Yes or no? Could it be so?

Today I had a job interview.

It's definitely been quite a day. I think the interview went well overall. I felt like I listened a lot, and didn't get a chance to say many of the things I had thought long and hard about saying. It's been a long time since I've interviewed anywhere, so I hope I wasn't too rusty. If anything, I think the lack of interview experience worked in my favor. I don't particularly like memorized, self-glorifying statements and the whole process. This felt more personal, which I enjoyed & made me feel more at ease. I think I had a decent chance to express who I really was and what I'm capable of without having to talk myself up.

To be quite honest, I probably wouldn't have pursued any other job. It's not like I was looking adamantly - I've been happy to research ways to make extra cash with my creativity & crafty...ness. This one posting in the paper jumped out at me, however, and it proclaimed "Ashley, this is perfect for you. You couldn't have asked for something more tailor-made for you. Apply now. Don't put it off. This job needs you." So, I went for it and e-mailed my resume. Within a few days, I got a phone call. Hence the interview.

They have a few more people to talk to. Updates in a few days if/when I get a callback. No jinxes.

If I haven't been driving, I've been on my feet pretty much all day. I am SO ready to pass out right now. Here's a rundown of my crazy insane day (yes, this is crazy insane compared to most days)...
- Got up 1 hour earlier than normal
- Dropped Tiegan off at her grandma's, took Jason to work
- Stopped at parents' house, used their printer
- Went to interview
- Back to parents' house
- Took mom to have some bloodwork done @ the hospital
- Went shopping @ Elder Beerman (clothes) and Walmart (hair dye) with mom
- Had Tiegan dropped off at my parents' house, had lunch
- Went shopping @ Target for Tiegan's Easter basket stuff with mom
- Back to parents' house
- Ate some strawberries
- Took a bath (ahhhhhhh... so nice... OK so I wasn't on my feet here)
- Picked up Jason from work
- Stopped at Burger King on the way home after realizing I'd only eaten a few strawberries today
- Put Tiegan to bed
- Put together & hid Tiegan's Easter basket

aaand here I am. Now I'm going to bed, then I will probably enjoy my Easter weekend and take lots of pictures of Tiegan coloring/hunting for eggs. Will try to stay busy and keep my mind occupied so I don't go crazy wondering whether or not I'll get a callback for the job...
