Oooooh, they are toying with me. More than 24 hours since the "send us your availability for an interview and writing samples" message. Not. A. Word.

I know. I'm trying not to feel irritated. It feels like, Here, boy, here's a bone! And then there's no bone in the hand of the master, and the master is quiet, in fact, he went out to water the garden.

My wife tells me the same thing. "You worry too much. Things will fall into place as they will, and you can't force any of it." She is wise.

I'm just worried about the last-minute call or message expecting me to show up with little advance notice. Next week is moving week, and my time is really limited this week as well.

The funny thing is, when I first spoke with the point person several weeks ago, to set up a prescreening interview, she had called within a few hours of sending her email to me, wondering why I had not responded yet (I simply had not checked my email yet that day). She told that she was an impatient person so she was calling me because she didn't like waiting for email replies. Like, huh?

Pet peeve: When people say "No problem" when they should say "You're welcome."

As in, "Thank you for wiping my butt." Reply: "No problem." No, say that the person is welcome to your help for wiping his butt. Helping can be a problem. To imply that it is not means that your help really wasn't worth much. Acknowledge that you had something to offer by offering the more appropriate response.

In all seriousness, I hear this all the time anymore. I myself am making an effort to avoid it. I am consciously using "you're welcome" more often.

If my cubicle neighbor were not so darned cute, this would be irritating: She has this particular nervous habit of laughing at the end of almost every sentence she speaks. It's a quick, nervous, little laugh, almost a giggle, but deeper and quicker--she laughs and then quickly stops.

She gets away with it because she's a "girl" and she's young, but I feel bad for her sometimes, as in, don't you know how that sounds to the other person? She does it especially when she's talking on the phone. "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, that's bad news. (laughter) We apologize for our mistake. (laughter) But we do appreciate your significant contribution to our liberal arts in prison program (laughter)."

Oh, I don't mind, really. It's cute. But I hope she outgrows it before long, for her own sake.

or you could enjoy watching her BUUUUURNNNN!

just kidding. i know what you mean. it's that nervous/submissive laugh. like a japanese girl.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syk24qq3d64

she'll never grow up to be madeleine albright that way. that requires respect, and giggles don't cut it. speaking of albright, i read this fun thing by her today about the power of interruptions (and the power required to pull them off)

Ha ha, yes, only it's not that high and giggly. Nervous and submissive, yes.

And I love Portlandia. Love it.

oh god, i have this issue. it's a nerve thing. i got in hot water many a time in the past for laughing during terribly inappropriate situations because i do that when i'm nervous. i end a lot of my sentences in a weird half mumble/laughter when anxiety strikes, and i'm overly self-aware of it. it's pretty awful. but she sounds aware of it at least.

yesssss. congrats.

i would humbly suggest (humbly! who am i kidding!) going easy on the furniture. moving is a BITCH.

this is unrelated to your good news but i've been considering japanese- style furniture. i.e., very little.

this as a consequence of someone who asked me if i sat on beanbags. no, but then i thought--- "heeeeeey! great ideeeea!" well not a beanbag exactly but i've been thinking of tatami mats, floor cushions, etc. then i'll change my name to kussword kurosawa.

you prolly wanna check on freecycle. shit adds up at the register!

ps- if florida is hot you could get a nice hammock and put it indoors. you'd save on AC bills ha ha ha.

i'm crazy, i know. but at least i own my crazy & make no apologies. ha ha ha.

it works though.

oh, moving is gonna be great. our move in period is right when i get back from my mini vacation, so i can be packed before i leave, then just come back and be ready to go

bean bags are awesome. i always had one in my room up til i left home. and yeah, this time also there are always the uf kids throwing out stuff. i just need a bed/desk/dresser, and a rug. i'm stoked.

eh! that's great!

i've never achieved the delights of a pain-free move. i am aiming for that the next time it happens-- i gotta open an office in a different town so i have to set up a small apartment.

because king-size is a royal (clearly) pain to move around, i think we're gonna skip the bed altogether.

like this

 


or something
