cupcake_goth | Looong day

I think my interview(s)* today went really well! At the start of the day the very nice HR guy let me know that I should hear about their decision by next week; this means that in theory I won't spend the next few days obsessively hitting "Get Mail" to see if there's any news. In theory, because I know what I get like.

Interview CorpGoth Shallow Fashion Details!
- Black pumps that were custom-made for me years ago.
- Black tights.
- Black knee-length skirt (the Retroscope Fashions "dolly bustle" skirt) w/ petticoat.
- Pink menswear shirt with black silk ruffles down the front (from Lip Service).
- Black vintage Dior double-breasted blazer.
- My hair down, no hat.

Plus the usual rings, my glasses, and makeup including Aromaleigh powder, eyeshadow in Pink Portent (pale shimmery pink-beige) and Gothic (yes, seriously, because it's the best blackened burgundy I've found, and if applied lightly, is a fantastic accent/liner color) black liquid liner and mascara, and dark wine lipstick.

I am TIRED now. Besides being focused and "on" for the interview, today involved getting up, oh, four hours earlier than I have been used to, lately. The Stroppy One took me out for a (gluten-free) cupcake, and I am going to spend the rest of the evening watching silly vampire movies and PLAYING WITH MY DOLLS.

Thank you, everyone, for your good wishes!

*I interviewed with six different people. Which, in terms of interviews for full-time gigs at tech companies, is short. I've been through 10 - 12 hour interviews.

Heh, I was starting to think that was still a little outlandish for interviews... annnnd then I read you were interviewing at a tech company XD

Seattle seems to be pretty different in regards to interviewing than it was back in Boston; husband-creature has worked in tech for about 15yrs and never had a 6hr interview 'till he moved here, heh.

*crosses fingers that the job is sufficiently acquisated!* :)

this takes me back to when we went shopping for clothes for the Book Fair in Chicago - that was so funny!

You looked adorable and they will be very lucky to have you!
