I Drew This

I’ve been neglecting this blog of late but with reason.

Full-on job-search mode has been the order of the day, so every spare minute has been spent putting together a profession folio site. I had an interview this morning, which was a good motivator in getting the site up, so all I had to do this afternoon was send the prospective employer a link, so they can see all my great work in one location.

The interview went well. Very well. So well, I’m more nervous now than I was before I went to it. So nervous, I’m getting all jittery and distracted not knowing how I’m going to last till Friday, when I’m expected to hear back. And now that the interview’s over, I’m coming down all tired because I’ve probably been more worked up for it than I’d realised, or had time to stop and think about. And now I have nothing to do but wait, so my body is telling me to rest while I’m doing it.

But you can’t be nervous and tired at the same time. It’s not good. You can’t sleep you’re so nervous and you can’t calm down because you can’t sleep. You just get more tired and more nervous. It’s one of those catchy-number things I’ve read about.

Everybody, cross your fingers. Now.
