So, everyone keeps asking how my interview went. Thank you for asking; it's great that I have this much support.

( The interview went pretty well. )

Six pm on November 6th can't come fast enough. I think I may apply for another job just so not all of my eggs are in this one basket (even though this is the basket that I want...)

The last couple of days I have had such amazing encounters with strangers that I find it hard to believe that Suzette finds me abrasive.

I called for my yearly physical, which will be in December. I was talking with the nurse making my appointment, and I was like, "Doctor Balough is my primary, but I had a very good visit with Dr. Osta last year."

So she starts looking through my records, and she was like, "I'm glad you had a good experience with Dr. Osta."

I'm not sure why she said this, but I responded. "It was fun. As good fun as physicals are, that is." The nurse laughed.

The Nurse tried to get me an appointment in October, but I was like, "Oh, no, December please. It's when I'll be home from school and all." And she said that she understood, that she had just transfered to Eastern, and that she was excited to start this winter.

It was just a really good conversation with a nurse on the phone. Normally I get very gruff, over worked replies to things like that.

This morning I got up early, got dressed and left the house. I was going to my appointment for MSU's sibling study, which was at 8:20. At 8:15, I was staring at a bus map, hoping that it'd tell me where Giltner was, and a bus was just stopping. I asked the bus driver if he knew where it was and he told me to hop on. He gave me a free ride (ultimately in the wrong direction) to help me find where I was trying to go. (He mixed up Gilchrist and Giltner.)

I love it when strangers help me out, or make conversation with me.

The sibling study was really interesting. They recorded my voice, and then later I realized that they were using voice recordings of male participants during the questionaire part of the study. I think they were using photos of other participants as well. I spent the time trying to figure out what they were getting at.

Also? I got the phone interview for TfA. Sunday at 4pm, I'll be helping the interviewer get to know me better, so that they can recommend me to go to the day-long interview later in October. I hope this works out.
