HOLY.FUCKING.SHIT

[hmpf]

Just got an invitation for an interview for the three to six-year university position for which I made my Ph.D. proposal thingie in the last few weeks.

WHAT DO I DO NOW????

(Also, wtf am I doing right, now, that I apparently did wrong the 1.5 years before?)

*boggles*

*frets*

ARRRGH!

Yay!

Fortunately, the interview isn't on any of those days! ;-)

I'm definitely free on those two days, and the weekend shouldn't be a problem either.

>What do you say?

I say: AWESOME!!!!!

Also, my Skype still doesn't work, so if we want to chat (before, after, whenever), we'd need to use IM, I'm afraid. (Kind of OT here, but I just noticed we haven't chatted in what seems like years. Probably just *a* year, but still, that's too long, too!)

Oh, and do you still have that spare copy of Skellig? 'Cos I'd still be veeeeery interested in that... ;-)

My spare copy of Skellig is here waiting for you, as are Ben Browder's autographed pic and all the other things I wanted to send you, but are definitely coming with me on the plane to Frankfurt instead, hehe.

I'm currently checking flights for 17th-19th February, as the person we're supposed to be meeting told me he's away on the previous weekend, so I'm 99% sure hubby and I will be travelling on these new dates. The meeting will be on the 18th and after that we have plenty of time off, so YAY!!! :)

Trip confirmed!

Hey there! I confirm that our trip to Frankfurt will be on 17th-19th February (with a meeting with our supplier in Langen on the 18th). This means I can finally meet you, YAY!

It's ages since I last travelled to Frankfurt and this is the first time I have to reserve a hotel there. Do you have any suggestions of a some hotel that's quite centrally-located and not too far from a train/bus connection to Frankfurt Main Airport? I think hubby and I will be taking public transport to get from the airport to the city and back, because we only take taxis when we need to reach someone quickly, otherwise it's better (and cheper) to travel by train or bus.

Can't wait to meet you and have a good chat with you face to face (finally)! And don't worry about my husband: he's used to meeting my internet friends and listening to me talk of Life on Mars and other John Simm-related stuff, so it won't bother him if we stay on the same topic for hours on end, LOL! ;)

Yay!

We need to make PLANS!

How much time do you have, and when? I'll be free completely on the 18th and the days after, I think (great timing there, your visiting *just* in the last couple of weeks of my unemployment! *g*)
