I've got to stuff myself into a business suit today for an interview at 10:30. It's at a law firm, for a 6 to 8 week contract. It'd be perfect if I got it, because I go on vacation with BF and his dad on May 24th.
I went on interviews for it yesterday and the day before too, so today's the last one (hopefully). I got up early and realized if I did get it, it'd be office hours and I'd have to be in by 8am. Am I up to this?
The fibro treatment has brought my pain under control, if I take my medication. If I don't take my meds, all the apain comes back, and lays me up for a couple days. If I get this I can't afford to skip meds, or heaven forbid, run out early! Freaking out a little. Plus I haven't seen the office bathrooms yet...
Wish me luck and strength, please!

Thanks so much for the well wishes!!
OK, that was uh, interesting!! Never been on an interview where I was asked to identify due North before. (???) I got it right tho. Guess he didn't know I was a local!
So it was different. It's a law firm looking for a contract negotiator for their law events. Looks like a pretty young office tho, with some few notible exceptions. He said I was overqualified so he had his doubts, but they'd let me know later today when they'd finished reviewing candidates. I'm not waiting with bated breath or anything.
OK, just changed back into jeans (whew! hate that black suit!) and it's time to do some shopping for BF's bday present. I'll post back as soon as I hear from them!

I love your attitude, Nelly! I hope you get the contract. So...any ideas for BF's present?
I'm feverish with spring and going to go uptown and walk around and shop for nothing in particular and hopefully come home with something. Oh...note to self--require anti-histamines a.s.a.p. It's nasty--as soon as I walk further than my garage I get that whole internal/external gigantic impossible itchiness & watery eyes & sneezing, etc. My eyelashes hurt! Do you take anything?

Hi Nelly, Overqualified! Did you tell him that you would accept what they offer? You ought to try and get a job with the government, you could then get all the insurance you would ever need, not to mention a good pension,etc. Good luck with the job hunting! -Bob
