How does one tactfully explain a romance hangover?
The grin usually gives it away.
Last night I got to listen to some people having sex in the next hotel room. Much of the squeaking, not so much other sounds of actual enjoyment. I was tempted to sketch out a few hints, tips and a diagram or two and slip the paper under their door in between sessions. As a public service, you know.
Teppy, how frustrating that the doctors haven't found anything. Your father is very lucky to have you near to talk to/listen to those over-educated white coats.
What Sparky said.
I don't know. I hate turning down perfectly good inteviews, but asking someone, for their first interview, to commit to an entire day of interviewing? (I think it's more appropriate for a second interview, if at all)
On a second interview, I could see this but on a first? I have had first interviews where I knew ten minutes in that me and the job were unmixy. Committing to a full day of that possibility? Huh. Does it seem like something you would fit into well and that would make you happy?
Nora, it sounds like a whole day means they are seriously considering you for the job instead of just screening you -- which is good. Granted, a whole day is the norm for the library positions for which I apply.

I think I'd need to go there and talk to people to figure this out. Knowing the particular department, it really could go either way. I'd have been psyched to go in and talk for an hour or so so we could each get a feel for each other, before going any further.
my sister is in the biotech field - Interview process is usually the entire day - and so is the second interview...
askye, ~ma heading your way.

Is there anyway you can ask for a thirty minute getting to know each other before the all-day? Even if you are scheduling them at the same time. Um, actually scheduling, not scheduling them to occur on the same day.
I think I have lost the cognative today.
askye, all sorts of job ~ma for you. I hope they realize they should do everything in their power to keep you happy there.
askye - jobma~~~ I guess the fact that you arerunning into more difficult stuf means they are trusting you to do more stuff. yay?
Get through it ~ma, askye.
Tough call, Nora. I've never had an all day interview, so I am completely without advice or insight.
On a completely frivolous note, I was watching GG last night and
in the scene with Lorelai and Rory cooking and drinking wine, they were totally drinking out of mhy crystal!
I was thrilled. It's like my stemware is famous.
I am back from the ER for today. More IV antibiotics and IV fluids. I spiked a temp in the middle of the night last night again, so they want me to come back again tomorrow. They don't think it is my kidney's anymore though, so that is the good news. I feel a little better today. Nicole is the bestest for keeping me distracted with funny stories yesterday when I felt like crying, and Dave is great for coming over and sitting with me last night despite the fact that
t whitefonted for the squeamish
I had to get up every 20 to vomit.
Also, my mother is wonderful for taking another day out of work today to drive me to the ER because I didn't feel well enough to drive myself.
