Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

exactly like that, Jesse, but not that one.

all of those are good and yet not the one. crappity stupid brain. It's a book I've read, my guess something older rather than newer, possibly a film would exist also.

Thanks, Sparky. I think at this point I've probably interviewed at least once with the place I'll end up working, the question is which one will it be. I have a couple of second interviews coming up now.

Because books.

I totally skipped over that, but awesome news on the job opportunities, Gud. Fingers crossed!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's great, Gud. And you can totally just ask for time to respond to an offer.

On the subject of interviews:

My expectation is that for any job, my interview will be at least one full day, possibly more.

My husband has never had an interview go longer than an hour.

There are four places I'm really hoping to get. I've had a phone interview and a technical test for one of them and they both went well, so hopefully they'll bring me in for a face to face. With another, I've had a phone interview and they are bringing me in to talk with people from 9:00am to 2:00pm Thursday. I had a phone interview with a third that went well, but the skill set isn't a great match (which they knew from the recruiter beforehand) so that's a bit iffy. I had an in-person interview with the fourth that I thought went well, but that was two weeks ago so I'm starting to think that might be toast. I was the first person they interviewed though, so it might just be they are going slow in the first round.

Then there are a couple of places I've interviewed with in person that would be... okay, and I have a phone interview with another place that I suspect won't be real exciting coming up.
