Teppy, do you want to see more Mediabistro job listings? Or is that not helpful right now?
I do, actually. Thank you.

The closest I found was Change in Living Conditions which is only a 25.
I sooooo beg to differ on that one.

Our wings are not tired.
Going into an interview knowing you need time off for something is not uncommon at all.
I have experienced this both from the employee and employer side. Not unusual at all.

Tep,
given your skill set and kind of experience, employers will be looking for a solid employee who will stay at a company for awhile. Training new people is a pain in the ass and you have shown significant loyalty and stability.
Given these traits, any future employer should be okay accommodating planned vacation time and other things that are far enough into the future. If this were your first job at a Stop & Rob, who knows if you would get a choice, but you are experienced, talented, and show good work habits.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Plus, your company being bought out wasn't something you could have known about so telling new-and-awesome! employers should be very understanding.
IOMeN: I am turning into that nosy neighbor from "Bewitched". The Department of Community Standards for the township we live in has been trolling our street for a few days. Today, the across the street neighbors got something posted to their door and I totally want to go over there and read it. Especially now since the storm knocked it off their door and into the bushes. I should do the (nosy) neighborly thing and put it where they can see it and can deal with it and not miss it and get into major trouble, right? In the interest of helping them out and not accidentally reading, right??
I am a shitty, nosy person. Cause I would totally be pissed if someone did that to me.

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
Ok, they asked for my resume, so I tweaked it and sent it over. Now I haven't heard anything more regarding the 25th. Someone please tell me not to freak out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Companies move slow, especially HR. Do not freak out.

Maria, do not freak out.
I was fairly useless today at the library bookstore because my back is awful right now. So, I am consoling myself with a cappuccino and a croissant. Sigh, well I was good on my new diet for a few days.
