My partner has gone off for an interview for a new job today. It's quite a few miles away, so I hope he made it alright - the car broke down this morning! Well, it actually looked and smelt like it was going to catch fire
We called out the RAC and the guy said it was caused by a simple oil leak (some bolts had loosened
). So after clearing things up, we went on our way (to the dentist actually, for my root canal treatment, which turned out to be a waste of time as the dentist couldn't get at it and just gave me more antibiotics instead
but at least cost less than it would have
).
But anyway, the car seemed to be working okay, so we went home and my partner prepared for his interview (which, as well as getting dressed 'correctly' [ and me trying to 'tame' his rather unruly hair - fine for every day, but probably not for interviews...] also entailed going over every little peice of info he had managed to find on this company, thus stressing him out considerable
). Eventually it was time for him to leave (early, because the journey would take over an hour) and he started up the car - only to discover that oil had leaked out under the bonnet
. But he had no choice but to drive off and hope it would be okay.
I hope it was!

My partner has just rung. He got there okay and has had his interview. He says it seemed to go okay, but they have to 'discuss things' before they get back to him (I hate that, don't you?), and will let him know shortly. Either way, they are looking for someone to begin work for them straight after Christmas. He says the job looks good, the money is okay, and he would like to do it, despite the long journey there and back each day.
So now I am keeping my fingers toes and everything else crossed again - that he gets the job and, more importantly, that he gets home okay.
