, because it rocks, and I would much rather work in web design than in software design. I've done software design, and realized it was just a major pain in my ass. And I've worked for a company that had a lot of industry recognition, which just left me with a haunting feeling every day that I was intellectually inferior by my coworkers, was a fake, and they would find out I didn't belong there. That was just way too stressful of an environment for me.
Regardless, I am still flattered that they called me. It makes me feel special.

Who wants to work in the suburbs anyway? I'll take my five minute commute down Addison any day.
