honing interview skills

A very long time ago, when I was still married, a friend was over and opened my fridge to get a beer.

Inside was a can of that really foul (fake) whip cream that my kids sometimes beg me to buy.

The friend said Look at you! So wild! 

And I thought I really must be missing something. In life.

Ummm we were going to put it on jello.

You see, when you are dating you are interviewing for the job. And you might stay up all night trying to ensure you get it or to figure out if you want it.

When you are married you have the job with no chance of advancement or promotion so you sometimes sit at your desk and sharpen pencils and pretend to work hard.

Have I lost you?

Last night I went to the home of very good long term happily married friends for dinner and this is what I brought for them.

But I did not stay for dessert.
