By This Time Tomorrow

in Teaching

. . . I will be sitting in a conference room.

. . . I will be answering questions about my teaching methods.

. . . I will have driven 7 hours.

. . . I will have hopefully had a good night’s rest.

. . . I will hopefully not forget my portfolio,

. . . or have a run in my pantyhose,

. . . or a wrinkle in my shirt.

I have not slept for more than 4 hours a night since I was contacted about interviewing for a teaching position in Casper, Wyoming, two weeks ago.

My emotions have run the gammet of excited, confident, skeptical, delusional, worried, nervous, disbelief, denial, hope, fear, and dread.  Lets just say that I am worn out.

At night I have been kept awake by my overactive brain going over any interview question I could think of.

I have researched the school and in fact feel as though I have their website memorized.

And it will all be over in less than an hour.

So, by three o’clock tomorrow

. . . I will be in my car, on the way home, somewhere in Wyoming.

. . . I will be exhausted.

. . . I will have probably run the gammet of emotions about my interview.

. . . I will have probably talked Christi’s ear off about the interview and analyzed every single second of it.

. . . I will have called my mother and done the same thing.

But hopefully, I will know one way or the other what the decision is.  And as soon as I know – you’ll know.  Thank you, everyone, for your support, encouragement, kind words, and belief in me.
