So, I have gotten out of the weblog swing of things, what with the progeny and all. I was going to write a stream-of-consciousness thing representing the past few weeks, but perhaps I will just write about what happened today.
My back was in mega pain yesterday, so I took a muscle relaxant that Amanda gave me. Unfortunately, it has the side effect of making me very groggy, so I was spaced out most of the day. And that was after sleeping nine hours with CPAP.
Otherwise, I wrote a bunch of work-seeking emails when I was not groggy. I am negotiating with my former workplace on doing some consulting stuff for them (really, everyone would have been much happier had they not have laid me off and I just finished my contract), but that may or may not happen.
A place I had went through multiple interviews with decided not to hire me. Ah, well, I am not cool like Amanda who got job offers from every single place she interviewed at. I saw that they reposted the position (perhaps slightly altered), so evidently they thought none of the people they talked to were suitable, which seems odd to me (why go through all the multiple levels of interviewing pain and not hire any of your finalists?).
We had veggie fajitas for dinner. Bryan and Mandy came over later, and we had dessert wine and apple crisp.
For the next 39 minutes of today, I will do a bit of cleaning. Exciting.
