Shaping young minds, update
Just a note to say that I had my interview with the Americorps folks in NC Wednesday, and I think it went okay, although it was sort hard to tell on my end because I was still recovering from whatever tried to rip out my guts and beat me with them over the weekend.
Weirdly enough, after Sun and Mon's hurl-and-curl marathon, Tuesday I felt tired, but more or less fine. Then Wednesday, I wake up in a state that can only be described as completely and utterly stoned. I'm guessing low blood sugar or pressure, or maybe even electrolyte imbalance from all the purging. But in any case, it was like I was completely detached from reality and my body was on it's own little buzzy trip. Nearly boiled my toes making my morning tea, because it took almost a whole second for the fact that the water had reached the top of the mug and was pouring over to reach my brain and then amble down to my arm so I could stop pouring boiling water all over the place.
Between absent reflexes, dizziness, the whole detached/floaty feeling and whatnot, I'm surprised I was even coherent. But hubs said I sounded great while he was up here changing his clothes at one point (frighteningly enough, I didn't even realize he was up here at the time, despite the fact that he was not more than 10 feet away from me).
However, I do think I did okay - the weirdness was more of a body thing than a mind thing, although my thinking was slowed down some, which may have been an actual bonus, canceling out, as it did, any nervous "speed up" that might have occured. And the folks on the other end made pleasant remarks about my replies and seemed not to run screaming in the other direction, so I'm calling it a win.
I should know by next Friday, one way or the other. Crossing fingers! x*-*x
