Jobless in Edmonton

Well, it's been a whole week with not so much as a peep from the accounting firm. In my mind, that can only mean bad things. If you want someone and you know they are looking for a job, you'd move quickly right, not drag your feet. After all, if you move too slow they may have accepted another job before you get back to them with your offer right? Sooooo, with that logic in mind, I'm going to ask a question to the more job-savvy people in the crowd... Is it time I phoned them to request some feedback to put to use in future interviews? Or should I give them a little longer?

In other news, I am sore, sooooo very sore. I went to fighter practice last night and actually got into loaned armour for the first time in forever. I am not powering my shots in the least, and it's the most I can do to hold the shield up, I can't even think about getting it into the right spot to block an incoming weapon. But they guys seem pretty happy with the fact that I am unblinking and unflinching when taking head shots. So it seems that if there was a test, I passed. And besides, it was fun. Very glad I am making decent progress on my own armour :) Armouring and practice are both canceled this weekend as my veteran has other commitments and the armoury is going to be closed for Hjalti to attend a blacksmithing workshop, so maybe I will try to get a gambeson made.

That's about all the news here.

Stop worrying and go do some laundry

Okay, all things are not a disaster yet. The vet does not think I have fleas and the accounting firm wasn't going to get back to me until early next week anyway (the person in charge of hiring took a vacation this week - annoying for me, but that's life eh?).

So, time to stop worrying and get some of this cleaning done. I ripped the place apart when I thought I had fleas and since it's all ripped to shit anyhow, I might as well clean it while it's all in pieces before I put it back together.

I'd put my mood as relieved, but really, it's not relief so much as more waiting.
