kitewithfishA note before Submersion: Now that I am back in the bosom of my people and will be posting about my life (as opposed to the random habits of the Viennese), large portions of this journal will be going under Friends-lock once more.
I did this once before, and most of the people who cared to read are already on the Flist. Those who want in, send me a postcard, drop me a line, stating point of view: tell me exactly what you mean to say (signed), yours sincerely, wasting away. Or comment here or elsewhere about your dying need to read about my personal life, and mostly likely the option will be laid open to you. I will wield the Mace of Rejection violently but justly.
On the life front: My job interview at the Swelles Lib seemed to go swimmingly. There was some interviewing and some chatting- I made my interviewer laugh a good deal, so that encourages me on the "charm them into hiring you" front. Apparently my sewing and costumes experience was of interest, so I played that up, and I seemed to do quite adequately on the practical portion. (Oooh, paste and glue and tiny sharp objects, the odes of obsession I could write to you.)
Those who know me and hear of my sudden interest in the library arts seem to think that it suits me to T and are generally surprised that they didn't think of it before.
At the college itself I saw a number of lovely people who I have not seen in months and I was very pleased to see them. They are all of course employed and making their parents very proud. *shakes a fist of minor jealousy*
I spent today wandering around pleasantly with my mother and letting her buy me clothes, which I think we both understand has gone from a gesture of pleasure at my return and moved into full-fledged wallet abuse.
We saw Wall*E and there will be posting about that....
