Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm guessing "Bite me" isn't what you are looking for, is it?

ask if there's any other information they need from you? Checking in to see how the job search is going?

Well, when I first applied, I still had a project with my current job. Now I have nothing. So yeah, I'm looking for slightly less hostility and slightly more CALL ME.

Maybe you could let them know about your current situation, and that you would be ready to start at their earliest convenience?
I don't know... I don't think I'm saying it right. Hell, I don't think I'm thinking it right.

What Nora said--focus on wanting to follow up, and still be interested in the job, discussing it more, etc.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I concur with the idea of finding out if there's any more information you can provide for them to help them reach a decision.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
We visited our friends Lisa and Michael this weekend. JZ's known Lisa since high school, and Lisa lived in L.A. for years working with a small theater company.
Anyway, Lisa has friends down there still in the movie biz and one of them was temping at a plastic surgeon's office. She related a fabulously decadent tale of Courtney Love receiving her regular "Sculptene" injections (apparently something like cheekbones-in-a-syringe), replete with designer pill cocktails, blinged out gangsta dealers in the waiting room, outfit changes between the car and the parking lot and Courtney's doped up, erratic behavior which was fully cosseted by Assistants 1 and 2.
Also, Jessica Alba apparently receives a monthly $7,000 full body "skin tightening" (?) treatment. Something with frickin' lasers.

Okay. E-mail sent off. I did not say "please call me because I want to keep working at home, not go work for stupid engineers."

That was politic of you.
