Interview~ma, Theo and Dana!
I haven't heard on any of my applications yet, but the wheels of higher ed HR grind extremely slowly. I have seen an uptick in hits on my LinkedIn profile, though, so at least someone thinks I'm worth checking out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Do you send thank you notes for second interviews?
I think it went pretty well, and I'm a strong candidate, but who knows...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like a follow-up email is never a bad call, but it's especially valuable if you actually have something to say. Like, learning X thing about the position makes you an even better fit, or whatever? But I never mind getting even the most perfunctory thank you.
I am almost off work for two days, and I would love to just take off now, but I have yoga after work and also it's miserable outside, which I forget, sitting here in air conditioning. So I am going to stay here until 5!

Yes, no one objects to a thank you.
It is toasty here as well, nearly 80. I'd complain more, but I know it will be back near 50 tonight. I do have a couple fans going.

So apparently it just started storming here and dropped 25+ degrees. Phew!

One of our more recent hires sent hand-written thank you notes on pretty stationery. She was, by far, the most qualified and best in interviews. So we were like, "Way the gild that lily, kid." But they were still nice to receive and didn't count against her.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Same here Jesse. Every joint in my body is freaking out.
ltc is learning that mommy is not making empty threats. If 4 time outs in a row isn't going to teach her not to hit me, maybe missing karate will.
