So far, there hasn't been any substantial good news, nor the changes that will inevitably follow.
I had one job interview and another one coming up in two weeks. These are not bad news, per se, but they are just prologues that need to be developed into a good news.
Fortune cookies have been dull recently, too. "To love is to forgive" was it? And I am hardly in the mood to forgive or love amidst all these tedious errands and problems I am faced with.
Then today, I see a job opening post, dated Nov. 5, 2009.... the exact same job that I had an interview for. This does not fall in the category of "good news". In essence, it is a very bad news. I guess I knew, or perhaps I am wrong all around. Now I am persuaded to reckon that I could not convince them to make me an offer. Not surprising. They would prefer someone local, without a family, younger, perhaps. If I want this job, I should react fast. I should send a message asking if they have stopped considering me with a few up-beat words presenting my case; why they should hire me. But with my husband not seriously searching for a job, if they offer me a job with a small salary, I will have to refuse it. The ideal scenario would be for him to find a job to which he can apply for, then he applies and I will send a "touching-base-with-you" all in the next 3 days. The biggest drag will be, once again, my husband. the one I love. He is hard please. There are only one or two things that interest him professionally/intellectually. Cryogenics fluid and thermal science research. Basically, there's no job out there for him unless he can widen his academic interest.
Yet, somewhere far far faaarrrr back in my head, there's a presentiment... almost a conceit, that says I will get the offer. It feels real, but it's purely based on a hunch and a wishful thinking. There will be a good news coming on my way. There has to be.
I have to find job for my hubby now.
