miss_lucy21 So, things are progressing. I have a temp job (i.e., income) for the rest of March and probably all of April (my assignment says 60 days, but that's never a guarantee when you're a contractor). It's actually a pretty nice gig- it's right up the street from my apartment (about 8ish minutes driving, but more like 5 if I don't hit the lights on red), I get done at 4, and I 100% do not need to think about any aspect of what I am doing when I am not physically doing it. I don't even have a phone. The work is interesting for the moment, since I'm learning it and probably around about the time it gets less interesting and more tedious, I'll be moving on anyway. Quite honestly, if it weren't for the fact that I'm not quite making enough money to take care of everything that needs taking care of, I would totally not mind doing this sort of thing for a year. It's kind of a relief after six years of constant pressure.
I do have a phone interview for a permanent position on Tuesday. I managed to get them to schedule it during my lunch, so what will happen is I will scoot home about 15 minutes before the interview time, do the interview, which should take about 30 minutes, then scoot back over to work and hopefully be on time (I don't think anyone's actually paying that much attention so long as what I put in the time sheet is correct, so if I'm a touch late, probably no one will care). It is really nice, though, that I can do the phone interview at home, where I can pace around and be comfortable in my surroundings. The job sounds promising (although the commute would be fairly crummy and I am absolutely not moving closer to that side of town because it's really far away from everything else in my life, so no), so we'll see.
So, income is good, and I'm okay. Tired and cranky about the time change- how is it that I get so very screwed up by the time change when I don't have any sense of time anyway is completely beyond me- but I'm okay.
