Ah, brenda knows my trick! Actually, I'm more likely to do it with the coffee pot, rather than the cup, but...

I'm antsy today...really, really antsy. I have things I could be working on, but nothing I really *have* to be working on. And, I feel like I want to relax, because after classes start tomorrow things will be crazy.

But, I'm waiting for a shipment of yarn for a project I'm helping coordinate, and I REALLY hope it gets delivered today. So, I'm kind of trapped in the house till I absolutely have to leave. Plus, I'm hoping to hear on the job I interviewed for on Friday. So, there are these things that are just making me anxious and antsy.

I could start reading one of my school books, since the prof emailed us and let us know what we'd be starting with, but I don't think I'm going to be able to concentrate.

nope, you are in the putter place. where you dust one table, wash three cups, and sit on the couch, and then jump up to look out the window, and the pet the dog, and....

no, I know nothing of the restlessness of which vw speaks.

jobma~~~ to a couple of you , better day than expected ma~~~ to deb and happy school day!

I am still tired from this weekend. happily my toe is not broken. I hope to have pictures up to share before I go to work. ( of the wedding, not my toe)

There's a possibility that I may hear today from the job I interviewed for last week. They were interviewing five candidates, the last of them sometime today, but the division head was hoping to make an immediate decision because he's flying to Europe for several weeks tomorrow, and was hoping the new person could start sometime around 9/19, before he gets back in October, and get oriented.

I'm trying not to get my hopes too high, though. I gave them my reference list, and I'm pretty sure G or L would've told me if they'd been contacted, though S (Good Former Boss) is busy enough that he might not think to mention it. Anyway, I interviewed to the best of my ability, sent a prompt and hopefully well-worded thank you, and got my suit to the cleaners so I'll be ready if something else comes up. There's nothing more I can do about this one--time to find more to apply for.

I'm kind of anxious to see how much job listings pick up in the next week or two now that we're out of August. I've considered temping starting in October assuming I can find daycare and nothing has come up, but the more I price daycare, the less that seems like a viable option. I need a real job with real money to make a go of this.

::fingers crossed for Susan::

Well, huh. I just got an e-mail from the xBox service people. They have inspected my xBox. Um...you said you didn't have it. GRRRRRRRR!

How annoying, VW, but at least they found it.

If I made CI cupcakes last night, and didn't frost them, that makes them the same thing as a muffin, and I can eat one for breakfast, right?

Well, what with muffins being cake, sure, they're the same.

Wait, when did muffins become cake? I that that was just for bread.

FWIW, I've heard that if you're brewing the same kind of coffee beans, there's little reason to do more than rinse out the coffee pot -- a percolater brings the coffee water up to boiling as a matter of course, so unless old coffee has sat in the percolater for days (long enough for the bean oil to go rancid) you can just rinse & reuse indefinitely.

Well, are they bread? Nah, they're just cupcakes wearing muscle shirts, pretending to be healthy.
