I have an interview next week! They liked the writing samples!
This is my first ever interview when it's "One person will get one job." I've always had "we're looking for mostly sane people who are coherent and aren't likely to shoot up the place." Well, not that bad. I don't know if I have any competitors. They may have had an open job for a while and no takers.
yay Connie!
Can I whine a little? I know my job is to be the rational one in the house right now--- but always responding in an uberrational matter to everything might kill me. and when I try to whine a little to my friends -- they try to tell me that Matt is going through some badshit. I know that. That's why I am whining to other people, not yelling at him.

Bad friends! No cookie! Of course you can whine here. Obviously everything that affects Matt affects you, and you need to be able to vent about it somewhere so that you can be supportive of him, like he needs you to be.

We have some lovely cheese to go with it. Would you like a chaise lounge? Achmed the Handsome is standing by with the crackers.

Right on!!!!

Well, sure he is -- but so are YOU. The things that affect Matt end up affecting you, too. I can't believe your friends don't see that.
thanks, sj -- I think it is so weird that people don't believe that I know how it is for Matt. Really, I live with him and have for many years -- I know how bad his head space can get.Much more than other people know, he hides it well.
Does Achmed tell stories?

Lovely stories! The Nice Young Hooker stories, mostly. The one about the NYH and the soccer team is especially nice.
The interview got pushed back to two weeks, I'm taking that to be "life is weird, damned scheduling" rather than "Hm, let's see if we get anybody else." Plus the monthly joy will liekly be over by then.
I can't believe your friends don't see that.
I think they see, but somehow they need to explain how bad it is for him. I think it is just because they like him so much -- they want to protect him
