Well, interview went well but there are already plans to offer the position to someone else, so I am a Plan B, or if the temp assignment lasts long enough potentially to be converted to permanent down the road (or if the higher-ups okay more hiring in this department meanwhile). So, long-term maybe positive but short-term kinda meh.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sorry to hear that, ~t. Fingers crossed for the long term.

My cat just drank from the cup of oolong tea I made for myself. Silly cat. It won't hurt her, will it?

The very first thing I thought of when I heard the news was Elvis Costello's Tramp The Dirt Down.
Me also. Serious vitriol.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
More Retronaut fun... [link] . I had no idea MJ had a patent on this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm actually pretty excited to learn that was special shoes and not just magic.
So, long-term maybe positive but short-term kinda meh.
Booooo. But continued good luck for the long term!

And those shoes can be used to pull nails!

Well, now (not right this minute now, but this week) I'm shadowing one of the analysts so I can fill in while she's on vacation next week, so maybe a little more positive than I had thought...we'll see.

Ugh! I still can't decide if I want to get a new cat. Mostly I still want my old cat back, I think, so I guess that's a no.
