Good Sign : )

Dear Diary,

I sent out my first handful of resumes yesterday and today I got a very encouraging call for a phone interview. I was flattered and it helped ease some of the angst of the unknown. It helped that he said they had already begun phone interviews but when my application arrive all five members on the search committee decided to squeeze me into the interview schedule. YAY!

And last night I got a similar reply from a library I applied to. They said if I can get my letters of reference to them by Thursday they would consider my application even though the deadline had passed a few weeks ago. Phew! So all in all I'd say I'm off to a good start.
