Mexicanidad
My conversion of Nicki, my South African friend, to Mexican status is almost complete. We've celebrated Mexico's Independance Day and just this past weekend, we went to a tamale cooking demonstration. We also checked out a Day of the Dead exhibit at the Mexican Fine Arts Museum in the city. Nicki's progress is coming along fine. She will be the resident expert at out Day of the Dead Dinner. So, I will be directly all questions concerning Mexican customs and traditions to her. :)
Had a lovely Monday morning this past week. I spent most of my morning (two hours) in an interview for work. In order to hire me for a longer time than my current contract allows, I have to pass through the official university hiring process which, aparently entails marathon interview sessions. William, the sympathetic chap that he is, says that if I was interviewing for his company, it would take 6 hours.

Leander,
The next time William makes that comment about interviewing, I would repsond as follows...
"I must disagree, dear Husband, for I think the interview would last 30 seconds...the exact time it would take to register in my brain that I would have to report to you, flip over your desk, kick over the trash can, spill coffee in your lap and say "Good day to you, sir!".
Try that one on for size William. In my company, if you just show up to the interview with doughnuts, you are pretty much a lock. Real technical-like.
I think pretty much everyone who works for...or pretty much has any contact with Will feels that way.
