Today is the day I'm supposed to hear something about the Seattle gig. While I'm confident I made a stellar impression, could do the job easily, and have agreed to a slew of concessions that should get me to round two of the interview process, I'm still anxious and excited.
Emusic wants me to take a survey. You get my money every month, not my opinion.
All day I've been watching my email. Every time one comes my way, I let out a singular, involuntary gasp.
The Catlow Theater is playing "The Bucket List" this week. I'll save my five dollars.
While I'm sure they are working on trimming the list of candidates down, it could easily be another week or two before my fate is revealed.
A potential bidder wants to know if I'll ship the Simpsons season 6 DVD set I have on eBay to Canada. Sure.
I don't believe in the jinx. Several friends have refrained from asking for an update because of the jinx. I appreciate their superstitious, kind hearts. I only occasionally ask if an unemployed friend has found a job. If your house is taking a while to unload, I don't bring it up every time I see you. This is different. This possibility has provided hope and I'm happy to share with everyone.
Bob Lefsetz continues to email me his often dribbly literary nonsense, even though twice I've tried to unsubscribe.
Several friends have emailed me today. Apparently they marked their calendars. Thanks.
Ticketmaster just emailed me about an exclusive pre-sale offer for Yes tickets.
The importance of this interview process has already been discovered; A cemented realization that finding a new position soon, on my own terms, is insurmountably better for my mental well being than lingering around this dying company for a golden parachute.
Seller af_books just shipped my recently purchased Philip K. Dick book: The Man Who Japed.
It's close to 5pm PST. I'm not going to hear anything today and that's all right. For the last week, I've had a carefully prepared, casual sounding inquiry typed and ready for Stacy in HR.
The Cascade Drive In is now open for spring. They are playing "Nim's Island" and "Superhero Movie" this weekend. No thanks.

Now I don't know about you, but I get so excited by an email as enticing as this that I pee myself. I really do pee myself. I am doing it now. Peeing myself that is.
don't we all LOL
Lefsetz does send a lot of emails out doesn't he? And why would anyone want to go see Yes in concert? These are the questions that plague my mind and inbox too....I feel for your anxiousness to hear and know all too well about that wait.....
