I am feeling much more relaxed now after getting a hold of someone at the company I interviewed with last week. They have put all hiring on hold but expect to get a hold of me, as they are indeed interested in me, by mid next week. Then they will start the background check which can take up to two weeks. So while I have to stay longer doing the inane shit I am doing now, it is looking promising that I will not be staying there long. So even if this drama goes the bad way, it doesn't really affect me as long as I stay attentive to the situation enough to get out before it goes down.
This was a different kind of day off, the first one with Sandra as my roommate, though I called in the other day and I suppose that was technically a day off as well. But this day off was a mix of going shopping for specific items with Sandra, calling in to the new company to try to get some answers, and downloading manga. I have limited internet access now, the kind of limited based on the siphoning of internet from unsecured networks with obviously more than one user on the line. So I am still reading a lot more manga than I am catching up on my shows or doing much of anything else high speed necessary.
The housemate dynamic is coming into form, some bonding occurred tonight with the four of us chatting about our days and Kristie telling her hilarious tales of teaching and general day-to-day. Ran was quite a bit tipsy and was therefore significantly more humorous and easier to get a reaction out of. I left the three to watch their terrible Jersey Shore show and from the sounds filtering through the thin structures that make of the edges of my room, they seemed to be having fun. Though they called me a party pooper for leaving. I just can not and shall never be able to endure that pointless show.
