Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I don't really have any good advice or smart things to say, but lots of good thoughts and strength to you, askye.
I got one more interview, at a private high school, in a city where I think I'd really like living. Keeping my fingers crossed that something will work out.
I hope your doctor comes through with something useful, askye, for both the UTI and anxiety.
Interview~ma, Hil!
Well, my book group came and went. I got complements on my biscuits and the apartment is relatively dust-free. I like it this way, just not enough to keep on top of it each week.
Man, today is not a good brain day. Plus I have the tell-tale early warning signs of a migraine (vertigo and twitchy eye).
I have a mountain of work to do, so I'm trying to go against my instincts and just put my head down and power through the work in the hopes it will distract me.
~ma to all that needs it!
I'm on my second week of missing 3 days of work to some mystery ailment. My doctor seems to know what it is but it doesn't have a name. I'm on my second round of antibiotics and still don't feel well. I'm going back into the doctor today.
work is very not happy with me for missing so much time. I'm not too thrilled with it either but I don't' think they care. All they care about is the work is piling up - digitally - and they need bodies in front of computers to do it all.
Guess who's iron is very very low again and needs to go for infusions for the next couple of week? Every once in a while I wish I could work a full time job and then I think how would I ever schedule all of my doctors appointments.
Okay:
- some work done
- healthy breakfast eaten
- more coffee consumed than is strictly necessary
- dishes done
- Ativan taken in the hopes of getting my twitchy eye to stop twitching and pre-migraine vertigo to go away [FAIL]
Onward:
- WAY more work
- possible dog walk
- shower
This is all *extremely* difficult today. I did actually forget how much it sucks to feel like this.
I just checked my messages, and yesterday, another private school called me, wanting to talk to me about an open position in their math department. This placement firm that I signed up with seems pretty good! (I mean, I haven't gotten a job yet, but I've gotten two schools that said they were interested before I even sent the cover letters that the placement firm told me to send.)
Teppy, I'm sorry it is so difficult, but go you!
Hil, I hope you find something soon.
OK, I just scheduled a phone interview for later today. This is both "yay" and "eek." Need to go read the school's webpage and philosophy and everything.
I am wiped out. I've been teaching in four campuses around Los Anglees in addition to my work running a business and other things and it has just been a very long winter and spring. Right now I'm just sitting outside the performing arts building at one of the schools waiting to teach my 11:15 class. Of course for some reason the whole building is locked so we will see how this plays out.
