update

So, I got a call and I didn't get the job I was hoping for, but I was invited back for another interview for a similar position with the same organization. It's a 'relaxed' panel format, whatever the heck relaxed interviewing (with a bunch of future co-workers picking your brain) is. Anyway, I've resolved to try to be positive about it, and I know and like at least the one woman who invited me back, so hopefully things will go smoothly. I'll also be able to better prepare for this, since I have already applied for and gone through the final interview for an extremely similar position. (Basically I will have to pull out the DSM and research common medications and side effects. And everyone in college thought I was being unnecessarily weird when I brought out the DSM IV TR for some 'light reading', turns out it WAS good for me. Kindof. Indirectly after the fact.)
Anyway, now I have something to ruminate about for the next couple days. Plus one of my cousins is going to be staying at the house tomorrow, and he's apparently turning into a wannabe longhaired vegetarian... Much to his parents' chagrin. I think we used to call that a "hippie" back in the day, though I'm not sure he would appreciate the full set of cultural implications.
Hope things are going elsewhere in the world. Thinking about those poor souls in Peru and Yucatan. Tragedy bears down upon us incessantly. Life is damage control.
