I didn't even have time to post about my interveiew before I found out I did not get the job. They didn't like the way I answered one question, and said the slit in my skirt was too high. Three people saw me in this skirt, and no one mentioned to me that it might be inappropriate. I guess I should have seen it. It is, however, the same skirt I wore to the LUV at First Bite Luncheon where I met Colleen...and she never mentioned it being too short. In fact, I do remember her saying to me (I was sitting at her table and met her a few times) how we (being the people in the group standing around the table with her) looked nice, and how great it was to see us all dressed up and looking professional. So...inflight has higher standards than Colleen...check!

Chicago itself was great, aside from Nicky having a case of the Mondays. I got in on time and made it to Cat's with no event. As soon as I walked in Nicky exclaimed to me, "I'm potty trained!" several times. Thirty minutes later he wet himself on our walk to the grocery store. Don't count those chickens yet, Nicky. He's also started to build giant monoliths out of big, tiny-hand sized "leggos"...so we're working on the words "Washington Monument". In any case, we went to get food for dinner, and in t hat time Nicky managed to step un a puddle, wet himself, fall flat on his face, find a balloon, and pop said balloon. Like I said...case of the Mondays. Once we got home he ate, played for a bit, bathed, and read a few stories with us before bedtime. Cat and I hung around catching up, and eventually Erich came for the baby and the three of us sat around talking for a while.

The interview was almost successful. I thought it went really well. I got back to MDW just in time for the earlier flight home and slept all the way. Ryan and I got dinner at Johnny Rocket's before heading home to get some cleaning done. We did that for a couple days since I had off work until today. His mom came over yesterday for a couple hours, so we took her to Potbelly's.

I'm working a double today, and tomorrow we head out for a weekend in DC...if we can find a place to stay..hah.
