Yay Erin! And I forgot to say yay busy housekeeping omnis too, earlier!
When do you hear?
Don't really know. Originally they planned to interview the last of the students on 29/9, but for some reason, after interviewing me they decided they want to interview him ASAP (and I hope this wasn't because of me answering "as soon as you can, I guess" to the "when will you need an answer?" question.) After the interview, they showed me around the offices "if I'm there already", and at some point the "if you'll end up here, then..." became "when you'll be here, then...". Oh, and they told me I left a pretty good impression.
So, I think, hoping not to jinx myself and that the other student won't be a better person to the internship than me, I have pretty good chances.
In anyway, they were really nice people.
And again, Whoooooo Erin!

Thanks for all the grandma-related brackets and well wishes.
My mom called last night and after my grandma got home, she fell again.
Who knows what excitement today will bring?!?!?!

Yep. All that angsting a couple of weeks ago...and he tells me he's been plotting on how to bring it up "coyly."
I'm so excited! A little nervous -- I've never lived with anyone I've been romantically involved with, but we get along really well. We are having Thansgiving here- his folks and my folks and sister.
And I have a lot to pack!!!!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
"Self-referential comedy is getting a bit dull," said The Girl (after laughing a lot) when I showed her this.

It's been cheering me up all day, anyway.
