This'll be a bit out of order though.

( We'll start with the bad news )

I just wrote a big-ass review of 'The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser.' I'm pretty proud of it, for an LJ post.

Anyhoo, I finaly worked up my nerve to ask my Hinterboss about The Current Situation.

A mish-mash of Joan Crawford and Nora Desmond (from Sunset Blvd) shall be my work costume this year. I'm picking up a bathrobe and those big-ass pink rollers after work. Also some kind of pale blue-green facepaint, to be my 'beauty mask.' I have crazy high heels and jewelry aplenty.

So the interview.

The first interview, which was with the person I would actually be working under, went swimmingly. I felt great. I was on fire. Earlier, I used my spare needle and thread to sew shut the little window in the front of my blouse, a window that is always present in button down shirts because I just can't seem to find the right damn ( Read more... )

I have an 'Ohplease' moment ahead today. An interview for a permanent job in Reading as an Assistant Editor. It's at 11 AM. I am confident, I have a sharp outfit on and I practiced answering interview questions yesterday because I am prone to rambling and getting off topic on these things. I have cleaned out my head of all extraneous thoughts for ( Read more... )
