My life has been pretty boring lately. I don't sleep in (can't cuz the Hubby has to get up at 6am for work). I sit around in my pj's and robe until 8 or 10 watching LMN (I'm addicted). I know there's things that need to be done around the house (little things here and there), but I can never seem to find enough ambition to do them. I've made myself look a little harder for a job, but other than that, I've turned into a lazy bum. And it's so not like me!!!
As for the TTC front, I took my Clomid last week. At first I thought the side effects were going to be super mild since I had a very mild headache for 2 days and just the very rare and occasional hot flash. Yeah, I was completely wrong. I've had so many hot flashes, I feel like I'm in menopause!! It's really rediculous. We have gorgeous weather here now, and I'm sitting in the house with the AC on and the fans blowing on me cuz this dang Clomid is giving me hot flashes like crazy! The things we put ourselves through...
I also have an upcoming appointment with Dr. M next week. If my clomid does what it's supposed to, I should be Oing around that date, so maybe we can squeeze in some morning BDing and she can do a post-coital test that day! We'll see though... a lot can happen between now and then.
And honestly...why did Jillian choose Ed? My mother is an Ed supporter, but my sister and I are more on Kiptyn's side. But then again, why did she get rid of Jake before Wes? I think reality TV has issues some times.

Seriously?!?!?!?
It's been over 3 weeks since I interviewed for that job. It took them 3 weeks AFTER the job closed to contact me for an interview. Three weeks after the interview and I was still waiting to hear back from them - either yay or nay.
Today I got my answer.
I went to the mailbox to see if the mail had even come yet (long story for another day). The only piece of mail was an envelope that had a return address of the place I interviewed for. I opened the envelope expecting something along the lines of "We apologize to inform you that the position has been filled. Try again next time." Yeah, that's so not what I got. Here's an excerpt:
"[insert business name] insituted a hiring freeze effective 7-1-09 and therefore we are not able to hire for this position at this time. ... Congratulations, we are pleased to inform you that your name is on our eligibility list. Your name will remain on the eligibility list for 6 months. ..." blah blah blah
Granted, I was grateful to finally hear something back on the position, but honestly, when I read the fact about the hiring freeze I was completely shocked. I interviewed only 2 days before that and I'm not stupid. Things like that typically don't drop out of the sky unannounced. It really makes me wonder if they knew about the hiring freeze coming down but wanted to still do the interviews just in case the economy makes a huge recovery and a position opens up in the next few months. I just can't believe that I've waited and wasted all of this time waiting to hear back from them. I could have been in another position already. ugh....

Is anyone else
having issues when you try to post a comment? In the past couple of days, I've tried to leave comments on blogs, but when I click Post/Submit (or whatever the heck it is...), the whole screen refreshes and my comment is not posted. Granted, I know some people have comment approval required, but most of us don't, so I have no clue what's going on. It's a little frustrating though.
