Oh

by Calliope on June 25, 2009

Bring out the extra meds, Mother didn’t get the job that she was perfect for. As a consolation she found out that the people thought she was just right for the job, but thanks to our shit economy they have decided to not hire anyone for the moment. To add extra flavor to the ouch she heard that if she had applied for the job about a month ago she would have been a shoe in.

Oh well. Right? Only five more days for June to rock our world. You hear that, June? Mother seems to be taking the news in stride. (but I know she is super upset) Damn hope. At least I harnessed my sadness today into cleaning the house.

Here is what is keeping us going:

Captain Adorable at 11 weeks

Adventures in pants with bubble butt

Damn it that is bad news. I’m sorry Cali. Damn it! Not fair….it should have been…. I’m so sorry. Go give your mum a big hug from me please. Something really good must be just around the corner, just wish I could make the straight a little shorter for her.

Clearly even though your Mom was perfect for that job, that job was not perfect enough for her….being that she is amazing and special and wonderful beyond words. So, trust that the universe has something far more perfect planned for her. Sucks that you have to keep waiting though. Thank goodness you have gorgeous-ness with bubble butt to keep you happy!!

OOF, that sucks. Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end. One foot in front of the other.

Sorry to hear about the job…. I wish that HR people would learn to shut their faces. Telling you that if you had applied earlier is not only uninformative, it is unneccesary. As if you are going to say, “oh damn, that’s right, hang on a sec while I go back a month and try this again.” I mean seriously! Aaarrgh! Now come ooooooonnnn dooowwwn universe and play “The time is Right”!!
And the Captain Adorable picture? Oh. Made my heart melt and skip a beat and made me smile and well up with tears all at the same time. Love you so much!
