Either it’s merely a good day, or things are taking a turn for the better for me.
I had a job interview which was expected to just be a three-month long temp assignment. It turns out that the man who interviewed me says I most likely will get the position — and it’s likely to go permanent as well. A small step in the right direction, but I’ll take what I get!
But that’s not good enough. I came home and started to water the lawn, and a butterfly was attracted to my blue dress shirt enough to land on me and crawl over it! OK, sure, it was more charming when it happened than it sounds telling the story.
I’d like to say it was my own natural sweetness that attracted the butterfly, but I know enough to realize it was most likely the wild flowers in the garden.
Edited at 2:50: I’m not the kind of person who believes in supernatural signs or portents, having had too many false alarms in my younger days. But I guess you can say that my good mood was a “sign” that the interview went well. How well? Well, I just got the good news that I’ve been hired. Now, all I have to do is like the job (or be able to stand it), do it well, and get that offer to make it permanent.
