i’m ridiculous.

My Monday evening:

6:55 p.m.- leave my apartment to go to the airport
7:03 p.m.- thinking “hmm…did i pack everything? Charger? check. Bobby pins?…ANTI CHECK”
7:04 p.m.- Freak out. HOW CAN I INTERVIEW IF MY HAIR IS ALL OVER THE PLACE? I CAN’T TIE IT UP CAUSE I’ll LOOK LIKE A FLYING ATTENDANT. I CAN’T PART IT BECAUSE MY BANGS ARE TOO LONG. I CAN’T PARTIALLY TIE IT UP BECAUSE I’LL LOOK FLAT HEADED. I CAN’T DO A BUN CAUSE THEN I’LL LOOK LIKE AN ANGRY CHINESE COMMUNIST.
7:05 p.m.- Where is the nearest target? oh yes. there’s one off Belt Line North.Do I have TIME?!?!
7:06 p.m.- Calculating the time it’ll take me from that exact location to Target, the time I will spend in Target, the time it’ll take to get to the airport, the time it’ll take to go through security…etc. Get my drift?
7:12 p.m.- See a target, but misses exit. DAMMIT.
7:15 p.m.- FINALLY find a place to U-TURN
7:18-7:20p.m.- purchase pins. IN AND OUT. (the check out lady asked me why I was in such a rush to get bobby pins, and I lied telling her it was for a dance recital. Ashamed.)
7:20 p.m.- rush to airport
7:45p.m.- waiting at terminal C8.
7:50 p.m.- Call Anita

Flight time: 8:35 p.m.

me: anita. The worse thing happened to me. I am at the airport, but OMG.
anita: oh no! what happened
Me: so, I freaked out driving to the airport because I forgot to pack bobby pins. so then, i just HAD to find a target to get bobby pins! So first, I miss my exit. So I had to make this ridiculous u-turn that took freaking forever.(explains the above story)
anita: umm. OK. *in a very sympathetic voice* I completely understand the importance of hair and hair products…
me: YES. ITS SO IMPORTANT.
anita: ok (sounds exasperated)
me: so I finally get to Target and speed my way to the airport.
anita: ok. stephanie, and then?
me: and now, I am at the airport.
anita: …ok…so what’s the worse thing that happened?
me: that i forgot bobby pins and had to go to Target to get it.
anita: I thought you missed your flight.
me: i’m going crazy huh?
anita: umm…just a little. common stephanie, you freaked out over bobby pins.
me: dammit.
anita: breath!!

My interview on Tuesday was 4 hrs long. I basically met with 5 members from Huron Consulting Group. I asked them all the questions and they simply answered. I’ll find out in the next couple of days if I get the job. YIKES.
