deemoyza- My job search continues, though I take heart in the fact that I have had glimmers of interest from jobs I wouldn't actually mind holding. Last week, I got the official decision on the job whose interview I botched, though I'd pretty much accepted the result from the get-go. I also had to cancel another interview because life happened and I couldn't spend a week cramming my brain with Titanic facts (which don't particularly interest me, anyway). But I'm currently in the middle of the interview process with another museum here in town; they'd like me to take a tour first (I last visited in like, 2014), and then set up an in-person interview (to follow up on the phone interview I had last week). It seems like a fun place to work, and the pay and benefits are decent; I only wish that it wasn't swing shift hours, but that's due to the nature of the museum, and nothing can be done about that. So, fingers crossed!
- My mother and I got our updated boosters yesterday. A smidge of fever last night, and a little sore today, but nothing too bad. Certainly better than my first booster, when my lymph nodes swelled up and I couldn't put my arm down all the way for a few days. XD But I feel pretty good about being up to date on vaccines. Next up, flu shot! XP
- I still haven't done much writing. I was hoping that once I offloaded the stress from my old job, I would be able to focus more on my creative pursuits, but life has a way of finding new avenues of stress, and I just can't quite focus. But I keep trying, because what else is there to do?
All in all, though, I'm doing all right. I'm certainly over my bout of petty jealousy from a few weeks ago, and trying to focus on building my own life in roughly the shape and style I want it to be. :)
