Life Update

I told myself that when/if TG and I broke up (which we did on Friday) that I would not date for at least three months. So I am welcoming the alone time by sleeping all day Sunday (which I did). Lovely.

So, I am now single and unemployed. Whoo!

Youngest is pregnant again. They planned this one, ooh lala. I know they are great parents, but why does she insist on postponing her life every year. She will not be able to take a teaching job she is being handed. Literally handed, by her former teacher. Somehow she gets pregnant and is scheduled to deliver right as the school year starts. Funny, huh?

Mom and Dad are on a cruise, so I have spent most of my nights with LLS and LLSP at their house, last night we went to hear one of the neighbor's bands. And we saw a girl we went to high school with. We talked all night. Twas fun.

I did not get a job I really wanted. They "loved me and my energy" but the person they picked would have "made the position more their own." What does that mean anyway?

I am up for a couple of other positions though, so I am not hopeless.

I got my grad school packet in the mail so I have that. If I get one of the jobs I am up for, I may have to go grad school at the actual university as I will be in that town (instead of the satellite university in my town) working anyway. I am very excited to go back to school. But since my desired program's application deadlines are in 10 days and I still have to study and take the GRE exam, get my transcripts, write an essay, complete the application and get three letters of recommendation, I will be applying for the 2009 Spring session. That deadline is in October, so I can gather and not run around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to make the Fall deadline.
