I am this close to fitting 34 waist jeans. They are just a bit snug. Couple more weeks maybe.

Amp,

Post blender life involves 2/3 of my meals being taken in liquid form.

I like this thing more every day.

To contribute my own sad news, I talked in Spanish for 20 minutes with some girl while having no idea that Spanish is actually her third language and not her first. It took another 10 minutes to discover she has a boyfriend and a bit more beyond that to discover that English also isn't her first language, it's her second.

I felt like an idiot.

The fact that she may have actually been smarter than me certainly didn't help with that either.

Freaking Polish-Australian-Argentines.

Although I made some Italian girl talk to me in Italian and I understood most of it if she talked slow enough. That was a bit better for my ego.

Good news: Got a job offer today
Less good news: I'm not convinced this is a job I want to take, and I have a second interview scheduled for Tuesday, and likely another one for Tuesday or Wednesday (Monday is a holiday).

I don't want to say no. OTOH, I don't want to accept it yet.

this is a great sign zurv -- congrats! Wait it out imo; hopefully one of the other offers pans out.

Is there a time frame on accepting? Would it be possible for you to accept it now and then back out later?

Also congrats obv

Monday is Victoria Day

So, do I just ignore his email? Tell him I need time to think about it? Be honest and say that I'm talking to somebody else on Tuesday, and what to see what they have to say before I respond?

EDIT:

None given, but he asked if I could come in Tuesday to sign a contract, and start June 1st

Don't tell him you are talking to anyone. Just tell him you need a few days to make a decision.

Tell him you need to talk it over with your wife.

sigh, signing a contract seems pretty final. I'd probably go with some combo of the truth and "I need time to think about it" depending on how much better the other job potential is.
