And the band played on...

Or rather, 'And the search dragged on'. Because I called today at 10.30 promptly and was told that she had two other people she had to interview, but would get back to me by Tuesday. Basically the whole thing about calling today was just to make sure I was actually interested in the job. Argh... So that was disappointing/frustrating. And I spent the day doing a whole lot of nothing. Well, that's not strictly true, I did a fair bit of fiction-reading. I'm gradually working my way towards Winston Churchill's volumes on WWII, but I'm holding that off until the end of the fiction.

I did find out that if you add enough garlic, paprika and salt to tomato soup, it can in fact be edible by itself as a lunch. Although I'm still not terribly fond of it. The only way I like it is in relatively small quantities with copious amounts of grilled cheese sandwich...

What else? Daily dropped in today for a short visit- her ride stranded her high and dry (there aren't many other options in FR proper) in town, so she was stuck with us until Avrilyn and THE Joe took her over to her brother's house.

And Mom called today. This event precipitated an unscheduled Holy Hour- I definitely needed to chat with Jesus for a bit after that. So that was nice.

Even nicer- coming home to housemates who made steak (with mushrooms and onions!!) and served it with chips and dip too!:D After nothing but tomato soup, it was _really_ good! I wonder if they've started a secret society to see that I don't starve... One bad thing about a common pantry is everyone can see that my supplies consist largely of chicken broth and oat bran...

Now, the dishes await me...

Tomorrow- I'm applying to Subway, going to the bank, and returning some library books.
