Out Of My Control… And Comfort Zone

James is somewhere in the midst of his interviews as I type this, and I’m somewhere halfway between hyperventilation, barfing, and stuffing my face with my latest batch of fudge pecan brownies while guzzling a lethal dose of coffee.

I must have had the nervous shits 7 times in the last 24 hours, and I’m not even the one with my balls stuck in a nutcracker and a dry-erase marker in my hand trying my damnedest to impress the geekiest of the geeks by scribbling out some kind of gibberish in the language of Computer Geek while surrounded by geeks who just might be geekier than I am IF THAT’S EVEN POSSIBLE.

But I’m not freaking out or anything.  Really.  I’M JUST FINE.

Maybe I should call my psychiatrist for a sedative.  A STRONG ONE.

*inhale* *exhale*

Okay, I feel a little betterafter getting that out.  Sorry ’bout that…

Anyone else this neurotic when their significant other is interviewing for a new job, or am I the only nutso?

    He isn’t just interviewing for a new job…he’s interviewing for a new life for you guys. That is a big deal and worthy of a little nervousness.
    Good luck.

    Quit stressing, you KNOW James is the wiz kid and did awesome on the interviews. I’m almost certain he got it…

    Whew! Glad those interviews are over! I did my best, so I feel good about it. If they don’t pick me (Lord, PLEASE let them pick me!), then I’ll know it wasn’t meant to be.

    As for the nervous shits…you know how the old saying goes, “Out with the bad…” :-D

    Cross your fingers for me!!

    LOL… hey, you know EVERYONE gets the nervous shits. No embarrassment in that, right? Or maybe I *should* be embarrassed that I admitted it… heh, NOPE!

    James… I’ve got ‘em crossed so tight I believe the circulation has been cut right off. If they fall off, it’s your fault.

    I like what the first poster said – “He isn’t just interviewing for a new job…he’s interviewing for a new life for you guys.” That sums it up and I’d be nervous too!

    Kent and I about a year and a half ago were interviewing for jobs in the same department of another company. Obviously, they could only hire one of us. I was so stressed because I wanted HIM to get the job so badly! Luckily he did :)

    Haha right, I guess I shouldn’t have expected anything but the blunt truth when I clicked on your blog :)
