Too Bad, So Sad

Judi came in to my office today to talk with me about the fact that they were going to go with someone else as advisor. But at least she let me know that I interviewed well and was likely their third choice (out of over 70)! Fact is, my competition included two women who already have their Master's degrees and several years of experience. But at least I tried! Judi told me that I interviewed quite well. But, I will still double-check with them to find out what I could do to be a better candidate next time.

I am sad about the truck costing me so very much money. After rental car fees, transmission fluid exchange cost, parts, labor, and fixing the truck's catalytic(?) converter, I'll be out almost $1000. That sucks a lot. That's dipping into my vacation money. But I will still go on vacation. To New York. I'll just have less money.
