Twas The Night Before Her Interview...

And all through the house, not a creature was stirring - not even a mouse.

Tomorrow (today for anyone reading this) is the big day! My very first interview here in Arizona. I'm nervous and excited all at the same time. I am going to have a tough time falling asleep tonight!

I am nervous because I REALLY need and want this job. I have no idea what I’ll do if I don’t get it. This is truly all I know. I have no idea what I am going to wear tomorrow. I’ll find something, though. I have to make a good first impression. After all, that is probably the only time my potential employer will see me when I’m not elbow-deep in doo.

At the same time, I am excited because I can't wait to get back into the swing of things, have my own life, and meet new people. Sure, I am super shy at first, but I always find a select few people to bond with at work. I look forward to that. I really do miss some of the girls at Oakwood.

So, if you think about it, throw out a prayer at 4:30 Central time tomorrow. I’d appreciate it!

I took Toby for a walk this morning. I am going to try to make it a daily thing. It probably won't always happen, but if I can get him out there 3-5 times a week, I'll be happy. He is still so annoying to walk with. Since he is new at it, he tends to forget that he is on a leash and tries to take off running every time he sees a bird, dog, cat, or human. Plus, he has to stop and sniff EVERYTHING. I need to learn to be more patient with him because I do find myself getting irritated with him.

Tonight Jeff and I ate Korean food for supper. It was interesting. The tofu soup left something to be desired, the rice was good (although, it is hard to screw up rice), and the chicken was pretty good until I started to wonder if the meat really was the same consistency as chicken or if, perhaps, I'd been duped into eating dog or something. Needless to say, I lost my appetite.

It is no longer hot here in Arizona. It typically reaches somewhere in the mid-seventies during the day and gets down into the upper forties at night. It is no longer tank top season here – I am sad to report.

Boo hoo, right April?

This Saturday is the Luke AFB Christmas party. I think that it will be a lot of fun, but I am already stressed about meeting all of those new people. I’m sure that I will have a lot to say about that experience.

In addition to “Twilight,” I am also looking forward to seeing “Seven Pounds” this month. It might sound geeky, but I also want to see “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” Every time I see the preview for it, it breaks my heart.

I’ll try to write a sentence or two after my interview. Until then...

Happy shoveling, Wisconsinites! :]
