Getting-the-job ~ma would be nice, but at this point I am only requesting getting-through-the-second-round-phone-interview-without-sounding-like-an-idiot ~ma. I didn't know there was a second phone interview so it has me a little off balance and anxious. The interviewer also called to schedule extra time because, "thirty minutes was not enough for him." Gulp. Today 2:45 EST/1:45 CST. 11:45 PST. ::taking deep breaths::
If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me

Releasing interview ~ma. I think it went well. Thanks!!
I am out of the hospital, at home sweating profusely and Windsparrow is off filling my prescriptions for Morphine pills and Cipro.
a little (ok, a lot of) job-stability&keeping/restructuring-resilience~ma for DH would be very much appreciated starting today. Which is also his birthday. yay?
I'd love a little kitty~ma for my new kitten, Casper. He was tested for feline leukemia yesterday and we get the results today. If he's positive, we can't keep him as we have two other cats. Clean test, please!

The show starts at 7, festive dress requested. Please email lagarat at gmail if you want to go, first responder wins. More info here.
Some of you know that I have been working on a massive project at work that has destroyed any chance I've had to actually have a personal life of any sorts for the last three months.
It's done. I just finalized the cover letter. It's burning onto dvds right now.
It's 94,000 pages, 675 files, 22,453 hyperlinks and is over 5 gigabytes of pdfs and SAS datasets.
It culminates 7 years of drug development.
It ships Monday.
A special thanks to those of you who were patient with my endless party declinations (is that a word?) and general non-socialization.
(And yes, Megan, this means Chile and I can finally go for a hike with you!)
Well, I spoke too soon. Had to work all day on this still (fixing a last minute technical issue) and now the same error that happened two weeks ago, where once-created external links disappear into the ether, has happened.
I have quit crying long enough now that I can actually type. I'll be back in the office at 6, to spend the day re-creating over 2000 links.
ETA: I have been told by the software company not to restore the rest of the links today, but to instead wait for a script to run in the database to restore the links. Still, I am stress case. But at least I get to watch the Niners game and do 300 errands today.
