Safe and sound!

The Spatulator has arrived! I picked him up at the United Cargo terminal an hour ago. He was awfully sedate on the drive home (though he hadn't been medically sedated). But, now that he's in the house, he's taking over in true style. Exploring everything and scratching at the door saying "I wanna explore MORE!" He's used the litterbox, which is definitely good, and he's currently eating and drinking.

In other news, Job #4 just made me a counter offer. It's not a great offer - only slightly higher than their earlier offer, and still substantially (i.e. more than 10%) lower than the higher offer. But, lots to think about - good benefits, closer to home, more basic work. I think I'm going to call a former co-student to ask her thoughts.

Interview with Company #4!

I'm off to interview #4 with a mid-sized geotechnical company about 20 minutes away. They look interesting, though a bit rigidly structured and perhaps with not quite the opportunities for growth. We shall see!

Think happy thoughts for me from 10am-11am east coast time, if you're even awake!
