Happy birthday to the legendary Juliana! May this year be full of awesome.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

In "them what has, gets" news, tomorrow I have a job interview at a major university. I got the call the day after we found out our current contracts would be extended for a year. Naturally. Still, this could be a very good move for me. (Some of the coworkers would be delightful, for starters, although I don't know how close the local buffistas are to my potential department.) So any spare interview~ma lying about would be deeply appreciated at around 11 am, EDT. Tomorrow's also when it's expected to hit 100F around here, so if there's such a thing as "not turning into a gross pile of sweat and allegedly-waterproof mascara"~ma, that would also be lovely.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Calli, would it be possible for you to arrive a few minutes early so you can find a restroom to fix whatever may need to be fixed?

I've done that a couple of times for interviews. People tend to be cooperative in that kind of situation.

Yep, I plan to get there by 10:30, scope out the interview office location, and do massive repair work in the restroom. Hose and interview shoes will probably be carried in. I think I've found the true purpose of a briefcase--heaven knows I don't really need it for much work stuff.

Mostly lurking...

So, I've hired a couple of girls to come babysit Toto on moving day. What's the going rate for doggie babysitting by teenagers these days?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The school I am going to has an online library where we have to do our research for our final paper. This is a weird and new process for me.

IOmemeN, I am a spoiled brat who grew up in an air conditioned house, and living in an apartment with just fans to cool me down in this heat is unbearable to me. Dave doesn't like air blowing on him, so he doesn't even like the fans on too high.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy Birthday juliana! Many happy returns of the day.

Interview~ma (and non-melty~ma) to Calli.

We have been warned not to use too much electricity today. I think that is code for "It will be too hot and if everyone runs a/c there will be brownouts." I don't have an a/c, so at least I won't be part of that problem.
