I got the job. So that's good.
On the other hand, we still have to sell the house.
Also, I'm supposed to interview Oregon's soon-to-be Senator, Jeff Merkley, on Friday. It's a phone interview, so I'm not super-panicked, but still.
Maybe one of you who's kinda good with the words wanna, um, lend me your head for an hour? We could trade. It'd be funny. You could be all, lookit me! I'm a dummy!, and annoy the shit out of everyone you work with. Or just scare your toddler to bits. Me, I could be smart and engaging and on it and know all my questions inside-out and sound really, really articulate and coherent and brilliant. Look at what you could be doing for me. No! Not for me! For Oregon! For the future of our country! For humankind!
I'll be waiting to see whose head is ready to sit on my shoulders in a few days. Just, you know, be prepared for the eventuality that I may not give it back.

Congrats on the job!
But you don't want my 8.5 months pregnant brain right now.

Ask him what he thinks of the recommendations of the Oregon Health Fund Board. Of course, before you do that, read the executive summary so you know what the hell he's responding to (or if he knows anything about it.) See here for the report - http://www.oregon.gov/OHPPR/HFB/index.shtml
(You know, a plan for health care for all Oregonians...)

You're going to do fantastic, you'll hang up the phone and be all "who the hell was that? Oh, right. It was ME!"

Of course you got the job.
And of course you'll have all the right questions at just the right time - without any help from anyone.
