pre-interview musings

I'm sitting in a nice hotel room in downtown Austin, wondering about stuff.

I haven't been on a job interview since 2001. Will I know how to behave? Note to self: do NOT get nervous and gibber.

What if they offer me the job? Can I really move to Austin without my head exploding because of the sheer difficulty of closing down Chez Melina? The house isn't saleable - could be rentable if I worked fast.

What if they don't offer me the job? How much longer can I tolerate being PD's* and TD's chew toy without finally administering a shaolin side kick to PD (my best kick, according to my instructor)?

Should I have pursued the nice man in Waco with the Triumph? (I decided not to.)

Which shoes should I wear tomorrow? The black ones, or the black ones?

Should I have pointed out TD's horrible grammatical error Friday? She decided that a letter I'd written for our Director of Recruiting started out better with misplaced modifiers, plus a singular/plural snafu. When I pointed this out, I was treated to a deadly silence from her end.

I wonder if there's any chocolate in the bar fridge.

I was in Austin yesterday, a bit earlier though. I hope all went well.
