The NOAA internship I was gunning for has been filled. By someone other than me. I never even got to interview.
I have, in fact, not gotten to interview for ANYTHING yet, with the exception of my Kaplan audition this Thursday. And that's not full-time material.
Color me officially bummed out.
And WHILE I AM BITCHING, let me bring up Ms. Zoo, of whom I have spoken before during my research hell. But not spoken with *since*, although I baked her a rum cake before leaving Dallas to thank her for her (lack of) assistance, and left it at the office for her. I also sent her a bound copy of my thesis, since it seemed appropriate to do so - and I wanted the zoo to have an official record of what we learned.
She has not seen fit to take two minutes to write me an e-mail acknowledging that she even RECEIVED these things.
Nice to know I was fucking appreciated.
