Quick bit about my interview. Also Lost Girl, Rizzoli and Isles, and Foxy & Co

[milleniumgypsy]

I'm so sleepy, oh my pudding. I'm going to die. But I wanted to write a bit.

I think my interview went alright. It might be silly, but I'd been RPing my AU Hiddles character on twitter during the morning and I think I ended up also channeling Hiddles into my interview as well as Loki. ehehehe

Before the interview I saw most of your encouraging comments in my email, which was shiny! Also Scottie messaged me and said "May all those you meet understand your worth, Lokidottir." which I though was absolutely amazing, you don't even know. n_n'

One thing stood out in the interview to me. I had a moment with one of the women interviewing me (there was a group of three interviewing). She'd also worked in my Abyss, but in a different capacity. The conversation that happened because of this amounted to basically laughing about how everyone in the Abyss wished me dead (everyone would be an overstatement... I hope, but it is true) and how awful and stressful and dangerous and etc it was, "and yet you're still smiling!" <-actual quote

It's cute that you think that you think my smile is genuine.
SUCESSFUL LOKI CHANNELING YUS~
I think this is one of the reasons interviews are so stressful. Let's talk about my PTSD like it's positive. e_e
The other interviewers didn't really get it never having been there, but the first lady did and most people don't. Not that I'm very good about talking about my feelings, but still. I'm hoping that writing this out will keep the cats in check. (Apologies for this btw)

Still, even with that my day was actually pretty great. The interview otherwise wasn't too bad, and the data entry part went ridicously well. I had 15 minutes to enter as much as I could of something, and I finished in 10.

Twitter RP continues to be very enjoyable. xD Have a gratutitous gif related to today's adventures. xD

(I might do something a bit less silly talking about this later)

Also my walk home was sunny, which was amazing, and it wasn't super cold. The snow is still bad on the trails, but they finally cleared the sidewalks so I could walk home much easier.

Scottie was amazing and had a really nice dinner ready when I got home, complete with orange chocolate chip cookies! We cuddled and watched some tv- Rizzoli and Isles, Lost Girl, and the first episode of Foxy & Co.

Rizzoli and Isles was pretty cute. Sad about the end though.

The episode of Lost Girl that I watched tonight was Groundhog Fae. That episode was hilarious. pffft Vex! Dyson and Lauren! Bo and Tamsin! Beefcake dude! ehehehe I've also decided that I don't need to pick a team to be on. I just ship Bo with everyone, which seems very appropriate.

Foxy and Co was interesting. I don't like it as much as Face-Off, but I am glad that all those Face-Off people got something after the show. Especially considering only one of them had won before!

Wha--?

Okay, I don't the backstory behind this, but it sounds a bit . . . classless to bring it up that way. Unless I'm missing something here. I've also been told I have a nice smile, which strikes me as odd depending on who's saying it, but yeah, talking about how X number of people totally hate you like it's funny--uh, no, I wouldn't be terribly impressed.

You sure you want to work for these people? I'm glad your interview went well and all, but that would give me the all-overs.

Cookies make everything better. Cookies, marathoning, and tea.

Sorry about the lack of backstory! I'm not very good at talking about my feelings (unless they're happy feelings, but that usually just comes out as flailing, so maybe that doesn't actually count) and I run most of my PTSD stuff though a Loki filter because that's what works for me. n_n' It probably makes more sense in my head, but without doing that I'd probably keep it all in and that's probably bad. lol (I don't post about this sort of stuff very often though.)

I do agree that it was kind of classless, but I think the first woman was trying to share a common experience that most people don't get. The way everyone else ran with it was headdesk worthy though. :P Yes I get it people actually wanted me dead but that's not all that funny if you think about it for a second. :P

Though... I already work for these people, I'm applying for a higher position where I already work. n_n' (that has it's own issues eheh)

Cookies and marathoning (especially with cuddles!) do make everything better! I was just missing the tea (though I do love tea). xD

Oh please, don't apologize--just wasn't following the finer details is all. I get you. There's a few things I don't like talking about even on LJ, and I have a few filters myself. (It'll probably come out in more detail one day. . .) Just sticking with fandom-flail is easier sometimes.

Ah. So it was more of a Just Not Getting it reaction, maybe? As opposed to deliberately vindictive? Still really not seeing the funny, but people are weird.

Ooooooh, never mind then. (Sorry.)
