Good luck on your house, SJ. Believe me, the owners are sweating out the inspection way more than you are. If there are things wrong, you get to decide if it's worth your time, or if the price needs to be adjusted to address existing issues. Where's the house?

ChiKat, I hope your baby does better, soon.

WindsSparrow, the same it true for your thyroid crazysauce.

Jilli, how did the interview go?

West Boylston, one town over from Worcester.

Jilli, how did the interview go?

It went really well! I'm being scheduled for a phone interview with the hiring manager either tomorrow or Friday, and it looks like I'll have an in-person interview loop sometime during the week of the 27th. Whoo!

I'm a little nervous, because it's for a technical writer gig, instead of a technical editor. But I've written documentation before, and I'm great at being dropped in something and catching up quickly. I just need to dazzle them during the interviews.

I hope it turns out okay, and that you can get it with little problems. The whole process is made to make your brain splodey.

Yay, Jilli! You can totally do it!

Cindy, it's lovely to have you around (putting aside for a moment the unlovely event that prompted your return); I don't mean to make you feel guilty, and understand if you need to leave again, but it's fantastic to see your pixels while you are here.

Yes, it is. I'm more worried about the appraisal. I'm afraid they will say the house isn't worth the price and the sellers are pretty firm on what they want for it.

I just need to dazzle them during the interviews.

I'm pretty sure you're great at that too. Good luck on the interviews!

sj, in re the bank appraisal, just remember, if the bank doesn't think it's worth it, most banks aren't going to think it's worth it.

You just made me (nice) cry, smonster. I feel a bit like the distant cousin, but I still had to come home.

I'm pretty sure you're great at that too. Good luck on the interviews!

Right? If Jilli can't dazzle mortals, there's no hope for the rest of us.

When I lost my dad, I got just as much support from this board as I did from meatspace.

So true.

I know. I'm just not being very rational right now.
