more randomness!
- I had to make an emergency visit to my doctor this morning. I’m ok, still alive, after all.
She prescribed me some meds and I should be fine. - I was at work today for a total of one (1!) hour. I was at the doctor from 9-10, had to get the prescription filled from 10-11, went to work from 11-12, then we had this work shindig that took place at one of the Navy bases that lasted from 12:30-3:00. We all decided not to go back to work, as we only would have been there for about one hour by the time we got back till the end of the workday. If only every day could be like that! Man…
- I cast on ANOTHER project. And not Secret of the Stole, though Clue #2 will be released tomorrow and I have yet to cast on Clue #1.
No, I cast on the Raindrop Lace Socks from Fiber Trends. I need more socks for work, so I’m knitting these in Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock in the Chocolate colorway. Simple but pretty dark brown. I love vibrant, variegated colorways but I can’t really rock the purple Monkey socks at work. 
- I overspent big time these past two weeks. Not on yarn (still going strong on the diet!) but mostly books and food and Starbucks and a new work purse and oh who knows what else.
Thankfully, Monday is payday and I didn’t use my credit cards, but still. I need to focus on budgeting…and I’m so bad at it…*sigh* I really should put up a countdown for my credit card diet, which I’ve been on unofficially for about a month or so. - Ghost Hunters Season 3, Part 1 is mine! (speaking of spending, right?) I thought I would have to order it from Amazon but surprisingly, a local store has it. woohoo!
- I haven’t heard back about the possible second job at the library. I’m supposed to get a call whether they offer me the job or not, but I think they’re probably still doing background checks. They called my current supervisor for a reference and he gave me a pretty good one. Just waiting to hear back…
- Tomorrow is finally Friday, thank goodness. This weekend I’m hoping to cast on Secret of the Stole and at least get Clue #1 completed. Whether that happens or not remains to be seen! Procrastination seems to hide in my knitting bag and pop its head out when I would otherwise actually finish a current WIP. It tempts me with new projects and gives me cast on syndrome. Whatever will I do?

Your morning sounds like mine. 4:30-6:30 Dropping kids at sitter’s and driving. 6:30-10:30 in hospital. 10:30-12 Redistributing kids (ha, I make it sound like they are packages), grabbing lunch, and going home. Budgeting sucks. We should so go back to barter and trade. That’s what I say.

So I don’t want to put any hopes up for you, cuz their HR might be different than the one I’m currently ending my stint at but…when we check references that pretty much means you’re one of maybe 2 or 3 “finalists” on the list.
Good luck!!

oh noes, are you okay? 
I hope you are. hmm yes, checking references is a very good thing! and I really think if it has been more than a few days, that it is perfectly acceptable to call back and just check up on what they are doing — my current boss is just very absent minded and had literally forgotten to call my references until I called and asked her about it
