"Sitting, Waiting, Wishing"
I feel like I'm in some sort of purgatory right now. And no, not because at this moment I'm reluctantly watching American Idol. Sanjaya is just not good by the way. Is he for real?! I digress...
Yesterday, I met with the VP of a major national market research firm here in town. Seriously, the vice president. It was a huge deal. Not everyone gets the chance to sit down and chat about jobs with the corporate second in command. So, it went well, but of course he can't just offer me a job right on the spot. The current status is him sending my resume to HR with his comments and recommendation. That's all well and good, but it leaves me to my current state, which is of sheer anxiety. I feel like I'm stuck in a middle ground, waiting to either be pushed off into rejection or lifted up into total contentment. There is so much riding on this potential job, a position in which I can see myself thriving and growing and simply enjoying, and I can't imagine how I'll feel should it not go through. I can imagine, however, the grin on my face and spring in my step should it go through. So, I'm on shaky ground, so to speak, for the time being. I'm checking my email every 26 seconds and I'm running to the phone every time it rings hoping to hear an HR rep mispronounce my name on the other end. I don't think I will have ever been so happy to hear someone stutter through my name. ;)
Wish me luck...pray...say ten Hail Marys...rub a genie in a bottle! Or just cross your fingers for me!
