I'm having an "end of summer cranky" fit tonight. Part of it is due to the fact that sometime today I lost one half of my very favorite pair of hairsticks. Wah! <cue the teeny tiny violins> Part of it is due to the fact that the job that I have wanted since 2001, the job that has been advertised since early June, the job that I have actually set three copies of my resume and cover letter for, the job that has been vacant since early August is STILL BEING ADVERTISED!!! Argh! I'm perfect for this job and this job is perfect for me. It's like chocolate and peanut butter. Human resources needs to call me.

In the meantime it's back to substitute teaching until something comes through. Which means I need to go to bed early. <sigh> I'm hoping that maybe, in a flash of symbolism, I'll get a call offering me an interview on Tuesday, September 13, which will be the 4th anniversary of my getting laid off.
