I really did have good thoughts

One would hope that I add something to the world- be it good, bad, or indifferent- Me

There were several times this week when I thought to myself that I should blog. I had interesting thoughts about the overdrive of America (read, panic attack over work, gym, boyfriend, weddings, etc.); thoughts about the impending doom of the American people (really, do we really have to talk about that); thoughts about arguments with significant others (I think they are okay, as long as their productive).

However, at this moment, all I can really think about is the feeling of impending doom of my school, my department and potentially my job.

I wrote a whole long thing... and then I deleted it. Then I remembered that by writing this down someone else could find it, and talk about it, and that was no good.

So I'll be a little abstract with my thoughts, and yet, a little more focused.

I've just gone through my first 'we're hiring a high-level administrator at a school' hiring process. It certainly was interesting. I had the opportunity to interact with two candidates. We had to do for one candidate what we did for the other, which confused me a little because one candidate already works here.

At the end of it though, the whole affair didn't inspire any confidence. How do you get confidence when you're asking an Interim position to help hire a permanent position. What happens if the new higher person doesn't like who the Interim hired?

I'm excited for one of the candidates, dreading the other. Only time, and a few guys sitting in a room, will tell.

On a personal note, HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI AND CHRIS!
