So, here are my plans for the next week and a half or so:
Wednesday, 4/21 – Leave Apex, NC, around 7 AM EDT, drive to Hopkinsville, KY, arriving around 5 PM CDT.
Thursday, 4/22 – Interview at Amfine Chemicals at 10 AM, to last 2-3 hours. After interview, drive to Urbana, IL and spend the night with a radiowuff.
Friday, 4/23 – Work my way up to Chicago, arriving sometime before rush hour. Kill some time until 9 PM, when I pick up takaza at O’Hare. Retreat to Z’ha’dum, whose kind owner will be putting us up for the duration.
Saturday, 4/24 – Morning/afternoon spent with Takaza’s mom. Plans in flux for the evening, but will probably end up bowling with the LAFF folk (RSVP to come, Butterscotchvix!)
Sunday, 4/25 – Midwest FurFest staff meeting. Small dinner with friends afterwards, and early bedtime.
Monday, 4/26 – Take Takaza to O’Hare in time for his 6:51 AM flight. Argh.
Rest of week, through Thursday, 4/29 – Look for jobs in the Chicago area. Short-term, contract, whatever I can find.
Friday, 4/30 – Drive back to Apex, NC. Collapse. Prepare to return to Chicago if hunt has been successful.
Busy busy!
@whee. The first part fo the week trip sounds OK, but the job-hunting – well, that’s gonna suck.
I’ve made it abundantly clear to the company that I interviewed last week that if they give the word, I’ll drop everything and get my butt back to NC to start work immediately.
Hope the jobs hunts are productive and all that.
And you and Dan are coming into Chicago? Damn it…and I planned on being up in Mad-town this weekend.

Not doing the bowling thing then? If you do, we could chatter away. We really need to sit down and do some chatting at some point, you silly hedgehog.
Need to sit down and do some chatting at some point? Sounds potentially serious.
If it is, I could re-arrange my schedule a bit.
Nahh, just been a while since we have been able to sit down and chat face to face. they’ll be other times we can catch up with each other.
Good luck on the job hunt! Have a good trip.
Best wishes for a safe trip, successful job hunt, and enjoyable times with friends.

Best of luck to you both! You know our thoughts and prayers are with you in this. I really hope this works for you. I wish I could say or do more in support of your endeavor. Me, I’ll be at Wolf Park on the 24th. Wish you could be there too! But it sounds like you already have your plate full. Take care!
