in the books

the interview went as expected. i came strong but got a little winded at the end (like i run a 5k). i think i did alright. i hope i did anyway. i actually learned a few things in the interview, so i can only imagine how much i'll learn in the actual program...

they said i would find out in a week or so. i'm going to try not to think about it until next week.

so with the stress cloud lifted i finally was able to take a deep breath and relax. i went into the basement to execute a guilty pleasure (college football on ps2). i turned the space heater on and after 10 minutes or so i heard a horrible 'electocution' sound and then the heater lost power. i went into the unfinished part of the basement and smelled the smoke of an electrical fire. i freaked a little, hit the breaker to that line of outlets and disassembled the outlet that smelled bad. the wire casing had combusted and started the outlet on fire. this is the line of outlets that the former homeowner had installed himself, he is an idiot. luckily, nothing else combusted inside the wall.

now i feel like i am catching a cold. this is nothing new, a stressfull period of time usually ends in me getting sick when the stress is removed. so far just a little cough and some extra phlegm. i'm going to stay on it and try to keep it at bay.

it's friday. it has been a rough (and long) week for robin and i.
