home sick
it's weird, i feel like i'm playing hooky, but i have a terrible terrible cold, and nobody wants that in a restaurant so it's the right thing to do. still feels weird to call in sick tho, goes against all my instincts and work ethic. but this is what i get for staying up 2 nights in a row earlier in the week. note to self, am no longer 20, such things should not be done anymore or body will rebel!
interview went well, i made it to the next stage, which is to complete a take-home creative thinking test, which basically asks you to do some of the sort of work they would expect you to do at the office. i am totally intimidated, but i will give it a shot and even if they don't want to hire me maybe he'll have some good pointers and advice for me.
had an actual date saturday night, with the fellow i met at the wfmu record fair. well, i guess it wasn't entirely a date to start, since he was djing at a bar and so there weren't so much date-type activities, but it sure ended up as a date. this time around, the 50 year-old thing works much better. he's nice and smart and super literate and funny and cute and i'm enjoying his company, and right now that's all i want and i think that's what he wants. so win for casual enjoyment with a confident fun guy, i could definitely use some of that!
now i think i will spend my day off taking care of some cleaning and laundry and general tidying up (so that if there is an occasion for anyone to come over i might not be completely mortified), and lots of rest and fluids and battlestar galactica once all that is done!
