Stroke of good fortune for me today. A place I'd applied to a couple months ago called me up out of the blue this morning. And when I say "a place", I mean a potential employing company, not an agency, and when I say a company, I mean the guy who runs it. Apparently my eclectic resume fits their needs perfectly -- Princeton grad, writing/tech writing skills, programmer in .NET, and no BSing in what turned out to be a first telephone interview. He decided he liked me, sent me a link to an online reasoning assessment (first time I've ever seen a test that assessed your abilities to draw inferences, determine the strength of arguments, and identify implicit assumptions), and told me if I did well on it, they'd have me in for an in-person interview by Wednesday, with an all-day final round on Friday, and a yea or nay decision on hiring me by early next week.
The kicker? It's a quarter mile from where Peggy works. I drive past their building four times a day on weekdays. I'm already commuting there every day.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
