And two steps back...

Alright, so today was a very packed day... Very much a rollercoaster. In the interests of needing to vent right now this post will be highly negative, I will follow later with accounts of today's coolness.

So... I didn't get my animal care internship. I happened to mention to Laurie (kangaroo keeper) that I hadn't yet heard anything back about whether I had gotten it or not... She, being the sweet heart she is, went and asked Ken for me... Which I appreciate more then she could ever know because he wasn't going to call me. Apparently because he didn't know what to tell me. See, I am completely qualified, and probaby would have gotten it for sure. But rumor is Ken had to make some affirmative action hires which pushed me down the list and out of the running. DAMNIT I AM SO PISSED! This is really frustrating to me. To have been this close to my dream job only to get smacked away at the last minute?! It really hurts...

Sigh.
