En route to coffee

Aug 03, 2006 08:57

Went to bed at 10 but an overheated mind kept me tossing. Woke at 6:30, bounding into the day. With Jusin's Sexy Back in my ears, I bounced the 5 blocks from the busstop to the temp agency. At 8, by fateful chance, the elevator doors opened to reveal Temp Lady and the Other Temp Lady (OTL is the one I was to speak with.) I accepted the invitation to walk down for coffee and conducted the interview thence.

I presented myself well, with banter and politeness. In the elevator back up she touched upon the Location Problem. I piped up then with my rejection: "I have no car." OTL's face hardened into that smile of scarcely-hidden disappointment. They agreed that an hourlong busride each way was too much. They thanked me for coming down, informed me that Target was (slowly) looking at my resume, and accepted the fact of my Fringing.

By 8:10 I was bounding back, done five minutes earlier than I was scheduled to begin.
