Changes

I never got a phone call from Big Brothers Big Sisters but I did get an email, which asked me to come in for a second interview. I did just that and asked the E.D. lots of questions about the position. I think that it went really well, I felt comfortable around her and we laughed and joked. It was great. She told me that she would be in contact with my by Aug 11th.
Today is Aug 14th and I haven't heard an answer either way. I actually don't want the job but even a simply rejection would have been polite. I don't want the job because I got promoted at my work. While the current SSW of the group home fell down the stairs I asked if it were possible to replace him, it took a lot of waiting and a lot of frustration on my end as I saw the house begin to crumble but eventually my supervisor called me and offered a contact position until the SSW returns.
So as it turns out I am the acting SSW of a group home. It's pretty exciting. I have been given a list of duties that I am to complete, which is a bit overwhelming because my orientation to the job was short and sweet but I think that I can pull through.

On a personal note I am going through a breakup. We were together for almost four years. My promotion could not have come at a better time. I hate having these lull moments in my day where I think of something that I know he would have thought was interesting or funny and then I realize that I have no one to talk to. Or at least to talk to on the degree that I talked to him. I am lonely, I spend a lot more time around my house. I love my family so it isn't torture but I would like to be outside socializing. I suppose that it is going to take a long time to move on, filled with times where I felt like I have moved on but then reality checks that make me feel otherwise.

Tokyo Police Club on Saturday?
