Wanted to get the word out before collapsing into bed - I have a 2nd interview tomorrow (Wednesday) morning at 8am EST (5am board time). Buffista jobma is necessary - I've seen what you gus can do, and I'm certain that it's the reason I got the second interview in the first place. And it is also much appreciated. This is for Dream Job in Dream Environment.
Thank you.
In case you haven't heard, I have a new job. This job ends on Friday (YAY!) and the new one starts 1/6.
If you have an address for me at Riverside Dr., that is no longer valid. If you need a new address for me, email me.
Thank you for all the support as I got more and more miserable at this job and as I searched for a new one.
I'm back from LA! It was awesome and fabulous. Returning from vacation sucks even if you don't have to go to work the next day.
However, I'm a bazillion and three posts behind in every thread, I think. So, uh...I'll skip and skim, but I may not even have a chance to do that, for a bit...
Hubby update--they had to do the spinal fusion after all. Apparently there were a lot of big blood vessels down there that the doc wasn't expecting, so he lost about a unit of blood, but they're upping his intravenous fluids rather than transfusing. He'll be in the hospital for at least three days, and I don't know if that counts today or not. Doc was hoping it was just a matter of a bone fragment pressing on the nerves, which would have had Hubby back on his feet and back at work within days, but that is not the case. I don't know when we'll get back to what passes for normal around here.
But he's out of surgery, he's coherent, he can move his legs, he has all feeling, and he should stop waking up screaming. I keep reminding myself of the priorities.
Not exactly life-shattering, but:
1 Still not dead
2 Just finished first term and still loving job -- go me!
3 Class production was roaring success -- go kiddies!
4 Going home to UK for Christmas and Hogmanay! Yay!
5 Recently been on National Television, singing for President with wee buggers. Random or what?
Does anyone remember what the gift limit is for the secret santa exchange?
Vortex: no goats.

sticks tongue out at erin
No, I mean how much?
I thought it was non-specific.
erika is correct. It's whatever you want to spend. Now go continue this in the Goodbye and Good Riddance thread.
