Dammit.
They have "several more candidates" coming in next week and won't be making a decision until the week after. Obviously I didn't blow them away, though it's not an outright negative, either. I'm so depressed.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Pix, there could be lots of factors, including those outside the control of people doing the hiring. Don't assume that you didn't impress them.

Thanks Dana, but if they are still interviewing, I think the chances are good that I didn't blow them away. I've put in a call to the associate head over there basically (politely and enthusiastically) asking if I'm still a serious contender or if it's looking like I'm not a match so I can let my current school know.

Not necessarily. If they had interviews scheduled, they may feel like they should follow through. Now you're just the candidate to beat.

Or that they had the interviews already scheduled. Here in softwareland, if someone has been scheduled for an interview, the company has to go through with the interview. Even if there's another candidate they've already met and prefered.

Vortex, they didn't have interviews scheduled past this week at the time I interviewed, which means these are candidates they decided to pursue after meeting me and seeing me teach.
I don't mean to be a downer. Sorry.

See! You know I'm totally right if Jilli says the same thing.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I read all the posts. I have no energy for responding. Interview~ma for Hil and yay Torchwood for Shir and that's all I can manage. I was at the polls for five hours today, taking down people's random numbers (it was vaguely in aid of the Lib Dems), with far larger crowds than I've ever seen before. Right now the exit polls are depressing and suggest that my little party has actually lost seats. I'm hoping the universe will forgive me and become a better place while I sleep. I'm watching QI.

Just poking in to say I had a really scary Supernatural/Gilmore Girls dream the other night. WTF? "Rory's in trouble!" Good Lord, my head is a silly place.

Oh damn.
A teenage brother of an so-called internet-friend person, who is still close enough, is dying. Like, dying-dying, final hours.
What's acceptable? I'm pretty sure we'll be able to come up with his address to get flowers to be sent there, but I'm not sure if it's a custom, and anyhow, it seems too little. So too little.
