Nov. 26th, 2006 12:55 amSo... another quick update. I finished the fic - and it is the longest PWP I have written so far.;) Will post tomorrow morning.:D
My extended unpaid vacation is coming to an end, and I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. Of course I am relieved to be abandoning the ranks of the unemployed... but when I think of getting horribly behind on email and LJ again, which will inevitably happen as a result of my online time being cut in half, I am suddenly not so enthusiastic anymore. I only just about caught up on the recent fiction posts and started checking out some old saved links... and now I have to forget all about them again, for I don't know how long. *sigh*
Unless some shit happens to the hiring process, which is as of yet incomplete. Someone left me a strange voice message on Friday, supposedly on behalf of my new employer (but it wasn't the nice HR lady who has been in charge of the whole thing until now), saying that they had a problem with verifying my education, as well as my employment at the dental office where I worked for about two months, three years ago - right before I was hired by the mortgage company that laid me off last winter. WTF?... I was long done with my education before I even came to this country, and no one ever gave me trouble about not being able to verify it. And as for that dentist guy whom I helped around the office for those few weeks that one summer, he is now retired, as far as I know, and I don't have his home phone number either. So good luck. I do have some old pay stubs, though, since I keep stuff like that forever - and I even know where they might be (it pays to be an anal freak sometimes, I guess). Just like my university diploma, which I know I brought with me from Poland, just in case; it's probably in one of my bedroom drawers back at my parents' house. Or at least that's where I hope it is. Good thing I'm actually supposed to visit them tomorrow. Thanks to my sister, who asked them to do the Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday instead of Thursday this year, because on Thursday she had to be there with her husband's family.;) Yeah, that's right - she gets to celebrate twice.:P Our parents weren't too happy about it, but after all Thanksgiving is a fairly recent addition to their holiday schedule (more an excuse for my mother to have a party than anything else...;D), so of course they relented. Which means I'm going to spend a good few hours there tomorrow... and on Monday I go to work. So it is possible I might become rather quiet, LJ-wise, in the near future (until I adjust to getting up at 6:30 again and going to bed before midnight, which seems plain weird right now... *sigh*). Anyway... I'll try to at least post the fic before I leave tomorrow (or today, actually, since it IS past midnight) - and then we'll see, I guess. *waves goodbye for now*
