i still have not heard back from the position for which i interviewed.

even though i have called.

and waited.

and cried.

i am so f**king annoyed right now. i realize that i should be grateful for having had an interview but jesus i don't know whether i'm being impatient or being ignored or what.

i can't remember if i've covered this, but i am terrified of mice. don't ask me why. i don't have a problem with snakes, spiders, bugs, rats (although i think they are gross), hamsters, squirrels or anything else. it's something about mice that creep me out.

anyway, nunemaker had a mouse for two weeks and it liked to play in my trashcan at night. our building's exterminator only set out the poison traps and apparently the mice are supposed to eat the poison, leave the building to look for water and then die die die. that's always seemed suspicious to me but whatever.

so friday, the mouse (which is usually nocturnal) ran past my co-worker/office mate's desk while i was at lunch and i had to spend the rest of my afternoon in another office. i thought that behavior was weird since they don't come out during the day usually and they are typically scared by noise. i think it was starting to go crazy from the poison or something because over the weekend, the mouse died. on my desk. DEAD. ON. MY. DESK.

so this morning i got to work and kept smelling (what i thought was) rotten fruit. turns out the mouse had died under my office plant and behind my speakers. i worked for an hour trying to just ignore the smell and finally got up to ask my office mate to smell my desk (because i thought i was going crazy) and...there it was.

*shudder*

is that bad omen or something? sheesh.
