wet wet wet

Posted on Jun 26th, 2006 by jessica : love maker jessica

it's wet today.

 really wet.

it hasn't stopped raining since saturday.  it's not going to stop raining any day soon.

 i managed to leave my lights on in my car (ethel) today while i was at work.  i don't know how, since ethel yells at me when i leave my lights on.  but i ignored her, and i paid for it.

 she refused to start for me when i wanted to go home.  her battery died.

but somehow i stayed calm.  mark, my fabulous manager, came out in the torrential downpour and jumped my car for me.  

and i managed to stay amazingly calm.  

soaking wet and cold, but calm.  ready to curl up in bed with joe, but calm.

 

it's a nice feeling, this calmness.

i *love/hate* interviews

Posted on Jun 27th, 2006 by jessica : love maker jessica

i am an interviewing whore.

i'm really not a fan of it, either.  i'm pretty much over it, but i still have a long way to go.

i had an interview this morning, and i think it went really well.  of course, i thought that about the last one, too, and i got no where, so who knows?  the only good thing is that i have another interview thursday, and then again in a couple of weeks, so i figure that, statistically speaking, i have to get called back for a second interview with one of them, right?

 

right??

dualities

Posted on Jun 30th, 2006 by jessica : love maker jessica

i was right; i did get called back for a second interview.  the principal even told me what i'd be discussing with the assistant superintendent!  bless my student teaching co-op; leslie has me so prepared.  it's great!  doesn't get rid of the nervousness, but at least i feel somewhat ready for it.

duality #1 ... i have an interview on my birthday...boo.  but it's with a charter school, so that could be interesting!

 duality #2 ... jules got offered a job...yay!  but the college is in the middle of nowhere, so she doesn't know if she wants it.  (still has to feel good to at least get an offer.)

 duality #3 ... i finally made it to yoga and had an awesome class.  there's nothing like opening your heart chakra in the middle of a lovely sunny friday.  but then i came home and shoved a donut in my face ;)

 

i think i need to find something else to eat...that donut isn't holding me over.  a shower would probably be nice, too.  i think i smell ;)
