I had my second interview for Spring semester this morning at the State Attorney General's Office for Health, Education and Welfare. I am getting better at this. I think I managed not to say anything dumb, nor did I imply that my interviewer wasn't good enough to get hired in Santa Clara County or say that I protested against the person I now want to work for. All in all, then, it was a good effort. I'll know by Friday if they want me or not, so that's kind of cool. But it means I'll have to say yes before even being called by the other places I applied. But maybe I should just run with it. If they ask, say yes. It seems stupid to run around turning down perfectly good job opportunities, and it will abate my generalized anxiety about finding gainful employment and references.
Tonight I am going to meet the CA supreme court justices, whom I know nothing about, in the hopes that one of them will see me and instantly ask me if I want to clerk for them next year. Hey, it could happen. I better do some research between now and then so I have something thoughtful to say should they talk to me. Gee. I sure wish Stephanie was still going with me so I'd have some moral support. Hint. Hint.

I object to your number 4 on irrelevance. I will not get a job with a supreme court justice. And i can work at the library this summer. So your number four is irrlevant.
I'd like to make a proffer, your honor. It is relevant because there were people from all walks of law life there. It was like the mixer we went to before, only co-ed. I met someone from legislative counsel, and it turns out she does what I want to do. So I am sure you could have found someone useful to talk to there.
