I just got a call from my mom. She and my dad are with my grandmother, as are all of my dad's sisters and brother. Looks like the end is probably very near. Poor Honey.

Spike's Bitches 25 to Life
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
{{{Gloomcookie}}} A peaceful passing to your grandmother and comfort to you.
Oh, Gloom. I'm so sorry.
Guess who has an interview on Thursday?
And yes, it's for the position I emailed about this morning. Y'all were right, I admit it. (It's the only UW job I've applied for all August--the pickings are slim this month.)
It's just the kind of Assistant to the Chair/Division Head/Dean type position I've been most hoping to find. Basically it's Executive Assistant work, so I could probably swing something a little more prestigious/career track if that were what I was after, but it's pretty much a lateral move from what I was doing before, so I don't feel like I'm falling back on the ladder. And AFAIC my real career track is my writing. I want a job that's interesting and challenging enough to keep me from feeling bored or soul-sucked, and to give me a platform to advance from if I ever give up writing (not planning on that at all, though!), but also one that I can master and that won't provide the opposite level of soulsuck by making me too busy and harried to write.
So I'll take some of that job~ma now, please.
Awkward crosspost there.
