I thought I nailed the interview I had on Monday for some contract work with a different company and it turned out not so much.
I hate that. It seems my impression of how well I did in an interview has no relation to whether I would get a job offer.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Good luck, Kalshane! Deep breaths.
I've never had a OTEaster candy. Pesky corn syrup/corn starch allergy. If I can ever find marshmallows I can eat I will be soooooo happy. Hard candy shells I don't pine for so much, but they do limit the options.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Girlfriend to the rescue. I called her to see if maybe she had put the paper in her purse and it turns out she brought it inside so it wouldn't get lost, but then forgot to tell me she had done so. Oops. So at least I know was remembering the time correctly.

The worst part is I'm getting several calls and e-mails a day from different contracting firms about positions at the company I interviewed with, so they're apparently looking hard for people. I have to wonder if there was some red-flag question that I somehow misinterpreted or otherwise blew.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mac and I home sick. I think he is generally better and I am just exhausted more than actually sick. But my rule of have a fever stay home sticks and we both had fever at 7am after being up over half an hour.

Ack, msbelle. That's no fun.
ETA: Well, it's 15 minutes before I have to leave, so I guess it's time to suit up and get this thing done.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Good luck, Kalshane. My experience is that there's no real way to make sense of the hiring process. It's crazy-making.

Mine looked good, but was less than nummy. I celebrated finding 5g low-carb bread by covering it with cardboardy dill chicken salad, with an all-but--tasteless tomato as a side.

I had a taco and I still have a few onion rings. Which is good for a weekday, cause those are usually about the mac and cheese or peanut butter. And WGN showed the H:LOTS pilot today. batting 1000 on small pleasures. One of my favorite pilots.
