Not busy or bad, but the evening’s tasks were emotionally weighted, after a day of fairly intense geekery. I let myself veg out on some Torchlight after. Felt good.

Hard to handle disappointment when the job sounds cool and/or you’re hungry, but remember that you’re interviewing them too.

Look for the red flags. What they expected of your pandemic time tells you what they’ll expect of your nights and weekends. All of them.

Just had a random idea for folks (like me) who have trouble with the “do you have any questions for us?” stage of the interview.

I respect wisdom and care. In some that’s expressed in the beatific manner of say a Fred Rogers.

Other folks share wisdom with a string of profanities that would melt the ears off a statue.

I react to the delivery first, but ultimately I care about what they’re saying and why.

Out with the pups. Loud Dog starts waking the other way with all her might. Takes me a second to realize she doesn’t want to be near those kids playing ball.

Good social distancing.

How you know it was meant to be:

Just like me, she loses things and then finds them in the first place she looked.
