It’s the weekend, y’all! We made it. You made it. The week is over. Let’s do weekendy things.
We weathered yesterday’s storms storms with no damage, no surprise there. At Brian’s suggestion, I went out in the morning and moved my car onto the front lawn and out from under the trees. I helped bring in the whirligigs. At that point, there was nothing left to do but wait for the weather to get nastier.
It did.
On the plus side, my springtails arrived in the mail. They’re absolutely fascinating to me. Y’all are lucky they don’t really show up on camera. Jars of dirt are one thing, but jars of flea-sized critters are an entirely different matter.
Sorry. Bioactive organisms.
Whatever we want to call them, they’re in the jar-den. They – and the little worm stowaways – are very active at night. I’ll probably subject you to photographic evidence at a later date. I recorded video.
Sadly, all the good Friday things didn’t happen. Brian wasn’t in the mood to go out for dinner after work, so we didn’t go to the Chinese buffet. If I was going to move on in the application process, I would have heard from the dispo I interviewed with by yesterday. That didn’t happen. I’m assuming I didn’t make the cut, although I can’t discount simple ineptitude based on the prior history with this hiring manager.
On a positive note, the hiring manager at dispo #2 emailed to confirm another time to call me. That makes me a bit more optimistic. I let her know the time was ok, but to get in touch if anything opened up earlier or if she had any questions beforehand.
Look at me, being proactive and polite and acting like an adult.
