One of the things you have to watch out for whenever you stay in a Disney Resort is Hidden Mickeys. They're usually pretty subtle, but they're there. The top one was in the bedspread, and the other was in a small wooden shelf.

A slightly better pic of the room. Kent simply had to take a picture of the way I lace my boots.

Well, yesterday morning I had my interview for the full-time floor supervisor position that I lost last year in the downsizings. Wow... hard to believe it was a year ago. I think the interview went pretty well, but I do have to admit I'm in a bit of a quandary as to what I'll do if I don't get my job back. When I lost the position a year ago it was a pretty hefty slap in the face, especially since my job performance had no bearing at all on the demotion. My evaluations have always been good, and I take pride in how well I do my job. So, this time, if I don't get the promotion, it will be an even bigger slap in the face. I've made no decision as to what I might do if I don't get it, but I do have a certain amount of pride, I am good at what I do, and if I don't get this promotion this time, it will basically mean that I've gone as far as I can go with this company. I really hope I'm not going to be faced with this decision. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I should find out Friday morning when I get into work.

I took a nap yesterday late afternoon--which I usually do on Tuesdays since it's the beginning of my weekend--and ended up sleeping until almost 9 PM. In fact the only reason I woke up then was because Daniel called me. Poor Daniel, I tend to be mightily incoherent when I first wake up, and he was treated to a good five minutes of sleep-filled babble before I figured out who I was talking to and that I really was awake. After I hung up with him I went and chatted a bit with the Tuesday night crowd on sff.net. I used to do a whole lot more online chat, but now I pretty much only do sff.net on Tuesday nights, and Delphi on Wednesday nights. It's nice to stay in touch with these people, but it can seriously eat up time if you're not careful.

But I didn't last long on the sff.net chat. I bailed a little after 11, and went to bed, and then didn't wake up until 10 this morning. Sheesh! I guess I'm still recovering from vacation exhaustion. Took me forever to get up and functioning like a normal (or as normal as I get) human being. Three cups of coffee and a hot shower later and I think I'm approaching coherent thought.

This is absurd. It's the middle of February, and I'm running my air conditioner. I shudder to think how brutal this summer is going to be.
