I WAS EXCELLENT

chocolatepotSooooo my jerkbrain has progressed to the "they only said your talk was good because they want to keep your confidence up" stage. No, jerkbrain! I know that's not true! Shut up!
Pretty sure I didn't get the Met job. I'm going to call the HR office tomorrow to make sure, but I think I know. Now the only ray of hope left is that Kristy from Anova emails me this week with good news. At least "very soon unemployed with book deal" is better than "very soon unemployed with no book deal". (I was going to apply for this job in Virginia for dealing with George Washington's papers, because I have racked up some time dealing with archival material, but then I really looked at it and they're preferring PhDs, so there will be dozens of PhDs with much more serious archival experience, so never mind.) (That was the only job in the whole newsletter that was even vaguely suitable for me.)
Work on the bonnet is going well. There have been no episodes of weeping or cursing; with the weight of the flannel on, it now feels like it will stay on my head. Can't wait to have an excuse to make another! I'd just get out another of my patterns and start in, except I really should start working on the gown itself.
