Not soon enough apparently

Will and I have FINALLY been interviewed, it lasted until 2am this morning and we couldn't get to sleep until almost 3am out of sheer excitement and a bit of disappointment. Getting up for work today at 6:30am has been tough, but I dreamt of good things. The interview went well thankgoodness and we're eligible for nomination! Woohoo! Despite having gone blank-minded and not remembering all of the good bits I wanted to say, we made it. The bit of disappointment is that the first batch of programs for couples for April, May and June don't get posted until August and then programs for July, August and September don't get posted until November! Talk about waiting just to wait! If we're lucky, really lucky, our recruiter might be able to find something for us leaving in mid-late June. But that would be pushing it because we have noooo idea what finals schedule is until at least at the end of this school year in Oct/Nov.

I guess we have no option but to wait until then and just get involved in more activities to make us more competitive. It seems like a real jungle out there...dozens of couples competing for so few slots! I'm secretly hoping that something good comes up for the end of June 2006. Please, please, please.

Bittersweet.

Peace Corps really defined this word for my wife and I.

Good luck with the wait; you'll find lots of good things to do with it.
