A weary traveler

First trip to the dentist!

NOOOOOO, my PHOOOOONNNEEE

Yet another evening battling what I should be doing vs what I am doing.  I have gotten in quite a bit of review time for my interview tomorrow.  I'm feeling confident and not overly nervous.  My boss reminded that if I keep my passion in mind I'll stay true to myself.  I agree with him 100%.  Everything comes back to me wanting to teach and as long as I stay focused on it, I'm golden.

Today's travel was just crazy.  Delayed for maintenance by 1.5 hours leaving WV.  This meant no time for yummy foods in ATL.  Instead I had enough time for a conference call and to talk with my old boss.  He's part of the interview panel, unfortunately I don't think it will be mine.  He works in the centralized environments and I'm sure he'll focus on those candidates.

I realize that IL is not my home, but it kinda feels like it.  As soon as I got my rental car I was off to shop at some of my favorite spots.  And since this town has the most chain restaurants, I had my pick for dinner.  I opted for Noodles, you carb up for interviews like marathons right?

Now I'm laying in bed, with my interview prep materials sprawled all over, blogging and looking at Pinterest.  I need to go to bed!  I have a 9am conference call and I want to be showered and have Starbucks in hand before it starts.  My hope is I can steal about 30 min of my bosses time and go over a couple last minute questions I have.  Nothing like cramming it all in at the end, thankfully I work well under pressure.

Instead I think I'll watch some Big Bang.  I love me some Sheldon!
