Thanks everyone. I think it went well. I'm being brought in for a day's worth of interviews on Friday. They want to move forward.
Go Maria! Go Maria! Awesomeness!!
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

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.

Yay Maria!
So did everyone but me know that Aldis Hodge and Stephen Fry were in an ad together?
TWICE I have read this as Aldis Hodge and Stephan Fry were together!

Fingers crossed, Maria! Remember, you're interviewing them as well -- are they good enough for =you to work for them=?
(I saw a friend go through three jobs in 18 months because she took the first offer each time, for places that were, frankly, skeevy -- two of them went bankrupt,and the other she was harassed out the door. Perhaps the law of averages wasn't working on her behalf, but I think she was lacking in picking up warning signals....)

Yay Maria!!!
I just went for a short hike (about 90 minutes) on a island in the harbour. I was nice, but I am really out of shape.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay, Maria, that sounds very positive!
I failed at being social, but succeeded at buying groceries, so half-credit for the day, I guess.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
It is positive. It would be contract to perm for various reasons (which I'm OK with), but if it happens, now I have to turn down a job I've already accepted and which I'm scheduled to start after Labor Day. It's not the perfect job by any stretch--little career growth, no longer in management capacity--but it will keep a roof over our heads and food on the table.
The company I'd rather work for knows about this accepted position, and they also know that it's not what I ultimately want to be doing. I figured honesty was the best policy here.

What is the current slang term for marijuana? I just heard Craig Ferguson say "doobie", which makes me laugh. I feel like I would say pot, or maybe weed, but is there a new one?

I think of a doobie specifically as a joint. As far as I know, "pot" and "weed" are still acceptable slang terms.
